John Lewis' versatile £22 black dress is back in stock: 'Fit is very forgiving'
It'll soon be the trickiest time of year to dress for - when it's too hot for jumpers and thick coats, but still a little too chilly to brave summer clothes.
While hunting for classic staples suitable for tricky temperatures, we noticed that a sell-out dress is finally back in stock at John Lewis.
With rave reviews from customers who say it's "simple and forgiving", as well as perfectly pairs "comfort plus elegance" we're sure this classic black dress won't be around for long.
It's versatile, forgiving, flattering and for just £22, is sure to be an incredibly affordable addition for your between-seasons wardrobe.
Why we rate it
This soft jersey, round-neck jumper dress is something you can pull out again and again throughout the year.
During that spring-to-summer changeover, it's a useful throw-on piece that you can team with trainers. Simply throw on a leather jacket or blazer when the temperatures drop a little more at night.
Later in the year when it's turning from summer-to-autumn, you can layer it over thick tights or leggings.
The fit is hugely flattering too - it flows beautifully over the body, without clinging anywhere.
The dress - made from 95% EcoVero viscose and 5% elastane - is easy-care, too, as it's machine washable at 30°C.
And if you put it on a coat-hanger and hang it up to dry, hopefully it'll not need much, if any ironing.
That's a big win if ever we heard one!
