Start with the occasion

Think about how you want to wear the dress and what you already own to go with it. This can help you compare everyday shapes with more formal or embellished styles.

Compare shape and fastening

Look at the neckline, sleeves and fastening, and read any fit description. A size label alone does not explain how a particular dress is cut.

Check length and fabric information

Use the measurements, fabric composition and care details provided for the item. Confirm the colour and current size options with the retailer before ordering.
