Plain linen/cotton t-shirt dresses.

Where please? I see loads of women in them, just plain long line t-shirts/dresses in various colours, dressed up with lovely accessories but can't find them anywhere.

Any suggestions?

Thanks Smile

I got a nice navy one in Tesco last year which I wore loads...could be worth checking.

I'm also lusting after these dresses from Boden but can't justify the price at the moment.

NickiFury · 18/07/2016 15:25

Was just looking at that exact one Smile

Urgh! Oh no! I love the Boden dress! But £45? waaaahhhh

ThatsMyStapler · 18/07/2016 15:30

i'm a bit comfortable size wise (14/16) would you wear a t-shirt dress at that size?

(love the boden one)

ElaeudanlaTeiteia · 18/07/2016 15:45

I had that Boden one, very nice but looked rubbish on me (size 12 but really curvy / hippy - it just hid my waist Sad)

hugoagogo · 18/07/2016 16:01

Gap have some, I willing but the advertiser's crashing on me. Confused

ChicRock · 18/07/2016 16:54

I have 2 of those Boden dresses, they're lovely, wash really well. I had to size down though.

ChrissyHynde · 18/07/2016 16:56

Boden dresses lovely !

Rainshowers · 18/07/2016 16:58

There's a 20% off code lurking around that I used to buy one of the Boden dresses last week which made it much more reasonable. I've had to exchange it for the next size down as it was on the big size, but I think it'll get lots of wear.

DelphiniumBlue · 18/07/2016 18:36

If you are in London, they've got that dress in grey in the Hangar Green shop, with a massive discount ( I think it was not much over 20 quid.)

Dancergirl · 18/07/2016 23:03

I like the Boden one too.

ilovecherries · 19/07/2016 08:32

I've had the Boden ones for a week - a colour block and a plain one - and they've hardly been off since I got them. Wash and dry really well, no signs of twisting or bobbling.

MrsAlexanderSkarsgard · 19/07/2016 08:35

Boden code, just incase anyone needs it -
A9F5 - 20% off plus free delivery & returns

Think I might get one of those dresses Grin

HoggleHoggle · 19/07/2016 09:01

Oooh Mrs you are tempting me now!

mrssiriusblack · 19/07/2016 09:11

The boden dress is lovely and with the code above it takes it to £35.60 (thanks Mrsalexander) I just don't know if I could pull it off - I had a baby 10 weeks ago and carrying a lot of weight on my tummy - still look pregnant (massively depressing me)

Nearlyadoctor · 19/07/2016 09:23

Have you looked at this one? Two colours both in Boden clearance.

Nearlyadoctor · 19/07/2016 09:32

Probably the one Delphinium saw in the Hanger Green shop!

HoggleHoggle · 19/07/2016 09:47

Boden customer services really are brilliant. I placed a big order with them yesterday, I rang them just now with the code Mrs gave and they've refunded me the difference.

So I might now order the dress I'm lusting after with the refund Shock.

Unfortunately the ones in the sale would be no good for me as I'm a sweaty individual and grey cotton is my arch enemy Blush

blueskyinmarch · 19/07/2016 11:46

I just bought this dress from Joules. It comes in lots of colours. I like it because i am neither very young nor very slim so need I cotton that has a bit of structure to it. It is very lovely and comfortable.

Dancergirl · 19/07/2016 13:09

I've just bought this from Hobbs, quite pricey though:

Boden's blackberry dress is also lovely, I wear mine lots and it always get a nice comment. Dress it up or down. Can't do links sorry!

JamieVardysParty · 19/07/2016 14:16

Gap have some for £25 plus 25% off online currently.

There's a really nice navy thin stripe one.
