Beyond expectations

I've literally this second received my Hannah dress and now I've put her on, I don't want to take her off. Laura always does such a good job of describing colours and fabrics, but even that doesn't do this justice. I'm so used to things making my chest feel uncomfortable- this doesn't. It skim my hips (where I'm currently holding some stress weight) its comfortable on my stomach. The colour is lush. Even my husband (who thought it was "alright" from the pics on the website) had a very enthusiastic response and confirmed that it's so much nicer in person and fit really well. Another The Shortlist knock out

The most versatile, gorgeous dress

I can already tell I will get so much wear out of this beautiful dress. It fits like a dream and is so stylish and timeless, while also looking current and on trend - a skill only The Shortlist seems to have mastered! The details are lovely and everything comes together to make this look like a truly premium piece. I bought both the black and the seafoam - the seafoam is a stunning colour and so lovely for spring and summer, and the black is classic and will do right the way through from spring to autumn, even into winter with the right styling. A triumph!

A perfect dress for British summers

I have bought the Hannah dress in Black. It is beautifully made. The fabric is very premium and hence the dress feels very expensive and not remotely flimsy. I know I will wear it a lot and agree with Laura that it would take you into autumn with tights and boots. I have bought 3 pieces this SS24 and this is my favourite. If you are contemplating buying it I would say DO, while is still available
