John Lewis shoppers are loving this dress, with a growing number of five-star reviews emerging. The general consensus however, is that it runs a little big, so it's worth considering sizing down.

  • "Gorgeous, flattering dress. This dress has a flattering shape and looks good at casual or more formal occasions. It has two layers which stops it from being transparent."

  • "It's so comfortable, an elasticated back waist and an adjustable gathered front. The occasions I bought it for, my stepsons PhD graduation, Wimbledon and Father's Day meal. I think it's my favourite dress this year!"

  • "Lovely floaty dress. After reading reviews I sized down. Nice summery vibe. We just need some sun!"

  • "Beautiful dress, fine cotton, lined. Very feminine. Looking forward to being able to wear it when the weather improves or I go on holiday!"
