Budget friendly dupe of this dress

Has anyone seen a budget friendly dupe of this Hmete Rouge silk dress? https://www.hmete.com/products/silk-rouge-dress

I saw an Instagram advert of it styled with a black jumper which I loved but I can't afford.

Silk Rouge Dress

Wow factor from 9 to 5 and 5 to 9. Cut in stretch silk it features a wrap-effect top with a pleated waistband, creating a playful flow to the midi skirt. Small hooks that are not externally visible make the V neckline adjustable.

Is there any part of this that you find yourself drawn to?

How about this for starters

Would a skirt not work if you're styling it with a jumper?

The hang of the skirt was a bit part of it, this is a great option thank you.

I quite like the versatility of being able to wear as a dress or a skirt.

To be honest I think that's a nicer dress. It hangs better, especially at the back. There's a sort of skimpiness in the cut of the Hmete dress I don't like.

@felicabaronx89 you need to start your own post. Probably on the tech board would be best

I don't think getting a pregnant Angela Rayner to model for them is going to help sales...

The Ghost one at John Lewis is an absolute steal - they are such great quality dresses too.
