Anyone shopped at Kew - thinking of ordering this dress...

what do you think?

Anyone know what the quality and sizing is like?

Dress = lovely. Sizing at Kew is kind of average (think Next type sizing), and generally quality is good.

I have found Kew to be good quality.
I've only bought jumpers and cardigens from there, never any dresses, but the sizing seemed pretty average to me, I was able to buy the same size that I usually do and it didnt seem too big or too small.

Sizing is average to perhaps slightly on the large size. I find fabric quality and finishing are about what you'd expect for the price (i.e. not fantastic, but it won't fall apart the first time you wash it or anything like that and you'll get plenty of wear out of it).

Thanks people - it says tunic, but looks like a dress to me and I'm only 5ft 2" so I reckon it should be okay.

I like the dress.

I used to work at Kew (recent past) and found their sizings to be on the large side, particularly the dresses.

I'm a 10-12 and had a size 8 dress that was definitely not too small.

The lengths aren't ridiculous either (I'm about your height).

Quality is good.

Although interestingly, despite being a mid-market shop, they still pay their staff minimum wage. Not that I'm bitter.
