Seeking a structured tartan/check dress

[Knackeredknitter67]

I came across this one www.collectif.co.uk/collectif-mainline-dolores-tai-tartan-doll-dress-p-aw150808a-c-blue_sl_-red.html and www.boden.co.uk/en-GB/Womens-Dresses/Smart-Day-Dresses/WH934/Womens-Winter-Pocket-Shift.html
I really love this one www.toa.st/uk/product/new+late+autumn/C1EDB/Check+Dress.htm?categoryref=%2fcategory.aspx%3fcategoryid%3dnew%2520late%2520autumn%26seoterm%3dlate%2520autumn%26&pcat=new+late+autumn&adimage=&clr=C1EDB_Multi
Which one would I get the most wear out of? (Think the Boden one is over priced for what it is, but hoping it will go in the sale on Monday)

I like then toast one and the first one best.

I love the toast one, it is gorgeous and unique and looks beautifully cut. But if you want to be really subtle it's probably not the best.

I really love the toast one beautiful colour and style although the styling with those shoes is not flattering even on the model. Not keen on the others I'm afraid

Hate the first. Dislike the Boden. Like the Toast one but soooooo expensive.

Saw a gorgeous one in John Lewis the other day, but can't remember which brand it was. Useless.

Laura Ashley have loads of tartan/tweed/check dresses in at the moment. Not sure if they would float your boat but worth a look.

As for those you have picked out I think the first one looks a bit like fancy dress. The Boden one is nice as a work a day dress. THe toast one is nice it terribly expensive

It might have been this but it looked nicer irl.

I love that one. Quite tempted myself actually!

Hobbs Horrible colour though.

There is this as one example from Laura Ashley.

There are lots of shift dresses as well

I've ordered the Toast one, in 10 and 12, the bust seems a little snug on the model. I quite like most of the ones linked to, but they're not quite as nice as the Toast one. Feel quite excited about it

Nice one knackered.

If you love it then you will never find anything. Which compares. I hope it matches your expectations!

I think they're all ghastly, although I like the idea in principle.

The Toast is particularly vile - it looks like upholstery material and will be very unflattering. And what are those boots?

I'm sure you can find a nice one somewhere.

Oh - just read the update - sorry!

Agree that the boots in the Toast pic are utterly ridiculous.

Haha, at upholstery!
I have the boots, but wouldn't wear with that dress, although I'm a bit uncouth and would probably wear DM's
