Where does decent quality, not too much polyester, dresses these days?

I need something for work in summer, so on the smarter side, which might also double up as something for going out in?

I'm a 5'8" size 16-18, weird shape with skinny limbs a belly and massive boobs and hips! Probably a true apple shape (or possibly hourglass as I do go in and out). 16 in tops, 18 in bottoms.

Has anyone found anything?

Baukjen?

Oh thank you! I hadn't thought of there although I've had some things from them in the past

Monsoon if you like boho & don't mind viscose

i thought there were some decent ones in sea salt last week (although this may just be a sign that I'm getting old)

Polyester is everywhere it feels

Thanks all. I'm not keen on viscose either tbh.

Looking for cotton ideally

Zara has got a lot of cotton and linen shirt dresses etc in at the moment. Can’t vouch for quality as find them hit and miss and I’m wary of their refund issues too! The dresses look lovely though.

M&S?
They have some surprisingly nice stuff. AND their search filters allow you to select by fabric.

I won’t buy polyester or viscose clothes and it’s really hard to find nice clothes made of anything else.
