For those worried about sizing, some describe the fit as 'generous' and hail the garment as 'a lovely dress for warm summer evenings'.
It's further applauded for being both 'stylish' and 'fun', making it a top choice for spring events and weddings.
However, it might not be the best choice for those of a shorter stature, as petite or regular skirt lengths are not offered.
That being said, the fabric could easily be adjusted to fit your needs.
For a similar patterned dress available in petite, regular or tall sizes, consider Boden's Marcia Jersey Midi Shirt Dress. Usually priced at £98, shoppers can get it for £83.30 by using the code PQ4D at checkout.

Bvlgari Kaleidos: Colors, Cultures and Crafts
Classical elegance and Mediterranean heritage meet daring innovation in the artisanal jewellery of Bulgari, the Rome-based luxury house that's become synonymous with exceptional craftsmanship over its 140-year history. This show, the brand's largest in Japan and its first in a decade, offers an opulent journey through nearly 350 pieces of jewellery and contemporary art. Its name a portmanteau of the Greek words kalos (beautiful) and eidos (form), the show presents a kaleidoscopic narrative where colour is both the medium and the message. It showcases Bulgari's use of hues as a hallmark of its innovation, from the postwar 'chromatic revolution' in gemstones to the vibrant combinations that define the brand's legacy today. Divided into three thematic chapters, the exhibition explores colour through scientific, cultural and sensory lenses. Contemporary artists Mariko Mori, Lara Favaretto and Akiko Nakayama offer personal meditations on the theme, while scenography by architect Kazuyo Sejima and design studio Formafantasma unites Roman grandeur with Japanese minimalism.

Rochelle Humes looks chic in 'feminine' and 'comfortable' top
The ripped summer top is from Rochelle Humes' Next edit and comes in four colourways A key way to nail summer style is to opt for easy-to-pair causal tops that can be worn with everything from linen trousers to shorts and denim. Lightweight wardrobe staples can take the stress out of planning and accessorising an outfit on a daily basis. This Morning presenter Rochelle Humes exudes effortless chic, and luckily, fans can buy some of her pieces thanks to her collection with Next. The former pop star has been showcasing some new summer drops on the Next website, including a smart, linen-blend ribbed T-shirt that is versatile and stylish. The Crew Neck Short Sleeve Top is £28 and comes in four colours, including black, ecru, red and an orange striped option. It is available in small, medium, large, and extra large sizes, and has a figure-hugging fit. For those who would prefer a looser-fitted T-shirt, especially on hot days, this Heart Embroidered T-Shirt is £35 at Nobody's Child. The classic white tee has a crew neck, a relaxed fit and turned-up short sleeves. Elsewhere, Roman offers a white blouse (£32) in a crinkle material. The no-iron blouse has a light and airy fit. As it is made from a no-iron material, it's easy to throw on. It also comes in a lime colourway. Back to Next's top, Rochelle pairs it with wide-leg lightweight jeans and gold accessories. One shopper who bought the ecru hue rated it five stars and said: "I love my new blouse. It is feminine and very comfortable to wear. The size is good." An additonal buyer who chose the striped version said they didn't like the length, writing: "Gorgeous top, loved the colours but felt it was a bit too short in length for me so returned it. Otherwise, a lovely summer top." Another added: " My new top is gorgeous, I can't wait to wear it. Thank you again, Next." Another customer gave it two stars, commenting: "This top's material is very thin and nearly see-through, not great quality. The fit is a bit tight too." "Nice and comfy fits perfectly," a fifth concluded.
