Jumper dresses

Spin-off from a previous thread. Has anybody seen any nice jumper dresses anywhere? Knee length or shorter.

Ooh, hopping on the thread to see the suggestions, I love a nice jumper dress. Need to be quite short for me as I'm a short arse.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 04/12/2020 16:31

This one is pretty much exactly what I want, but out of stock in my size.

Try M&Co I got a similar one but not as high a neck last month.

Celtic and Co have a collection here. Received a discount code just this week Festive20 will give you £20 off apparently. Haven't tried it though.

Yy Celtic and Co. I liked their round neck midi dress but it wasn't long enough for me. Size down unless you want a roomy fit.

TooMinty · 04/12/2020 16:56

This Mint Velvet one looks nice but definitely too long for me, how tall are you Remus? Description says model is 5'8"

Zara have got some really nice ones!

TooMinty · 04/12/2020 16:58

This one is shorter but think it's a bit sparkly and off the shoulder so not the neckline for you?

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 04/12/2020 17:24

I'm a short-arse, so the first MV one is far too long, and the second one is too party-ish.

Can't be doing with Zara, sorry.

Will look at Celtic&Co.

I bought one not long ago from Whistles.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 04/12/2020 17:52

That's really nice, Gingerbread, but I think it would be too long.

@RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie I looked at the FatFace one today in store and it wasn’t actually that nice in person, if that’s any consolation? It felt really crackly and synthetic. I have several of the Celtic & co ones and they are really nice quality. Knee length on me at 5,4.

I’m on the search for a new jumper dress too. I normally buy 2 or 3 a year from White Company but I don’t fancy the ones they have this year.

AuntieMarys · 04/12/2020 17:56

Esprit do nice ones

Icenii · 04/12/2020 17:59

I've ordered a long mint Velvet jumper that I can wear as a dress but have a feeling it may be too roomy.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 04/12/2020 18:09

Club - that's made me feel better, thanks. Fat Face stuff is so hit and miss.

I'm only 5'2", so I think most of the Celtic C ones would be too long. They're more than I want to pay too.

I have one from Esprit that's lovely.

I've been looking at a jumper for a while so I took this as a sign and can confirm the code works - thank you

This from Cos? A bit pricier, but the Cos quality is generally good.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 04/12/2020 18:27

I had a nice one from Cos before, but it shrank horribly. :(

Can't see anything on Espirit.

I've just bought several jumper dresses Remus and they well all from Curvissa. (I'm an 18) Saw some lovely ones yesterday on Freemans site but literally can't get any more clothes right now!

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 04/12/2020 18:48

Thanks, Eine. I'm a 14. Will have a look at the 2 places you mention.

Hi Remus - I was considering this one - www.superdry.com/us/womens/dresses/details/177986/wool-cashmere-v-neck-dress--black

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 04/12/2020 19:22

Thanks, DCI. Far too long though - I want mini-ish.

I have been looking for the perfect knitted dress for years- they don’t exist!

In my case, angora/cashmere, below knee, roll neck, black, not ribbed and no split. You helped me search many times for one on here under my previous name, Remus Wink

Can only find this JCrew one which might fit the bill?
