Looking for a tea dress?

I used to have a lovely navy and white tea dress, I think you'd call it that, but it got lost at some point and I've been trying to find another for years. So cool in hot weather. Preferably soft flimsy viscose, button all the way down, tie at the back, no collar, v or scoop neck. The last one was from BHS and perfect, in navy and white. would be great for work now. I've even tried eBay but had no luck. Anyone seen any?

Dorothy Perkins usually have some in, although I haven't actually looked on their website recently.

Over 400 at shopstyle you can search by colour, price, size plus narro it down by typing in v or scoop neck + tea dress

Thanks. Sadly they haven't any that button through in the length I want.

Ebay. Ones from Boden a few years ago are always on there. Very nice quality.

happyreindeer · 19/07/2013 19:08

Sorry you have tried Ebay, well er...try again?

Budget?

loopyloou · 19/07/2013 20:35

My budget is as low as possible Wink just desperately need something loose, cool but smart for work and think a tea dress would be perfect.

I'll keep looking on eBay.

No buttons but would this work? Do you need buttons? There are loads of dresses on Zalando, many have buttons (shirt dresses) - Esprit might have something?

Size/shape/height?

loopyloou · 20/07/2013 10:48

Thanks Tapsel. That's a bit fussy for me and need short sleeves.

I just like the look with buttons, somehow slightly looser and cooler.

I'm 5 feet 7 and size 12/14, chest 34F. Dark hair and eyes.

Thanks Smile

how about this?

loopyloou · 20/07/2013 19:37

That's nice - but made of polyester Sad Would prefer cotton or viscose in this weather Smile
