      Wine and that open back

      Wore it to my sister's engagement party and the lace-up back got so much attention. The wine colour is rich, and the fluted hem swishes when I walk.

      Emerald for Christmas

      Deep emerald jersey with the square neckline is such a classic shape. The crossed straps at the back are a lovely surprise when I turn around.

      Beautiful, but ties are long

      I love the open back and the fluted hem on the emerald. The ties at the waist are very long, so I had to tuck them in or they trailed behind me on the dance floor.

      Date night winner

      Simple from the front, then you turn around and it is all lacing. The wine jersey is soft and matte with a gentle sheen, and the ruched hip drape is flattering.

      Gorgeous but hand wash only

      The black is so elegant, with that square neckline and fluted skirt. My only grumble is it needs hand washing cold and drying flat, so it is not a quick wear-and-wash dress.

      Black tie ready

      Wore the black to a charity dinner and felt really elegant. The matte jersey looks smooth, and the corset lace-up back is a showstopper.

      Deep wine, no notes

      Honestly the colour is what got me, a proper rich red-purple. Square neckline, lace-up back, and that skirt flares out so prettily at the floor.

      Not one for a bra

      Stunning in wine, but the low open back means a normal bra is out of the question. Fine once I had stick-on cups, just worth knowing before the big night.

      Size up if you want it comfy

      Emerald is stunning and the corset back is gorgeous, but the fitted jersey is snug across my hips. I would size up, then pull the laces to taper it in at the waist.

      Comfortable for a long evening

      I danced for hours at a wedding in the wine one and never felt squeezed. The stretch is kind, and the lacing lets me adjust the waist as the night goes on.

      Birthday dinner dress

      Chose it for my 25th and I have never had so many people ask where it is from. The X straps and lacing at the back make it feel special.

      Little bit dramatic, love it

      Plain from the front so it works for the office party, and the black back lacing gives the drama. The diagonal drape over the hips sits really nicely.

    Questions

    Can I adjust the back?

    Yes. The lace-up back ties at the waist, so you can pull it closer or let it out a little.

    Is the jersey see-through?

    No. It is a matte stretch jersey that stays opaque when it stretches.

    Can I wear a bra with it?

    The back is low and open, so a standard bra shows. A backless stick-on bra works best.
