Decisions

It’s really pointless asking on here because we are all different shapes sizes and opinions It’s like on fb someone says can you recommend a hairdresser/ takeaway/ pub/ school and every one with 20 miles is mentioned because everyone has their own favourite and their own opinion so totally pointless to the ‘asker’

I’m with Norah, much prefer something more fitted or tailored. Probably all those years of wearing suits - I’ve become sartorially institutionalised - but shapeless does nothing for me.
Were you having a bad day Fanny? 😁

Now I know! I went to Boundary Mill and wondered why the Cath Kidston counter wasn’t there such a shame.

B but the belt just around the back as I don’t like belts around my waist (which has disappeared).

Yes, Joseann, I’ve noticed that Cath Kidston have gone into administration.
A shame. Some poor decisions must have been made somewhere along the line

I wish there were an Eastenders dress FannyCornforth with all the gritty places! I'd buy that!

(My DG had a lovely Cath Kidston frock with posh places on it. It's a shame their last proper shop opposite Burlington Arcade is closing).

All depends on your figure and if you have anything to hide ( fat tum, fat bum, you can guess what else !).I wouldn’t personally choose any of them, a bit ‘frumpy’

I bought this yesterday!
A Coronation Street dress!

I would have said A.
But I’d expect something really special for that money!

I like B the best

I think B is best - but don't fasten the neck!

A, although it’s not very exciting and seems rather expensive.

I have one exactly the same as the yellow one, except in blue. It cost £15 in Tesco's sale. 😂

I have had so many compliments despite being vertically challenged and dumpy!

Interestingly I've just been reading Woman and Home August 2023.

Definitely A more on trend and agree tan leather belt would be lovely

Sorry,I don't like any of them, material patterns too fussy.
Very difficult to find a plain coloured dress without frills, drawstrings and voluminous sleeves at the moment.

Joseann

Thanks so much. I'm going to order A now, and will see how it sits on the waist, with maybe a change of belt.
A was sort of my 1st choice, (oh, and it's French!)

Surprised it’s French! C looks more French to me. I can’t imagine wearing any of them, but then that’s not my style of dressing.

Wothout knowing your height and shape it is really difficult to tell. I do not really like any of them but think C is dreadful, it is 'age appropriate' dressing at its worst.

Against the trend - I like A, but I would change the belt to a tan leather one, or a canvas and leather one.
Only you can decide on how it looks on your body fit.
I’m off to JL tomorrow, I might hunt it out.

Don’t like any of them to be honest. BUT as a last resort B.

C A B in order of preference for me. Enjoy (whichever you choose).

I'm between A and B. Just buy both!

I liked A the best. From the photo I can't really see if it buttons all the way down, or just to the waist, but I like the sleeve length and pattern.
Show us a photo once you receive it!

I think that A could look quite frumpy, the others are OK but just not my taste.

Go for A, by far the best👍🏻
