One glowing review read: "I bought this for a summer wedding guest outfit and I can't believe how flattering it is. The floaty material and the long almost train like back gives the dress fantastic movement. I'm tempted to get another one in a different colour!"
A second shopper praised: "I purchased this dress for my daughter's wedding this coming summer. The dress is an easy fit and looks smart and elegant. It will be perfect for the occasion!"
Another remarked: "This dress is beautiful, it is as good as it looks in the picture. The fit is excellent, the colour, again, matches the picture and it feels like a quality product; great value for money. I purchased it for a wedding and with stilettos, clutch and a fascinator it looks gorgeous. I can also wear it with flats for summer parties too so I wholeheartedly recommend this dress."
Fashion deal of the week
Many women will know that no summer wardrobe is complete without a pair of sandals to compliment all your outfits.
However, as stylish as they can be, they can often cause a bit of irritation when worn for hours on end. Luckily, New Look shoppers seem to have found a perfect pair that are said to be "extremely comfy".
The high street retailer's Wide Fit Black Leather-Look 2 Part Chunky Sandals aren't just stylish, as shoppers say they "never rub" or "irritate". Priced at £29.99 a pair, these sandals are available in shoe sizes ranging from a UK 3 to 9 online.
It's not just the wide-fit design that make these £29.99 sandals a comfy choice, as they also boast a cushioned insole that is both "spongey" and "perfect for all day use". There's also an extra measure across the insole, joint and instep.
Available in a trendy black colourway, fashion enthusiasts say that these wide-fit sandals will be "perfect with any outfit". Meanwhile, the open-toe design, leather-look finish and gold-tone hardware give them a classy feel.
Averaging an impressive 4.6 rating on the retailer's website, numerous shoppers have fallen head over heels for the Wide Fit Black Leather-Look 2 Part Chunky Sandals that they say are "light on your feet" and are the "comfiest ever".

Another fashion fan added: "I generally don't like buying dresses as I feel nothing fits or looks quite right on me but this is one of the best dresses I have ever bought. I have it in green, size 18, it fits perfectly, very flattering and I feel great in it. Dress it up with heels or go casual with flats, looks and feels fab either way. I love it!"
It is worth mentioning that some shoppers have found the V-Neckline to be a little revealing. One three star review read: "I had to return this dress be cause it gaped at the front and needed a button or some sort of fastener couldn't be worn as it was. But it is a lovely dress and if you are handy with a needle it could be for you."
