Am so in love with Kirsten Scott Thomas’ wardrobe in Slow Horses! Would love to find this dress! I think it is Ralph Lauren and have been googling like crazy but can’t find-help required!

Right, it’s likely the Jasper Conran Blythe dress from a couple of seasons ago when they did one in a dark teal. Here it is in the navy. The seamstress on set confirms that they have either copied ones where the colour they wanted wasn’t available or where they wanted a change. For this dress they’ve changed the sleeve, shortened it to the perfect length for Kristin.

It’s totally gorgeous in the navy too!

Unfortunately, autocorrect did me with the name. I did type it correctly but hadn’t realised it had been changed. Apologies but I can’t change it 🤷‍♀️

Well, nice to see him diversifying in retirement.😁

This is where we need to recreate ASOS in its original conceptual form.

when it first started it was “As Seen on Screen” so when you saw something on TV or film, that’s where you headed to find it.

i miss it. Was my go to after watching the latest Buffy episode in the 00’s…

I’m 59 and she is an absolute icon . I love her style and also Gillian Anderson. I love both of these ladies styling their hair and clothes. Well the bits I see!

Stablegeniuspig · 06/09/2026 20:26

Her stylist is Marie Deehan. If you trawl through her Instagram, I’m sure you’ll find something. I think there was a good housekeeping or similar article a while ago on her wardrobe.

Elegance personified.

I’ve also heard it called All Sorts Of Shite 😂

It's the Raph Lauren diffusion fit & flare shirt dress. Now out of stock.

Do you mean Jasper Conran? It is very much his style

Yes, Jasper, sorry! His shirt dresses were gorgeous. So disappointed he's closed his women's fashion line.

This looks like an old Joseph Conran one, but a different colour. Some are still available on Vinted. Beautiful fabric and looks wonderful on.

I think it’s Jasper Conran the designer who has done some fabulous shirt dresses, not Joseph Conran.
Joseph Conrad was a novelist who wrote Heart of Darkness, which was a classic though I prefer Mick Herron!

Yes sorry! Jasper, Jasper, Jasper.
I have Jasper Conran dresses and even a dinner service from years ago, you'd think I'd remember his name correctly!

Went to buy this, bought a voucher from Topcashback and then read the reviews.
Rookie mistake - sizing is all over the place.
Cantdeny -I’m gutted. Thought it was lovely.

Oh damn, I hadn't read the reviews either - unusual for me - what a shame, they're very mixed and there's one woman who says it was lovely until she washed it then it turned into a rag!
Shame on John Lewis.
Glad you spotted it and didn't buy it though.

The thing is, she is just so outrageously beautiful that I think it’s her, less so her clothes.

Yes indeed - be warned. Is it the dress or the person that you want to look like?

20 odd years ago, I gave a hairdresser in Europe a photo of Mila Jovovic and said, "I want this please!"
He said, "hmm i can do the hair but not the face, ok for you?" 😂

HumphreyCushionintheHouse · 08/09/2026 21:47

It seems the dress was by Ralph Lauren Polo, but they had it altered, so possibly the actual item looks a bit different than is does in the show.

Obviously would like to BE her, but I do so want the blardy dress!
