Fellow apple shaped women, have you found any dresses you love recently?

[Changedandderanged]

Hi all, I need a dress or two to wear on days I have to go in to work. No real dress code (NHS) so looking for comfort and practicality.

I have no waist, it has disappeared and I am struggling to know what might suit me now. Anyone a similar shape found something flattering?

I am an apple and find the Hush Kensington dresses really flattering. I have 3 now, all picked up from eBay or vinted. The soft elastic waist gives a bit of shape. I love them.

Love the Seasalt Smock but I am def too apple and fat for it 😂

This is what I have to wear but as an above the knee dress as I'm 5'

Thanks for the recommendation. I like the look of them but wondered if they’d be too long on me. I’m 5’3”. How tall are you?

@WriterOfWrongs Im 5’3 and the length is perfect midi for me!

Ooh thank you @Pinkshoes71 I will purchase one!

I thought it would be trailing on the floor before I bought my first so was pleasantly surprised.

I have this too and it is tres flattering!

I avoid tunics in jersey as both anything stretchy and more fitted looms shit plus eventually gains holes via the washing machine!

As a newly created apple, (thanks peri) I'm struggling. But have just bought this for work. Really flattering.

Hobbs dress

I am absolutely nuts about this Fatface dress I got before Christmas. Really comfy and flattering Chester cord dress

Can anyone be more specific about the summery linen dresses from seasalt so I can look out for them?

Being an apple with a big bust and short too is a nightmare . I’m not sure some of those choices would work for me.

This thread is proving very expensive for me!

I love this dress too. Re sizing - does it run big? I’m between 2 sizes.

The green Seasalt dress arrived today. It's lovely, I adore the colour. It's roomy and very comfortable. I'm going to wear it to work tomorrow.

Brilliant @AhBiscuits! I hope you enjoy wearing it today. I love the colour too, would have ordered this one but it’s not available in my size.

Is it the Seasalt "Heartfelt" dress ?

@LadyEloise1 Yes, that's the one.

It looks lovely. @AhBiscuits

I too would like more specific info on the Seasalt linen dresses please.
What are they called ?

I’ve just ordered this dress from 100 Stars. It comes in several different prints - all gorgeous. I’ll report back on the fit.

Wrap dresses and empire line, both absolutely horrendous on this particular apple!

Oh my @VenusClapTrap that is a beautiful dress !
100 Stars - Another tempting clothing site for me to peruse.

Do you mind me asking what size you are and what size you ordered? It's gorgeous.

And this one!

I ordered the Hush one which came yesterday. In the berry colour. It’s really nice. I probably should have sized down but I might belt it. It’s on sale so a good bargain!
