So a few years ago I posted here looking for the holy grail of jersey dresses, and the verdict was unanimous... the h&m basics thick jersey bodycon style dress was queen. Indeed it was. Excellent quality, bargainous price, flattering cut, versatile, washed perfectly, scoop neck , perfect length.. etc. Lovely muted jewel inky blues and charcoal tones.
Miraculous . So I bought a heap... I wore them until they fell apart from overuse. Bought more.
My winter wardrobe was sorted. For a few years running all good. But this year I can find nothing of the sort. There are a -line ones, really tight super short ones, maternity ones (I’ve considered this!).
I bought a few whistles ones from ASOS that I thought would suffice. The fabric is thin and smooths no sins :( and they have weird gathered seams that make me look very pregnant (I’m not).
And they’re £60 quid a pop . This defeats the object because I like to have a stack of ten or so to just throw on fresh when I’m travelling etc. Suggestions please !!

This is close, but has a turtleneck. Scoop would be preferable. My Audrey Hepburn days are over, sadly.

Something like this or is it too short and/or straight?

I like that one . Though I think it may not like me. Perhaps a little too structured.
