Marks and Spencer shoppers are raving about a ‘flattering’ midi shirt dress that they’ve received ‘lots of compliments’ on. The Pure Cotton Checked Midi Shirt Dress is made from a pale green traditional checked pattern, with it giving one customer a ‘vintage feel’ reminsicent of their school days.
The dress is available in sizes eight to 24 and comes in three lengths – petite, regular and tall. It has a midi-length hem for an elegant finish and has short breezy sleeves, making it ideal for wearing the warmer months.
Marks and Spencer’s midi shirt dress costs £35 and has a collared neckline with a button-through bodice giving the garment a neat look. It has a dainty waist tie allowing you to cinch in your waist if desired, giving the dress a stunning shape.
The retailer describes the garment as a ‘timeless piece’ and it’s part of the M&S Collection comprising easy-to-wear wardrobe staples that combine classic and contemporary styles. The dress can be worn casually with a pair of sandals, or can be dressed up with heels or wedges for an evening occasion.
Many shoppers have already snapped up the Pure Cotton Checked Midi Shirt Dress, with one person rating it five stars and commenting: “Love this dress. Flattering and excellent quality. I’ve had several people comment on it – one thought it was a dress from Boden.”
A second happy shopper wrote: “Great dress with a vintage feel. I like this dress a lot. The short length is perfect for 5’2″, but I had to size up as the neck to waist is quite short. Feels like a school dress I used to wear back in the day – but in a good way. Love that it’s pure cotton.”
A third added: “Lovely lightweight cotton. The checked pattern is fresh and summery. I bought a size eight petite and it’s a perfect fit. Very happy with my purchase. Had lots of compliments. Would recommend.”
One M&S customer, however, had a slight issue with the length of the sleeves. They still rated it five stars and explained: “Cool cotton. Lovely style and finish. Fits true to size but the sleeves are a bit short on me. I am keeping it though, but will probably wear a short jacket or cardigan over it.”
