  A summer must have dress

  Bought this dress for a family party and received so many compliments. Material and print is beautiful and cut is v flattering if you have curves. Exposed zip at the back is stylish twist. Loving my dress. Thanks Joules.

  Disappointing

  Bought this based on previous reviews, however when it arrived I was very disappointed...for its price and lack of fabric I would have expected this dress to be lined!. The style is nice and pattern of fabric bold and striking...however its very thin and feels a little cheap. If not for the very pretty style to zip this would look like a very low end dress.

  Perfect!

  I bought this dress for the run of weddings that my husband and I have just attended. The dress is beautiful, nips in perfectly just under the bust. As said in an earlier review, it came down a little low at the front so with a little navy camisole I felt a lot more comfortable. I felt a million dollars and the dress washed perfectly too, just found getting the pleats ironed back in a little tricky!

  Classic!

  Lovely dress. Fit very well - sits just above the knee. Only issue for me is the v-neck which is a bit too low for me, however, have a caramel coloured vest top to fit under it. Very pleased with the dress. Excellent fabric.

  Very flattering

  I am so happy with this dress that I have bought it in both colours the floral one is much more vibrant than it looks in the picture I am 5ft4 and a size 12-14 and this dress is very slimming. Its great for work, evenings out and holidays too. I always find joules dresses to be very well cut and flattering - the Nadine dress is also a favourite of mine. The only reason that I have not given it 5 stars is that the zip does stick a lot on both.

  Great purchase

  Amazing dress, nips in at the right places and foats in the right places too. Brilliant bold colours but not too much in your face. Lovely look on its own or with leggins. Looking at the colours will go right through summer to autumn too.

  fabulous

  Beautiful pattern and very nice fabric. The dress has an exposed black zip at the back which gives it quirky look. This is perfect with tights in winter and bare legs in summer.

  lovely

  This dress fits perfectly and feels so soft thank to the cotton. It looks perfect dressed up in heels or worn casuly with a pair of pumps and jacket :. as mentioned in other reviews the zip does stick slightly but it does not take away the dresses beauty.

  Amazing

  This is a beautiful dress, lightweight and gracious : . It is made with good quality cotton. Again the zip does stick slightly. Perfect to dress up or as a casual dress with pumps and a cardigan.

  Glam!

  Gotta love love LOVE this dress. The fabric is of good quality and a little bit shiny giving a glamorous touch to it. Also the colour is beautiful - more eletronic blue than the picture shows. Very flattering shape for a fuller body.

  Beautiful

  This dress is so lovely, fits perfectly and makes you feel good. The cotton is good quality, not washed it yet but not had a problem with Joules items in the past. The one downside is that the zip sticks a little but if you have some to help that doesnt matter. I think I will be purchasing the striped version too!
