I usually hate getting dressed up, but this outfit made it a breeze. It’s really forgiving around the tummy thanks to the A-line shape, so I could actually enjoy the buffet without worrying. The colour looked exactly like the photos, which was a massive relief. Definitely keeping this in my wardrobe for future fancy dos.

Got this for a formal night on a cruise and it packed surprisingly well. Didn't take up much room in my case. It’s elegant but not rigid, so I was perfectly comfortable sitting through a long dinner. The dipped hem is great fun as you can show off a lovely pair of shoes. Brilliant choice if you're after something versatile.

I was a bit nervous about ordering a dress online for such a big do, but this one pleasantly surprised me. The asymmetrical cut is really flattering and gives it a modern feel without trying too hard. It's a bit tight across the chest, so maybe go up a size if you're busty, but otherwise, a brilliant buy.

Honestly, for the price, the quality is pretty decent. I wore it to my niece's engagement party and felt really smart. The flowy sleeves are definitely my favourite part, they add a bit of drama. The zip was a tiny bit stiff at first, but after using it a few times, it works perfectly now.

My mum needed something for a garden party and she looked lovely in this. She’s a bit self-conscious about her upper arms, so the cape style made her feel really confident. We did have to get the straps altered slightly, but that’s par for the course for us. It moves beautifully in the breeze.
