Or has it been replaced by Topshop?

Oh look - they do reader reviews:

"A gorgeous and comfortable dress. I would liken it more to an Impressionist painting than a "rosie-spot" design. Even my husband remarked on my "sense of style". Wow! Good news for all knee-phobes, it safely covers the knees without looking frumpy. Many thanks yet again to the design team at Per Una. "

"Monet" dress

It's the skirts which usually have me hooting. This one is apparently flock.

LadyGlencoraPalliser · 21/09/2009 11:30

I actually tried that coat on in the course of my big coat hunt last week. Looked fine on the hanger, but it made my arse look three yards wide.

GetOrfMoiLand · 21/09/2009 11:31

Dilly - get yourself a nice cord dirndl skirt to go with your coat.

Does your coat have a (free) corsage, though (litmus test)

LadyGlencoraPalliser · 21/09/2009 11:33

Think it comes with free scarf.

GrapefruitMoon · 21/09/2009 11:35

Is that the red cord one? Thought it looked nice on the mannequin - but didn't try it on as I don't need another one and didn't want to be tempted....

DillyTantay · 21/09/2009 11:37

god knows i just schwooshed past it/

Bleh · 21/09/2009 11:54

How could you miss this. It's like a cross between Maggie Thatcher and a Lumberjack.

Bleh · 21/09/2009 11:55

And for this one I kind of misread the name is just "repellant jacket". Too right.

Blackduck · 21/09/2009 11:57

Its like shooting fish in a barrel isn't it really....

Megglevache · 21/09/2009 12:21

My mother also loves Per Una, but what really grates on me is that she ALWAYS pronounces it wrong and calls it "per uno"

VulgarAchesButCanRun5k · 21/09/2009 12:33

I am disappointed that nobody has linked to anything in Per Una's signature colours of burnt orange, brown and grass green all mixed up together.

Triple vom

Somebody must be buying this stuff but i can't think who.

DillyTantay · 21/09/2009 12:34

GetOrfMoiLand · 21/09/2009 12:37

I'm sure somebody will discover another little gem soon

hotsalsaingbunny · 21/09/2009 13:04

I feel sullied just opening these links

Bleh · 21/09/2009 13:07

My boss is friends with someone who works for Per Una and was telling us about how fab it is, as she gets lots of free clothes from him. I just sat like this the whole way through, wondering how she'd never realised that it's all HIDEOUS.

dingdong3 · 21/09/2009 13:12

Please stop girls...I am hurting from laughing....every link just gets better and better!!

GetOrfMoiLand · 21/09/2009 13:23

my best friend had a duvet cover like this in the 80s
