I've just chucked out a lot of busy print patterned dresses. I don't want to start buying them back!

Be honest ;-)

I wear dresses like that to work every day so I love them.

burnishedsilver · 24/12/2015 10:09

Bit dated.

Whether that bothers you or not is a seperate issue.

Dowser · 24/12/2015 10:13

I'm wondering if the fact I felt I needed to ask for some advice says it all really!

Bambambini · 24/12/2015 10:16

I quite like them. Not so much the middle one.

Dowser · 24/12/2015 10:16

Thanks Laurie. I'm just feeling a bit of a sense of deja vu...been there, had that.

I have an east dress, in dark maroon, busy print. If I haven't chucked it, honestly can't remember if it was one that was spared in the savage cull of two weeks ago and I don't wear it in the next week or two...then I'm probably not going to!

Certainly wouldn't buy them now, though, if I already owned them and they suited me, might consider still wearing them for some things. They're too fussy and girly for work for my taste but it all depends on the work and on personal preference.

Dowser · 24/12/2015 10:20

This is more me....just not for winter ( unless it was roomy enough for sleeves)

Sadly this one only a twelve and too small.

I don't work. I'm a pensioner ;-)

Desigual called, they want their designs back.

If you like them buy them, people should wear what makes them happy.

Mince314withIcecream · 24/12/2015 11:16

No. But then I never liked those Desigual type of designs. Less is more for me.

Dowser · 24/12/2015 12:26

Desigual. Yes. I knew they reminded me of something. I hope they are better finished of than some desigual dresses.

Horrible. I hate everything Joe Browns.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 24/12/2015 15:22

I don't like it at all. Sorry.

Indole · 24/12/2015 15:46

I love Desigual but those are horrible.

RosalieAprile · 24/12/2015 15:47

A big no from me.

Loud and dated. Just like Desigual. The polar opposite of stylish imo.

Swampmonster39 · 24/12/2015 17:22

I was going to say they look a bit like some of the Roman originals styles

Vixxfacee · 24/12/2015 17:24

Really ugly.

polyhymnia · 24/12/2015 17:28

Yes, have to admit I too dislike Joe Brown's stuff in general. Not sure who their target audience is, but guess I'm not it.

mewkins · 24/12/2015 17:31

Dated. Asos do billions of jersey dresses in plain colours which are more now.

WanderingTrolley1 · 24/12/2015 17:36

No. None of them do anything for me.

To each their own, I guess.

hollieberrie · 24/12/2015 17:38

I like them :) I wear things like that for work with tights and boots. I feel great in them! If you like them hen that's all that matters Smile

polyhymnia · 24/12/2015 17:39

Just read the first one has sparkles on too, which makes it even worse in my book. (though I don't dislike very subtle sparkle for an understated festive look).
