Has anyone got it?

If not what do we think of it?

(Considering for Christmas wear if reduced in the sale.)

Purplepeony - I ordered both an 8 and 10 too. Was worried the 8 would be too small but is a far more flattering than the slightly looser 10. The fit of the 10 seemed a bit "mumsy" on me.

Tulpe- I need to have a proper try on- was interrupted when trying on!

I have the summer version of the colour block shift dress in an 8- it is very tight but flattering IYSWIM! It's a case of breathing in and zipping up!

However, the 8s in this dress are now out of stock

will report back soon...

thanks for asking

TulpeI am undecided still but am considering..

buying the moss one in an 8 in the sale.

The purple one doesn't look right on me for some reason- too matronly and a bit frumpy.

The moss is quite pretty and I have the cash cropped cardi in purple already which matches.

I might re-order an 8 in the sale if there are any and wear it as a summer dress.

I think it's the bust area that feels odd- there is a lot of material above the bust between neckline and boob area IYSWIM, due to the pleats, even though the bust fits fine.

Did you find the 8 much smaller or just a tad?
