Hmm, don't want to put you off, but have bought from them and from Spirito di Artigaiano, the 'plus size' arm of same company.
Have to say, I find Spirito's things generally very frumpy and 'old' - and I'm close in age to maryqueenofchoc's Mum ... I think their design, never very on trend, has taken a nose-dive since they were taken over a few years ago. They seem to assume large women want to wear tents.
Artigiano is a bit better - though a lot of their stuff tends to the 'conservative', there are some pieces which are OK as basics/ classics to mix and match with more fashion-informed stuff as/if you like.
On quality, I've honestly found them variable. Some things have been OK - eg I've had one jersey wrap dress that has worn well and garnered compliments - in other cases, I've had problems (eg, bad 'pilling' of knitwear) you shouldn't really expect at their prices. The feedback on their reviews suggests I'm not alone on this. Sizing I've found can also be variable, though usually quite generous.
If you fancy something in the sale, may be worth at least trying. As someone who's sent many things back, have found their returns service efficient!
