Tea dress needed

7 replies

Member212711 · 25/06/2023 15:12

Am after summer dresses. Must haves: 3/4 or full length sleeves, tea dress length (I think that's what it's called, well below the knee), size 18, and POCKETS (why do so many dresses not have these?). I've scoured M&S (not v many with the longer sleeve and only 1 I could find with pockets). Extra points for being reasonably smart so I can wear them to work; and I am quite top heavy, so something that helps with that is always good!

Perhaps better to call it a maxi dress?

There's a tea dress filter on Boden! No pocket filter but a few I've clicked on have pockets

@Swearwolf - not heard of Joy before, and a good call. Thank you!

Have a look at Emily & Fin. They have a filter for tea dresses, and a sale at the mo (don't know if these dresses are in, though). I think the site address is emilyandfin.co.uk, rather than the ampersand.
