Anybody seen any nice jumper dresses?

I've been wearing jumper dresses since the 80s, but they seem pretty few and far between these days. Anybody seen any nice ones?

I'm 5' 2 - and want mid thigh. Maybe I should just look for a long jumper?! Grin

Remus I'm 5'3 and I've got this jumper from Celtic & Co and it's mid thigh on me (ends just below the fattest point Grin) Would that work as a dress for you? It's wool so may not be right but I don't find it scratchy at all (admittedly that's over a L/S T shirt). It's my favourite jumper at the moment, beautifully warm - wearing it today! I've got a discount code somewhere although I'm not sure if it's expired.

Thanks, Flo. Probably not quite long enough, and I do find lambswool scratchy. If it was in a 'real' shop it'd be worth a try on, but not close enough to bother with an online order.

Have you tried Bench? They do some good short ones. I'm 5"2 and they are short on me. I wear them with leggings.

Dorothy Perkins have loads in at the moment! Roll necks and other types too and they have 30% off at the minute on some of them

Thank you. The Dotty P's ones are likely to fail on fabric. Will look at Bench (never heard of it).

What about Sugarhill Boutique? They have a lovely grey one with stars on 😊

I think you should search for knitted tunics rather than dresses.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 13/12/2017 18:37

Good idea, Red. Will do!

Will look at SHB too, thanks.

Zara had a lovely knitted burgundy one - my dtr bought one and it looks fabulous on her - like a thick cricket jumper - mid thigh - she's about 5'2" - not sure what it is made of

Phase 8 Becca ones look good

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 13/12/2017 21:49

Will look in Zara. Thanks.

The Phase Eight one would be perfect if it was just jumper shaped, instead of with the waist thing.

I am the same height as you. I've had some nice ones from ASOS and monsoon.

allinclusive · 13/12/2017 22:35

I've got my eye on this.

Allinclusive me too. I have the blue and grey and they're lovely but the red is always out of stock!! Sad

allinclusive · 13/12/2017 22:55

Oh no. I was procrastinating about that and now I want it :(. Good luck on your jumper hunt. I will obvs. be keeping my beady eye on any recommendations.

This is the Zara one
