Picked one of these up today - very light and comfortable. Fits well (not tent-like) and a good length (I’m 5”10)

Also comes in green!

Oh! I’ve got this on order in green. It was exactly what I was looking for so I’m glad to hear it’s nice.

Fits small or large ? I'm between sizes. And does it cover bra straps?

CarolNoE · 12/07/2022 16:43

That looks nice. Is it roomy? I am pear shaped so doubt it will sit right on me. However, I am finding T U is one of the few places selling cotton dresses. Thanks

Oh that's nice! Especially as I'm over the puff sleeves look.

DaphneeBridgerton · 12/07/2022 19:12

@mytrueaccount I’d go up a size only because it does follow the natural curve of your body if that makes sense - it’s not huge over my hips it’s just skimming them - really nice

And yes it would cover bra straps but mines hanging off my arm 😅

It’s roomy without being shapeless

Thanks for the reply. It really suits you in the photo, like you say follows your body but not clingy. It would do nothing for me. I got a lovely black wrinkled cotton jumpsuit with lemons over it and had lots of compliments. A few sale bits to take back today so will have another look. I can't cope with 100% viscose in this heat but the patterns on their cotton stuff means I can get away without ironing. TU is my favourite place at the moment.

Yes I thought a photo would be helpful! Shame it wouldn’t suit you. They did have a few jumpsuits in there too - agree with you on the viscose - that stuff is awful in the heat!

Timely ! Was leaving for Sainsbury's when I read this. Got the one in black.
Lovely soft material though being shorter than the model will have to hem.
The dress itself is roomy.
Good for the upcoming weather !

Thanks OP, it looks lovely on you - I've just ordered it in black and green!
