... Thank you, it's gorgeous - perfect shade of blue, comfortable, flattering, I think it can be dressed up for going out, and I like it so much I've just ordered another. Flowers

Mm nice!

KinNora · 31/05/2013 16:12

It looks navy on the site but I'd say it's more royal/cobalt in RL

I quite fancy this - is it long? I'm 5'5"

KinNora · 31/05/2013 16:14

Well I'm 5'2" so it's pretty much full length on me.

I got it too and it's lovely.

landofsoapandglory · 31/05/2013 18:51

Ooh, thanks I've just ordered it for my holidays.

littlemissnormal · 31/05/2013 18:52

Ooh lovely, what are the sizes like?

KinNora · 31/05/2013 19:01

I'm a 14 with an impressive frontage and the medium is perfect on me if that helps at all.

Impressive frontage Wink I like that description!

WilsonFrickett · 31/05/2013 19:15

Oh I really like that - is it definitely not too long? (another 5' 2 14 here)

Corygal · 31/05/2013 19:48

It was ME! I am so delighted you like it - isn't it the greatest. I am thinking about the orange one, as the blue is so great.

I have massive bosoms and am 5 foot 2 and bought the L - it's full-length but not overlong, and it caters to the bosom beautifully.

WilsonFrickett · 31/05/2013 19:52

Am heading into town tomorrow - will take a look :)

chanie44 · 31/05/2013 20:22

I tried on the shorter versions and the proportions were all wrong on me. I'm 5ft and petite (size 8-10 so small but not tiny) but curvy and it was huge on me. Such a shame as the dresses are lovely.

KinNora · 31/05/2013 20:29

Cory I bought the orange for my sister at the same time as I bought another blue one for me, it's going to be a very useful dress.

Aaaahh! I also fell in love with this dress! I mentioned it here so lovely, I have it in grey and have worn it loads

kefybaby · 01/06/2013 04:01

It looks lovely! I am currently bf. Would I be able to pull down the front to bf? The fabric seems quite loose and elastic.

KinNora · 01/06/2013 07:17

Hmmm, I don't know Kefy I think it might be feasible to release a boob but I reckon the fabric would pull underneath and make it uncomfortable ( I bf all 3 of my dc for bloody years so I can just about remember the clothing implications )

Oh my god I love it am going to order one today. Thank you!!

Ledkr · 01/06/2013 07:35

How is it on lumps n bumps? I have a bit of a tummy and slight saddle bags. I'm tall though.

KinNora · 01/06/2013 07:46

I'm not exactly devoid of lumps and bumps and was slightly wary of the drawstring waistline as I don't generally find them very flattering but it worked really well, it seems to skim quite effectively. Even my mum, who's not shy of criticising things I wear (understatement) and has an obsession with me being 'fat' , said that it suited me.

OP posts:
LaTrucha · 01/06/2013 07:50

I thought this also looked promising. I've ordered it to compare (glances at fat arms)

Ledkr · 01/06/2013 08:00

Sound like my mum ha ha

Ledkr · 01/06/2013 08:02

Oh I love that one trucha really lovely. You ordered from there before? Free returns??
