I’ve fallen in love with this dress but there are no reviews anywhere. Does anyone have it and can you wear a bra with it? It looks like the back is maybe not so low for a back strap, but is it too skimpy round the edges for shoulder straps?

Black Long Sleeve A-Line Penni Midi Dress

So-now so sleek. We love the elegant boat neck that’s balanced by an open scoop back. Plus the close fitting top that falls into a relaxed swishy skirt is a winner for every occasion. We’re wearing ours with Mary Janes. Boat neck Long sleeves Open scoo...

@AutumnLeaves24 , my so called snotty reply was in response to a poster replying to my M &S link (saying it's not on the M& S site,but reviews might be useful), saying she had seen it on the M& S site.
It had nothing to do with Sainsbury's.

I find nobodys child quite small around the bust if that's helps at all!

I was just coming on to write this (and I don't tend to have this problem when wearing my regular size from other shops, so my bust isn't even that big, it's just there iykwim). It's a shame as some of the designs are really nice.

It all got a bit complicated over which dress in which shop. I still think link
please would have been a lot nicer.

anyway, have a nice day.

Okay I am here to report on the dress!

I will be returning it :( it’s lovely but really not for me. The back is actually great and really flattering - not too low so a strapless bra works fine. But it’s very close fitting so unless you’re smallish of boob and you can get a good enough lift with a strapless it just doesn’t work. It’s far too wide for straps. The neckline is gorgeous but doesn’t work without adequate boob lift.

It is a gorgeous dress though for anyone a completely different shape to me!

Wouldn't it be great if there was a site describing the body shape that different brands cut for. I don't think Nobody's Child would have anything to fit me.
Thanks for the feedback.

That's a shame that it wasn't a good fit.

The dress i ordered has arrived and I'm still pondering. It fits but the huge puffy sleeves are a bit extra. I'm not an extra sort of person really. I love it but I'm worried people will think I look silly.
