I absolutely love this dress! It is my go-to for an evening out. It is beautiful and understated, fits well and the fabric is supportive and good quality. I have just bought the jumpsuit too!
Gorgeous
Only worn once but it's the best I've felt about myself in ages. I'm usually a 12 up top and 14 on the bottom and bought size M. My shoulders are fairly narrow but my arms are bigger at the tops than they used to be (I'm in my mid 40's) and I felt it was a touch wide over the shoulders but felt perfect on my arms. Bottom half fitted v nicely. Fabric is thick but v stretchy. Could have worn without a bra but it wasn't the look I was going for so i didn't. It was so comfy. Only thing it missed was a pocket but I can see why it doesn't have one. Will probably buy more in the future if it washes well.
I decided after seeing lots of friends posting about Manners that I'd treat myself. Not something I normally do. I ordered this dress fully expecting to have to return it because I look like a sausage squeezed into its skin. Not today! I felt SO good. Like instantly. I avoid mirrors quite frequently but I took this dress straight to the mirror and preened! Sent pics to friends. The whole shebang. It is stretchy but not in a loose way, it hugs but doesn't constrict. It smooths and accentuates my extra bumps without making me feel exposed like a lot of body con items do. The fabric is thick so no risk of exposing anything. The zip is strong and stays put!
For reference I'm usually anything between 18 and 22 but probably more 18/20 I have giant boobs (like 38 J) and I opted to try a L. It's perfect. I think an XL would have also fitted fine and had a little more wriggle room but I wanted it a little tighter! The boobs have never looked or felt better!!!
Now saving for my next purchase! I'm hooked!
You've only gone and done it again!!!! My god do I feel INCREDIBLE in this dress! The super sexy zip and the leg slits are just gorgeous, I feel SO GOOD when I wear this! Such quality fabric, your clothes really are so special. Thank you for making me feel so good!
