Spring dresses to suit your curves!

We have a vast collection of stylish and pretty dresses that are just begging to be worn this Spring season. How would you describe your dress style? We’ve got three frocks that we think you’ll love…

Blue Crinkle Maxi Dress

This maxi dress will look fabulous with a white bolero is you like to cover your shoulders! With a delicate sequin detail towards the V-neck crossover and underbust band really adds to the pretty two tone blue print.

Pretty Pink Dress

This vibrant print dress from the Changes By Together collection is perfect for Spring and Summer wearing! There’s a beautiful wrap detail under the bust-line which is ruched and flows and flatters nicely over the tummy - perfect if you have tummy worries!

Turquoise Cocktail Dress

A classic and sumptuous dress from the Arlene Phillips range with a contemporary twist - we love the hand embellished short sleeves. The cut of this dress will give you a streamline silhouette, it sits elegantly below the knees, has a slight V-neck and the short sleeves will allow for a little arm coverage.
