Sezane - Worth it? How to style this dress?

66 replies

Shambles123 · 20/05/2026 08:37

Hi!

Is sezane worth the money?!

I am size 10 - inverted triangle shape with boobs if that makes any difference.

For garden party type event how would people style this dress?!

Ok so given broad shoulder… not the halter neck

Shambles123 · 22/05/2026 15:44

I love a halter neck on me bizarrely! I also love a roll neck jumper despite the big boobs. I hate v necks.

I think the Trinny and Susannah body rules just aren't true for everybody!

Go for it then 🤷‍♀️

I don't think it did say that! 😁

I'm glad you have though - I hope you like it when it arrives. I've never ordered from Sézane - everything shared on here looks lovely but the price puts me off a bit, especially with no shop nearby to try things on.

Shambles123 · Yesterday 08:06

I meant the NC dresses I linked to! Ive ordered them, the Sezane one being styled with barefoot and twisty positions is making me suspicious.

Sorry ignore me! I was only looking at your OP and the last page of responses so forgot about the NC dresses.

Whereabouts in uk is the event? When? Just think if it’s chilly…. Given the bow at the back. A shawl maybe?

Is sezane worth the money?! No.

Nasty and unnecessary. And quite frankly dripping with envy.

Oh come on
I love sezanne
but literally all that poster was doing was answering the question from her own perspective

I don’t think lots of things are “worth it” that others do and they’ll think the same about me

Why would it be dripping with envy?

I don't think Sezanne is worth it. I think Sezanne has a fantastic marketing department, aided by fashion journalists taking their shilling, who has managed to persuade UK women that they're selling something better /more stylish than Boden, Anthropology or Nobody's Child. I much prefer the OP's Nobody's Child choices.

Ive decided that it is no coincidence they've gone barefoot in their picture. Looks like a difficult shoe match

Its just a normal dress, most sandals would go with it. For a casual look I would wear tan strappy flat sandals & you could dress it up with a block heel.

ladyrinths · Yesterday 21:28

I like the brown NC dress, the Sezane one is pretty but I don’t love it for the money

Whattinger · Yesterday 21:45

I love Sezane & over the years i have bought lots of stuff including jeans, blouses, tops, knitwear, trousers but never a dress. Not yet anyway.

I love dresses & buy from me+em & ba&sh.

I don't personally like ths shape or colour of that dress & it wouldn't suit my figure or colouring.

It's a pretty versatile dress & i'd have a look at Sezane's sandals for inspo on what would look good

I find the quality far better than &otherstories, nobody's child, m&s etc

And it's streets ahead of h&m

But it's a french brand & this is MN so resonses are routinely & predictably disparaging 🙅‍♀️

French style gets lauded to skies on here.

I like Sézane and have quite a few pieces, but I’m not keen on that dress. I think it’s the colour. It would look awful on me, and I can’t imagine that it would suit many people. Shape also not great unless you have a straight up and down figure.

Quite like the Nobody’s child dress in brown. The floral one looks like something from the 80s.
