Just this really. I have a dress in mind that I would like for this summer for work (fairly casual dress NHS).
Like this one a bit: https://www.frenchconnection.com/product/woman-collections-sale/71kuh/tim-tim-stripe-dress.htm?clr=2E2E46&utmsource=googlebase&utmmmedium=comparsionshopping&utmcampaign=googleproducts

But longer, midi length not above knee and ideally cap sleeves or slightly shorter sleeves than this one. Ideally a heavy jersey fabric or similar, none of that thin jersey that shows every lump and bump. Not fitted and not twirly but fairly structured if you know what I mean?!

Budget is flexible, £50ish would be perfect but higher if need be for the right one

Please come to my aid S&B!

Would be below knees on me as I am short, depends how tall you are.

mountain warehouse might be a bit short

Thanks for posting that @ladybranstonpickle I’ve just ordered one too!

YouCantCallMeBetty · 02/05/2021 22:07

Thank you all, great suggestions. I think the fabric on the sea salt one is closest to what I'm looking for. The others I think might be a bit thin, I'm looking for workwear rather than beachy but some look worth ordering to try. Always hard to tell without having stroked the fabric!

I do like this one! Although I wasn't looking for long sleeves I might just sneak this into my basket anyway...

This says maxi but looks midi to me:

This is too short I think?

Thank you, the Boden Darcey one would be perfect if it was just a bit longer. The fabric of the darcey with the length of the Odile would be perfect.

Not sure the sleeves are right, but I have this one and it’s lovely

A bit off plan I know. I have it in a few colours and it’s very forgiving and comes in a longer length.

I have the Boden Odile in the navy stripe, it’s a good weight jersey fabric.
I also have the Boden Lola which I wear to work in the summer again a good fabric.
