Can anyone find me this imaginary dress?

V neck, linen or linen blend, shift type fit but midi length? No tiers. Sleeveless preferably but don’t mind short sleeves. I’ve looked in all my usual places - Seasalt, White Stuff, Next - but can’t find anything that isn’t fitted but comes below the knee.

I live the colour but the shape is a bit too voluminous. I’ve found the perfect dress in Toast, but can’t afford £195 sadly!

Yes I've seen that one - just wonder if the gathers round the waist would emphasize my belly? Might be worth a try though.

Print or plain, @LaBelleSauvage123 ? This is a budget option, a geometric print and as far as I can see from zooming in, no tiers. They call it a smock but it’s only very loosely gathered, if you look at the video.

@Peaceandquietandacuppa you really don't. Yellow is the wrong colour in summer. Looks great..... to every flying insect within 5 miles.

The seasalt cresting waves dress. I have it in 2 colours. So versatile and always get comments when I wear them.

Don't laugh. Asda. Take the belt off...

Ooh I like the Etsy and the Benetton ones.

Ok so I’ve ordered one of the Etsy dresses in indigo. And I’ve also ordered this ….

I know, I know - it’s got tiers, a fitted waist, it’s not linen. I won’t look much like the model when I put it on. But I love the fabric. And I got £30 off!

Ha - I have a Boden dress that fitted none of my search parameters at the time (it is patterned, I don’t do patterns, and made of viscose, I wanted natural fibres). I think I ordered it by accident thinking it was cotton. I love it! Hope your off-message purchase works out too.
