What do you think of this JL Kin dress? Tried it on today but couldn't work out if it was nice or crazy. Bought it but may return it!

I like it. If the shape works for you i am very jealous keep it

emma6776 · 26/06/2019 22:42

I think it’s hideous. Sorry!

bunnieboo91 · 26/06/2019 22:44

Very trendy and I would love that dress!

TrySinging · 26/06/2019 22:44

Yikes. Awful.

AudacityOfHope · 26/06/2019 22:44

Very shapeless and unappealing colours.

thenightsky · 26/06/2019 22:45

I like it.

Marmighty · 26/06/2019 22:45

Out of interest, how old are you? I think it would look interesting and stylish on someone over 70

KezzabellaB · 26/06/2019 22:46

Sorry I think it's bloody horrible!

whitehalleve · 26/06/2019 22:46

I really hate the pattern and the colours.

Ginlinessisnexttogodliness · 26/06/2019 22:47

Since you have asked.......
My opinion FWIW is that it is absolutely bloody awful

Looks like you had a wardrobe mis-hap and were forced to fashion the picnic blanket into an emergency dress.

AllTheUserNamesAreTaken · 26/06/2019 22:49

The colours and pattern are horrendous

MyInnerAlto · 26/06/2019 22:49

Sorry. I'm in the 'yeuch' camp.

Orchidflower1 · 26/06/2019 22:49

I’m sorry I don’t like it. If you’re tall, skinny and under 25 you could probably get away with it

However - you are the one wearing it so if you like it that’s all that matters.

EmmaC78 · 26/06/2019 22:50

Awful. The shape i could live with but the pattern is hideous.

AnneKipanki · 26/06/2019 22:51

Hideous

MmeBufo · 26/06/2019 22:51

I like the cut and Viscose is lovely to wear, the pattern is dreadful though. Sorry.

This is version of it is much, much better, I think. www.johnlewis.com/kin-yashiro-floral-oversized-shirt-dress-white/p4067417

Iamtooknackeredtorun · 26/06/2019 22:52

Another no from me. That said the i never like those sort of colours. If it works for you then what do I know? If looks comfy.

daffodilbrain · 26/06/2019 22:53

I don't like this at all-I don't like colours, shape, collar nope not for me but you may like it

Iamthewombat · 26/06/2019 22:53

NONONONONO

That would look terrible on anybody. Are you going for the ‘not really trying hard’ look? Try harder!

Redcrayons · 26/06/2019 22:54

Not for me. I don’t like the colours and the shape would make me look pregnant.
But, i don’t thinks it’s not crazy/out there so if you like it, keep it

PinkiOcelot · 26/06/2019 22:54

Not keen, sorry.

DontCallMeShitley · 26/06/2019 22:55

It obviously depends on how you look, I can see it looking really good on a confident person. I wish I could wear things like that but I never could.

I like it because it is different and I would say give it a try, see what you have that would make it really special.

HundredMilesAnHour · 26/06/2019 22:55

I like the shape - it's a pretty standard shape for Kin - but the print isn't appealing and the colours are really sludgy. There's a reason why it's in the sale.
