Not awful summer dresses

Has someone already posted about this?! Am stuck in a huge shopping centre and tried Zara, M&S, TopShop, H&M, New Look... have I missed the nice summer dresses?!

If you know of ANY that are vaguely not really skimpy, not mega frilly/girly girly... ok sounds hard for a dress but.. sort of knee/above knee...I'm very pale if anyone knows of good shades! Would prefer to be able to wear a bra if possible :)

Help! Going to BBQ at the weekend and can't wear leggings again!

I have this and absolutely love it. I had to go up a size as Cos don't do busts but have had loads of compliments on it. Just bought the navy too - lovely crisp cool cotton.

That's lovely wax Cos sizes always confuse me. I am a 12, what size should I buy??

I'm a 12 too but bought a 40 which is a 14 - I'm large of bust though and although the 38 fit me it was tight across the back. I'm also only 5 ft 3 so is on the knee on me rather than above.

I've got a couple of nice dresses from m&co. My main criteria is length (I'm 5'10"). I have this one .. www.mandco.com/floral-print-fit-and-flare-dress-red/1028766.html?cgid=10010090&dwvar_1028766_color=0120#start=29
I like sainsbos dresses too but they are always short.
