Perfect petite proportions

I don’t normally wear funnel necks as I felt they didn’t do anything for me and blamed this on my height, 5ft 1.However I kept looking at the charcoal version and when it went on 25% off I decided I would at least try it. It’s lovely, my husband thinks it is really flattering . The fabric is great, I love the gentle ribbing. I would say it is true to size. I’m glad I decided to try it as I so nearly didn’t because of the funnel neck but Laura has designed it perfectly for petite girls.

Sceptic turned Believer

I had longingly drooled over the Olivia dress for months, sceptical it was going to drape sympathetically over my size 12 lumps and bumps.... Then Kirsty happened, I was finally persuaded take a chance .... and now I'm a believer - Laura, I salute you!

Brilliant first purchase

I bought the Olivia in olive and I love it. I've already worn it out to dinner, for a day in London and to the office - it's so versatile and nice to wear.

My new favourite dress

The dress was worth the wait, and as I had a lot on at the start of this year I've had plenty of wear out of it already.
The material feels lovely and it washes really well too, it also travels well, it's been rolled up in a suitcase for two trips already.
I teamed it with brown ankle boots and a wide brown belt (thanks to the try on video). It's comfortable to wear and hangs nicely so I didn't feel self conscious about my lumpy bits.
I also love the colour, I seem to have bought a lot of things in green lately and this darker shade of green is a favourite.
I would recommend as I know I'll continue to get lots of wear out of it.

Wear everywhere dress

What a wonderful dress, so flattering and easy to wear. The design is everything, it’s so perfectly proportioned. It’s a real staple piece to wear again & again. At 4’11’’ I never thought I’d find a midi dress that fits me so perfectly.
