It looks quite sweet.

smallandimperfectlyformed · 31/05/2016 18:39

I am not fashionable at all so feel free to ignore me but I think that dress is very pretty!

Purplerunner · 31/05/2016 18:40

Lovely Smile

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 31/05/2016 18:40

I saw it today. The print is v pretty but the fabric isn't nice. Tbh even the cotton stuff in that range isn't as nice irl as on the website.

INeedNewShoes · 31/05/2016 18:41

I like it!

SummerHouse · 31/05/2016 18:41

Beautiful, distinctive and different.

freshprincess · 31/05/2016 18:42

I like it.

I do find some of their dresses a bit too short though, I am quite tall though.

LadyAntonella · 31/05/2016 18:43

It would suit me at all, but imagine it could be lovely on the right person. I'm not all that sold on Oasis, just in terms of the quality tbh, so would probably go and try this on before I bought if possible.

DavetheCat2001 · 31/05/2016 18:45

hmmm thanks for your opinions.

I've ordered it and can always return it if it looks horrid.

I'm 5ft 7, so hoping it won't be too short. Normally the models on these web sites are tallish aren't they?

Remus did you actually see it in the flesh?

That was featured on This Morning last week. I think it has a lowish back. I couldn't wear it as the neck is too high for me but it looked lovely on the model.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 31/05/2016 18:48

In the flesh, yes. I thought the fabric was not v nice, sadly. The prints are v lovely.

charliethebear · 31/05/2016 18:50

I think its lovely!

Nettletheelf · 31/05/2016 18:51

If only they'd make this stuff in better fabric, I'd buy loads of this stuff from Oasis. I can't believe that they couldn't knock this dress out in cotton when they are charging £70.

LadyAntonella · 31/05/2016 18:51

Should have said wouldn't suit me at all, not "would suit me at all". Yes just keep the labels on it op and then can return if you don't like it in person.

DavetheCat2001 · 31/05/2016 19:24

It say's the model is 5ft 9, so it won't be as short on me Smile

Love it, but yeah it would depend on the material/length. Do report back!

SellFridges · 31/05/2016 19:30

I love Oasis but they do tend to come up short and I'm only 5' 6". They do a longer/tall length in some things now.

Their trousers are usually a bit long on me oddly.

DavetheCat2001 · 31/05/2016 20:19

I certainly will report back Smile

DavetheCat2001 · 06/06/2016 17:40

Well here it is. Actually I think the material is very nice, much better than I was expecting. I think it would work well for my summer party or a wedding.

What think you of this dress..

Oooooh it looks really great on you op! You look stunning!

freshprincess · 06/06/2016 18:33

Nice. And love your shoes.

DavetheCat2001 · 06/06/2016 18:39

aww thanks guys. I'm trying to justify keeping it as I don't really need it..it is one of those dresses though that you could pull out for a summer wedding.
