90’s style dress

I wonder if anyone can help ; I’m after a particular style of dress , the best example is on the wee clips of littlewoods in between ads and the girl is wearing a red and white button through midi dress . Now ,I thought I’d find it on the littlewoods website but no luck . Think Julia Roberts and Meg Ryan romcom outfit !

I was sure I replied to this yesterday! I don't know which ads you're talking about so may be completely wrong but asos have lots of 90s style button through midi dresses.

This looks very 90s to me.

I remember those dresses - I think they were called 'tea dresses'.
I still have some I my wardrobe ad feel shocked that the 90s are long ago enough to be a fashion era!

You could look on ebay for vintage M&S or 90’s Next.
They produced those styles by the bucket load.
Or 90’s Principles
90’s BHS.
Are they back with the skinny straps and a tee underneath? Grin

I saw this in Mango earlier - very 90's! Grin

That’s the style but longer length . I’ve waited years for this style to return and here I am so near yet so far 😁

Constantly cooking here’s the thing , I did it first time round too , but I think now it looks really fresh , however I’ve yet to try one on so I’m probably deluded

Which one is the one you like OP? The Laura Ashley one?

Moominfan · 13/04/2018 20:37

the new look one is lovely

Moominfan · 13/04/2018 20:39

eBay so quality always a guess but very similar

Olsfreeandsingle · 13/04/2018 21:29

The Laura Ashley one is the closest but I kinda think it makes the model look frumpy so I’d be screwed 😲

This but longer

This is the closest I can find.

VioletCharlotte · 13/04/2018 22:05

I love this style of dress. I'm searching online for you.. Slightly perturbed that 90's style is being described as vintage!

ANiceSliceOfCake · 13/04/2018 22:23

God is this really vintage! I feel ancient. This has always just been my go to dress! I love them with a biker jacket.

Lucked · 13/04/2018 22:52

This thread is making me want to watch Reality Bites and Singles. In fact doesn’t Sandra Bullock wear a dress like this in Speed.

Lucked · 13/04/2018 22:57

urban outfitters

Olsfreeandsingle · 13/04/2018 23:24

That urban outfitter one’s the biz but fifty five squid ?? What ?? surely the cut is a dead simple golden oldie rehashed . On the other hand if you look good you’d technically pay anything Grin
