Nice dress with pockets for Wimbledon

[AgnethaF]

Want a nice cool dress I can wear with trainers to Wimbledon. Below knee for comfort, don't want it riding up when sitting down. Maybe a nice sage green, but I can wear most colours (dark hair/hazel eyes). Not linen - don't want to look crushed or crumpled. Looking for effortlessly cool.... :)

Budget £100. Size 16. 5ft 4, so not ankle length as look like something out of Michael Bentine's Potty Time (1970s show for the oldies among us).

I have this dress in yellow and wore it to London on Saturday -stayed looking great and I didn’t end up looking (or feeling) like a hot sticky mess.

Plus ethical company.

I know you said no linen but this dress doesn’t seem to crease like linen does. Lovely colour. Very comfortable.

Why is she standing on a chair?

Good quality linen doesn’t crumple.

White stuff have loads of jersey dresses with pockets, I love them!

Just here to check no one is suggesting Popsy 😂

Links don’t work, here’s a pic instead.

Need a dress for standing precariously on chairs…?

Love this, what’s the sizing like @Tulipvase ?

Fat face generally runs pretty big. I buy a 14 and might get a 16 else where. I’m 5 ft 2 on a good day and it’s a nice length on me, prob a midaxi but they say it’s a midi.

This one's a cotton blend so will be much less wrinkled.

I love this!! Going to the ladies finals and seriously considering buying it. Too much though?! 😬

I tried on loads of Nobody's child dresses and they were all far too buxom wench.

I was there yesterday and saw lots of lovely dresses, I think this would be perfect!

A wee update. I ordered a lot of these dresses, ranging in price up to £180. and the final choice was this one!…

It was cool and crisp. Perfect for Friday as it was a scorcher.

Very nice! And looks more £ than it is.

Yes, my original budget was £100, but ordered a few dresses that were much more (and much less). I just wanted the “right” dress. I think it was flattering for my shape and size.

Happy with my choice. Some lovely outfits to be seen on Friday.

That’s a lovely dress @AgnethaF and a great price.
I hope you had a great day at Wimbledon

Lovely choice, perfect for the occasion and the weather and I bet you'll get lots of use out of it, too.
