The dress is lovely, exactly like the picture! The only downside was that it came up a bit big, so I had to get it taken in by a tailor.

I wore this to my son's outdoor vineyard wedding in late October. I was a bit worried about the chill, but the fabric is substantial enough that I was perfectly fine with just a light wrap in the evening. The elegance of the cut really suits a vineyard vibe—classy but relaxed. The floral detail held its shape brilliantly, even after being packed in a suitcase for travelling. I will say, make sure you check the size guide carefully. I almost ordered my usual size, but after measuring, I went up a size, and I’m so glad I did. It’s quite fitted around the hips. It’s a gorgeous dress that doesn't look like your typical "frumpy mum" outfit, which I really appreciated.

I ordered this for an evening wedding in the city centre. The venue was a posh hotel, so I needed something quite sophisticated. This dress hit the mark perfectly. The colour is rich and deep, absolutely lovely under the venue lights. I loved the floral detail; it meant I didn't have to wear a necklace, just some nice earrings. My only gripe is that the delivery took a little longer than I'd hoped, so I was getting a bit anxious before the big day. Also, the lining feels a bit synthetic, but not enough to make you overheat. Once I had it on with my hair and make-up done, I felt like a million dollars. It photographs really well too, which is a massive bonus for these kinds of events.

I bought this for a cruise formal night. I wanted something that travelled well and wouldn't take up my whole suitcase. This dress folded down pretty small and just needed a quick iron in the cabin. It looked absolutely stunning in the dining room. The stretchy satin is very forgiving after a massive dinner, which is a funny but genuine bonus! The colour didn't wash out or look weird in the flash photography they take on the ship. It’s a simple, elegant design that you can dress up with some smart heels or keep simple. There were a few loose threads on the inside hem, but nobody sees that. For the price, you really can't beat it for a formal do.

I got this for my mum for my brother's wedding because she hates shopping and refuses to go into the shops. We took her measurements and hoped for the best. When it arrived, she was actually smiling when she tried it on! The 'elastic' part of the description is spot on; it stretches nicely when you move, so she could hug people and dance without worrying about splitting a seam. The style is very timeless. It’s not trying too hard to be trendy, which is exactly what she wanted. We did notice a loose thread near the flower embellishment, but I just snipped it off, and it was fine. It’s a lovely dress for the price, and seeing my mum feel confident in it made it worth every penny.
