Has anyone got the Hush Lilly dress or tried it on?

I really like it but it was too expensive for me. It is in the sale now but no size 16 left. I usually wear an 18 on top but heard hush come up large so would have tried the 16.

There are some 14's left and all the reviews say it is really big fitting.

I would have to pay postage to return and outside the UK so usually don't buy online unless I'm sure.

I can't decide. Has anyone tried it? Is it really big?

Thanks

some of their stuff is huge, it would probably fit you but reviews say it's unflattering?

I haven't tried that one but recently ordered the Newport in a Large (I am a 14) and it was massive so I had to send it back. Worth comparing the measurements?

misspym · 10/02/2016 16:04

Thanks for the replies. Still haven't decided.

I know some of the replies say it is unflattering but there are also a few who love it.

I love the look of dresses that are a jumper with attached skirt. Has anyone seen any others I could consider?

Why not just buy a separate skirt and top? Confused

I have it and like it. I'm generally a 12/14 on top and a 10/12 on the bottom & went for the 10. I could have got away with the 8 I reckon.

Ooh op I hope you've ordered it as it out of stock now. I'm ordering myself one it's lovely!

misspym · 10/02/2016 17:58

I talked myself out of it. I think..but as it is sold out in the 14 now too it doesn't really matter.

I have it. I ordered the 10 and it fits fine. I am a 12. Its not unflattering. Its just the bit that joins the top to the skirt that is a little 'bulky' but its not bad enough to put me off. Its got a fleecy top half and feels lovely.

Greengardenpixie · 10/02/2016 19:30

Btw, there is an extra 10% off with SALE10

misspym · 11/02/2016 17:07

I ordered the 14. Hoping to be a little smaller soon anyway so fingers crossed.

Thanks greengardenpixie for the code Flowers

My dress came. The 14 is fine. I would like to have tried the 16 too but the 14 is definitely wearable.

Oh I was about to say, I am a 12 and I ordered 10- it's a little big but it's completely gorgeous, and flattering too without being too "sprayed on"
I thought if get away with it for work but it's just a little too short as the lining ends shorter than the lacy skirt so a but too much leg on show for my line of work, shame! Hope you wear it well!

misspym · 19/02/2016 14:51

Thanks apple.

I'm only 5'2 so the length is perfect on me. I tried it on again and think the 14 is the right size(don't get to say that too often) I think it might look bulky with more fabric.

It really is a lovely dress and for once my indecision paid off. I got it for a great price as I had a £10 discount and 10% off.

Glad it fitted :) I have been eyeing up their SS16. Some things I would like to order but am hanging out for a code! Had a catalogue and not even a sniff of 10% off :(

Greengardenpixie · 19/02/2016 16:01

I am 5.5 and it is a bit see through. Not sure if it is work appropriate. Mind you, noone cares in my work and it is fairly relaxed. It just feels a little too see through.

AppleSnapple · 20/02/2016 08:42

Me too greengardenpixie... We just have to hold our nerve and wait for the codes!

Misspym glad you are pleased with it- it's so comfortable to wear too. I am going out to dinner later and shall be sporting mine!
