Summer dress - help!

Our small dress shop in town has a fabulous, plain shift dress in the window.
Have you tried smaller, independent shops? Sometimes they have a slightly different choices.

Try Boden - their dresses come in many different cuts and are petite, regular & long.

Another vote for Boden, also The White Company, Hush and Mint Velvet have some beautiful dresses in at the moment.

Cotton Traders might be worth a look too. Also Joules.

Try John Lewis. I have bought a couple from there at a reasonable price.

My DD has bought a couple of very nice summer dresses from the Tu range at Sainsbury’s. She needed to update her wardrobe for work without spending a fortune.

I like Boden too and have recent brought a summer dress from Finery which is lovely. East has revived itself - some lovely dresses but pricy. If you are going mad you could try Cheffin.

A big thank you, I will have another browse. Maybe I will be dressed for summer eventually!

I have seen some summer dresses which have a tie belt at the waist which you can position to suit your body shape. Sorry I can’t remember where but think it was John Lewis.

Take a look at Monsoon they have some lovely dresses this year my DD bought 2 from them last month and is really pleased with them.

The This Morning programme yesterday featured some dresses from Oasis so I looked at their on line shop. There were some lovely dresses.

They all get my vote too.

I have just bought a lovely blue floral dress from peacocks it’s midi. I also bought a white floral dress from New Look midi. Last one black floral dress from Matalan all midi lovely dresses. Same height as you size 14 I have to wear midi because of legs (veins) all the dresses are very pretty.

I also vote for Boden, John Lewis and Monsoon .
I eagerly anticipate their sales .
Recently I was disappointed with M and S .The fit was poor .

Have you looked at SeaSalt? I love their dresses.

Another vote for Monsoon, I have a long torso and find their clothing quite good.

Sahara ? Zara ?

And

Try Adini and Skyla. Love their tops.

SeaSalt have a few attractive midi dresses (expect to pay around £80).
A bit pricey for some people but I would spend that on a dress for an occasion.
The models wearing the dresses are all young, but they will suit us more mature ladies.

Sorry, MaryGrand you already said SeaSalt upthread.

The White Stuff?

Try Seasalt. Some really nice maxi or midi summer dresses with sleeves.
