My navy flying squirrel suit has arrived today. I'm at work so can't try on but looking forward to seeing what it looks like later!

They are the new kaftan Grin

DD (14) says mine (in charcoal) makes her think of a dystopian future where we are given summer and winter uniforms, and this is the summer one. DS (18) shrugged and said 'supermarket'.

@dontticklethetoad Actual photo of me right there.

Riotgrrrrrl · 09/07/2018 17:20

Right, I'm sat here in my navy one and I feel all wafty and chic.
I don't look it though.
I can't work out if I've got really stumpy legs but mine is ankle length and I'm 5'6!
Also, I need to do the gathering the side pointy bits in to make it look better but when I do that it makes it look too tight on my massive arse? Anyone got any ideas how to deal with this issue?

MonkeysMummy17 · 09/07/2018 18:35

Mine arrived around 5 minutes after I left for baby clinic, will have to wait til tomorrow to see how much of a tea cosy I look

SandAndSea · 09/07/2018 19:17

I washed mine last night then wore it damp this morning. It was lovely!

I wore my navy one on Sunday to lunch at the pub with family - wore a navy singlet underneath, and purple sparkly flip flops and lots of chunky silver Jewellery, I got loads of compliments.

i am still pondering, now i have the leopard print on in my basket...is it tshirt stretch or more cotton?

I already added and deleted the spotty one last week, and another patterned one.

I love a bit of leopard print!

WakeUpSlow · 09/07/2018 19:29

I've just ordered one I'm so easily influenced.

Loonoon · 09/07/2018 20:37

I just received the leopard print one. It is more cotton-y than the other two I have which are more of a stretch t shirt material. Still nice though.

I am a very short size 14 and find the small (supposedly size 8/10) is still very roomy.

I think Grace might be the most vacuous person to ever walk this earth?!

Moonkissedlegs · 09/07/2018 21:20

Sorry wrong thread, I'm talking about love island!

Moominfan · 09/07/2018 21:23

Do they have pockets?

dontticklethetoad · 09/07/2018 21:33

riotgrrrrrl I've just sold mine as it finished on the widest part of my calves, making them look about a foot wide.
Where is yours from? I want an ankle length one!

noodlezoodle · 09/07/2018 22:17

I've just bought one from US amazon for the princely sum of $6.13. Mind you it could be another 2 weeks before it gets here - I was NOT prepared to pay the $37 they wanted for expedited shipping.

I'm dying to see how long it is, I'm 5'10 so I'm expecting it to be far too short, but people seem to have really different experiences with the length!

chasegirl · 09/07/2018 23:04

They look lovely and do cool in both senses.

How would they fit on a 5ft 1 inch tall size 8/10? I have to be careful not to look swamped by fabric or look stumpy of leg

itsaldramarama · 10/07/2018 07:30

@noodlezoodle I'm 5.10 and the navy jersey one is mid calf but the less stretchy patterned one is only to my knees

MonkeysMummy17 · 10/07/2018 08:44

My neighbour took mine in so I got them last night, have to say I absolutely love it! Wearing teal today it's so comfy and fairly flattering on my post 2nd baby midriff!

Lacypants · 10/07/2018 08:47

Im about a 20 and only 5ft 1.... Big of, well just about everything 😂
The 20-22 will be fine right? Does either the Amazon or eBay ones have pockets? Are the dark ones at all see through? I work in Ann Summers and want to wear it to work but we get enough weirdos without me showing my knickers

socreamy · 10/07/2018 12:07

@Lacypants That size will be fine, I'm sure. I'm a 12 and the 8/10 eBay one is very roomy on me, in fact I could get about three people in it with me.

It doesn't have pockets, but if you take the squirrel wing bits and tie them together inside the front of the jumpsuit, you can effectively create pockets.

socreamy · 10/07/2018 12:07

Also I have the black on and it's not transparent at all. Very good weight jersey material.

Riotgrrrrrl · 10/07/2018 12:36

@dontticklethetoad I bought the navy version from amazon that was linked in the OP, that's why I'm not sure if I've just got short legs as they come to my ankles but I noticed others say they come to mid calf.
I'm a 10/12 top and a 14/16 bottom so I bought the medium and it is massive, I'm going to order the small and see if it sits better as tying the corners together inside doesn't work for me.
