Go down a size for a perfect fit

Yes, I recommend this

This is a very simple cut shirt dress. I tried it with a belt and it looks great. I got size 16, after reading the reviews. I am normally an 18. It comes up big, even with my 38E bust, perfect for. Still relaxed, not tight. Washed up well. Because it's black then dye can make it a bit rigid, hence wash before you wear. Great summer addition. More colours??

Lovely dress but but a smaller size!

Yes, I recommend this

A really lovely dress but like many others, I had to reorder twice to find the perfect fit. I am usually a 12 but the size 8 fits perfectly. It’s a lovely dress and will be great in the summer with sandals.

Elegant transition

Yes, I recommend this

This is an elegant transition for women. It’s a classic dress in mixed linen. I’m 5.7 which is a more graceful and classic dress. I normally wear a 12 although I read the reviews and bought a size 8 which is a good fit. I would like you to return the sleeveless linen dresses in regular lengths that I purchase every year and are a firm favourite to go from sunrise to sunset.

Laughably big

No, I don't recommend this

Thick tough fabric, almost an upholstery fabric, but the main problem is the sizing - 6 inches spare fabric on each side of me - this could be pitched as a tent.

Looks good, check sizing for you

Yes, I recommend this

Comes up quite big, I am normally size 12, had read other reviews so ordered a 10 and 12 to try on, ended up returning both and bought an 8 (obviously some people might prefer the larger fit) . Nice length and good fabric.

Black linen mix dress

No, I don't recommend this

I had high hopes of this dress but it is absolutely huge: wide and long. I sized down to a 10 but it was still enormous. Had to send back unfortunately.

Quality but too much quantity

No, I don't recommend this

Great linen fabric but sizing is very generous . I should have ordered a size smaller than usual which is quite unusual for M& S as normally very happy with size 14. Also believe it would be better with belt. Great price point.
