Never bought a dress that has had as many compliaments as this one!

[Fraida]

So I bought a new dress yesterday and have been stopped at work and in shops to ask where I got it, its really flattering and a lovely colour so if anyone is looking for a new dress I'd highly recommend this one 😃Floral Square Neck Midi Smock Dress

It's not my style but I think it looks lovely on you! I think the colours look better in your pic than on the site.

I've got some from Fat Face that have the shearing in panels, one has it at the sides, and a couple in the back panel, but the fronts are then just normal structured and shaped dresses. Win/win ,😁

Thats all I see when I go out… women in big floaty, flowery dresses…

The lead photo isn't great - it's very pretty from the front. Good call, OP!

It must really suit you so to be getting all the compliments and comments- how lovely 😊

@KnittedCardi I have never worn anything with shirring before but I am now a convert... seems to flatter my Ds

@TheOrigRights that is a lovely dress... do the straps cover the bra straps ok?

I don't wear a bra with it, but I am happy to try and report back later.

They absolutely are- every website Ive been on has loads of them- not everyone likes floaty dresses, many of us like figure hugging ones

I love bodycon dresses but sadly would look like an overstuffed sausage in one... I envy those who can wear these!

Aw- you look lovely in that dress! Yes, I am glad there are a variety of styles now for hourglass, tall, plus size, petite, etc its about time they catered for different body shapes

I have ordered the raspberry one on M and S to see if it suits me ( probably not).

Honest to god I'm 4"11 and M&S have been amazing this year with proper petite midi dresses that actually look great on.

OP nothing better than finding something that looks good on you and makes you feel great. Some of the comments on here are weird. No item of clothing will be to everyone's taste or indeed will suit everyone but no need to be rude about it.

The manufacture of viscose is so unbelievably toxic that it isn’t produced in UK or USA because it would be impossible to comply with safety requirements. So it’s a no from me.

Not surprised at the response you have had OP.

Reminds me of something from Pink Lemons. I do really like it! Great colours

Just tried with a bra and yes, they do show a bit. Strapless bra would be better or transparent straps

Men would have a field day staring and shouting at my boobs in a dress like that. Shirring on the boobs emphasizes them and I already get lots of harassment and lewd comments for being genetically 'blessed'.

Trouble with a very recognisable print in M & S, you start to see it everywhere. The colours are nice, the dress shape a bit overdone now.

I'm a 36HH if that helps!

It looks nice but I don't like to wear shirring (hot and uncomfortable) and don't like tiers on dresses (shortie). This season's trend is not for me.

It must look great on you.

Is that better or worse then Sainsbury's TU asking for a friend?

@ChiefWiggumsBoy do you know what material the green dress is please? I cant see it anywhere on the web site. And whats it like in the heat?

I love this dress and every time i go into M&S i have to go and have a look at it but at 5ft not a lot it would trail on the floor if i wore it. Bet you feel a million dollars in it, enjoy all the compliments.

Maybe post us a (headless if you want) pic OP. I don't think it's flattering on the model.
