Dresses like the viral Zara 2019 spotty midi dress?

[MadameSapphire]

I could do with a couple of dresses in this style! Has anyone seen any, please? (I’m UK based.) TIA.

I Have this and it’s very comfortable.

I’ve got two of the Zara ones. I must dig them out and see if they still fit.

I really want to see what the viral 2019 dress looks like now!! Yih could then image search and look on Vinted/Ebay/Vestiare and maybe find the real thing!

Here you go. There’s an XS one on eBay.

That dress did NOT suit me, it made me look like Miss Havisham.

Oh it is fab! Def worth a search

God I had to bin that dress after someone screamed at me in the street that a looked fat and like my skinny friend was only with me to make herself look thinner 🤣 I was a 12.

I've still got mine - I think they're a Large but I'd have to check. I've got the black and white one, and also a red and black (I got a mark on my original one and dyed it - came out fab except for the stitching which stayed white but which actually doesn't detract). I'd be happy to sell on if anyone is interested!

What the hell! What an arsehole to shout that at you.

Shocking, isn’t it? I’m going to wear mine again this summer. I have the original and black with white spots.

Why did it go viral it’s awful.

Thank you. Can you post something you like so I can critique it, please?

i don’t remember this one

I had this dress! Or rather This Dress. I wore it with gold Nikes and a black leather jacket mainly. That article has made me feel so nostalgic!

I still have this dress! It's too big now as I was post partum when I bought it but I'm weirdly nostalgic about it and have hung on to it. Had one similar from Asda that was black with white around the same time, perhaps have some luck on Vinted.

Is it just me or doesn't that pattern make your eyes go funny?

I still have this in Blue animal print and B&W. Haven't worn it in years but gosh, I loved these dresses. Wearing them made me feel like the bees knees. I wore them to work (in an actual office) and even to a job interview.

I never saw it in blue animal print, I’d have bought it immediately if I had.

This is it. It's actually a brighter blue than the photo suggests. Worn with a hot pink cardi, and blue & pink hair 💙🩷💙

I remember this dress looking a lot better in real life than it does on the Guardian article.

I didn't have the dress but really enjoyed wearing some others in a similar style which appeared on the back of the trend. I chose some mid axis with a v- neck which worked a bit better for my shape.
Interested in any current equivalents.

I remember it too! A colleague had one.

God I’m so glad that I didn’t get this at the time even though it was everywhere. It’s so unflattering isn’t it? It’s basically a sort of sack with a frill at the bottom made from cheap viscose.

OP I’m sure you can find better long sleeve dresses with a more flattering cut

Oh god I loved this dress! I need to check if I still have mine somewhere
