I can't afford it and never go out anywhere so have nowhere to wear it, but just think its so pretty.

I think its beautiful. I love the print. You would really need to be nice and slim for it tbh.

neveradullmoment99 · 21/04/2017 12:35

..and young :(

I love it but the neckline concerns me! But that's because I'm big boobed and it would look matronly in me! The pattern is beautiful though.

Tbh I am slim (size 8) and small of chest, but definitely not young!

I can't justify it though, just think it's really pretty.

I think it's hideous.

DereksGotATail · 21/04/2017 13:01

Love it.

leccybill · 21/04/2017 13:01

The print is nice but the collar/neckline is awful.

KoalaDownUnder · 21/04/2017 15:09

It's lovely. But pretty much all their dresses are! (Out of my budget, though)

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 21/04/2017 15:15

Its gorgeous.

TSSDNCOP · 21/04/2017 15:17

It's very pretty but that ruffle neck would itch me like a mofo

hippadoppaloppagorillapig · 21/04/2017 20:21

Ahhh it's beautiful.

£179 for polyester? Shame...

That's the annoying thing about TB. The materials they use are a bit rubbish considering the price tag.

I do love this dress though. I've had a shitty week and am trying to suppress the stupid in me that buys stuff I don't need when I'm feeling low to cheer myself up!

Lovely, on the right person. Would look bloody hideous on meEnvy

KarenW · 21/04/2017 22:28

dont like it, polyester is naff!

hecallsmebunny · 21/04/2017 22:49

It's fabulous! Agree about the price tag vs material though

CointreauVersial · 21/04/2017 23:09

Print is lovely, but it would be too short for me. Not crazy about the neckline either.

RaeSkywalker · 21/04/2017 23:11

The neckline makes me feel all funny!

LadyOfTheCanyon · 22/04/2017 07:32

I want the print to be the other way up. Dark at the top going to light at the bottom. And that ruffle is hideous.

EccentricPickle · 22/04/2017 07:35

The print is beautiful but I don't like the dress. The high neck line would look awful on me.

They have some beautiful things on their website though.

Iamastonished · 22/04/2017 07:35

Sorry, I really don't like it at all.

Helloandgoodnight · 22/04/2017 07:37

Not keen. I couldn't wear that in a million years as I have boobs and my pudgy knees. I do have a gorgeous ted baker dress but in a completely different style. Where would you wear it?

namechange20050 · 22/04/2017 07:37

I think it's awful. Looks like it's from primark.

munchkinmaster · 22/04/2017 07:40

I think ted baker is awful quality. I get seduced every now and again and always regret it.

BusterGonad · 22/04/2017 10:01

Munch I disagree, I only have 2 dresses but they are both heavy and the fabric is lovely and the zips are beautiful and a feature in them-self!
