....can I recommend this from Gharani Strok as a more affordable alternative? Ignore the fact they have it buttoned to the top - it looks much better undone to the bustline.

Just bought it from TK Maxx. It is the perfect throw-on summer dress (obviously with the sleeves it makes it more wearable in our non-summer too over skinny jeans). It is loose fit but not baggy and comes with a good leather belt too.

BTW, I have noticed the mannequin has it on as drop waisted - looks nicer worn cinched in on the waist :)

That is very pretty and very like the Marant dress that Amanda Brooks is wearing in the new vogue

So she is!

I remember seeing Kate Moss in one last year and fell in love with it. Sadly it was sold out everywhere and eBay offerings were stupidly expensive. I will settle for this version for now Smile

I may have to venture into the new one in Bath when children back at school to investigate.

It is definitely worth a trip into hell the store.

Am wearing today with navy camisole layered beneath and hair in a messy bun in an attempt at French insouciance......

They also had a blouse in the same print.

MrsCampbellBlack · 02/06/2013 09:36
