Summer dress of dreams

18 replies

Bought this dress from Hush of the back of another thread and it is, in fact, the summer dress of dreams!

www.hush-uk.com/bay-jersey-dress-abstract-animal-khaki/005421-3810.html

It has nice cool material, drapes nicely, V neck (huge boobs so crew necks make me look matronly) super flattering length and has pockets! If they made it in different colours I'd buy them all! Instead of panic buying loads of things in an attempt to look half decent this summer, I'd like to buy some more variations of this. Does anyone have any ideas or seen anything similar?

Thanks all x

@LucyRipley that looks lovely!!

Thanks @Fedupsotired - I bought it when there was a 10% off on all dresses and it just feels so nice on. Really light and airy which is why I want to find a couple of alternatives so I can have a kind of capsule wardrobe for the summer :-)

I've just bought it! I've some cheap dresses so will be nice to have something a bit better quality

WakeUpandSmelltheKetchup · 21/06/2022 21:33

I would look like an actual spud in that.

It is indeed the summer dress of dreams! Gorgeous. If only we weren't trying to save money 🙁

ZenNudist · 21/06/2022 21:44

I bought it and returned it. It looks nice in the picture but its just shapeless. I thought the material was bad quality. Sorry but i didn't think up to hush standard. Wasn't worth the money.

We are probably different shapes. I'm 5'3 and size 12. I agree with the other poster saying about looking like a potato. Might be better on someone taller.

I wish they would put a pic of of a model on every size dress I think I'd look like a spud in it too

Fedupsotired · 24/06/2022 18:11

@LucyRipley I have bought it and don't think I look like a spud!!!!

@limitededitionbarbie I'm 5'7 so that may make a difference

Saw this and looks pretty similar style www.pocketsforwomen.co.uk/product/15837/white-stuff-nuelle-jersey-dress

SunnyShiner · 24/06/2022 19:14

I sent it back. The material felt odd and it was very unflattering.

DublinDoris2000 · 24/06/2022 19:21

I've just got myself this from H&M. I'm tall with big chest and shoulders. Flattering with a few buttons undone. Very fine 100% cotton so needs a slip underneath. The sleeves and gathers at the shoulders are very pretty.

I wore it last night and got lots of compliments!

magaluf1999 · 25/06/2022 08:05

I have it and I have worn it to death. Id also love in other colours.

I look much better in a v neck and in falls in all the right places.

I am tall.

floweringpoppies · 26/06/2022 13:57

Wore it again today and got more compliments! Now want to find another similar dress as the style obviously suits me!

nbee84 · 30/06/2022 21:12

I bought it from the back of another thread too. I'm 5ft4in, size 12 and really like it. Have had a couple of compliments too. V necks definitely look better on me and I do try and look for that style.

I have discovered shoulder gathers are very flattering for a larger chest. I now look out for shirts, blouses, tops that have shoulder gathers.
