Hi, please can anyone recommend or find a similar dress to the two linked? I have an event coming up and would like to wear something like this but can only afford £80/£90ish on a new dress. I have had a look and can't find anything with simlar cut / length.

Have you looked in their sale section? Hobbs is great for that cut/length/hang of fabric - I’ve got this in green from a few seasons ago.

it’ll probably eventually get to about £90-£100 in their sale but obviously that won’t work for your event…

Just put cobalt midi dress and quite a few are shown on google at different prices. I hope you find something you like.

I've bought lots of almost new dresses from Hobbs on ebay. Maybe you would get lucky and find one second hand?

I think Sosandar has this kind of cut but I would agree look for Hobbs and LK Bennett + the colours you like on Vinted/ebay

miamimmmy · 24/03/2025 14:25

Agree check Vinted too, for Hobbs that kind of non jersey item wears well, I’ve got some that are virtually vintage and washed well. Also you can isolate get a 10 pc off sale if you sign up to emails and go via a top cash back site too.

Thank you for all the ideas, I will have a look on vinted and ebay. I have had a few bad experiences with vinted recently but really do want this dress.

I will try signing up for 10% off too.

I have tried their sale section but nothing in this cut / style at the minute.

Thank you everyone!

Otherwise it’s worth stalking Hobbs for the next occasion far ahead - I’ve eyeballed a dress that was £149 for 9 months and got it for £89 in sale last week finally!

Erin2025 · 24/03/2025 18:56

I may have to start stalking Hobbs - I really like those dresses!

Love some of these options, especially the Jolie Moi.

Thanks!
