Stunning!

I ordered this in a size 12 after size chart, and the dress fit perfectly to my curvy body- very flattering and I have never felt more beautiful in a dress. The fabric, fit and the 30s feeling is simply perfection. Thank you HOF for making such beautiful garments! I wear your clothes with such pride & joyšŸ«¶šŸ»

The most beautiful 30's silhouette

My absolute most favourite House of Foxy dress. I bought the brown version many years ago and I am still in love with it. Naturally I had to purchase the navy version and I can 100% say it is just as beautiful in this colour! It is a lovely comfortable material but still provides gorgeous shaping to the figure. Would love to eventually see this dress in many more colours! Sadly have to add on that I had to go in and restitch all of the buttons as they were not stitched very securely to the dress and one popped off.

Fabulous 30s elegance

I have never been a fan of 1930s clothing, but I kept being drawn to this dress until I eventually thought I would have to give it a try, and I absolutely love it. I don't like longer length dresses but this design with it's fluted out hem is just tres elegant. I love the floaty collar around the neckline (although I did have to stitch up the neckline a little as it was too low cut for me, but this was easy to do.) It was also too big on the waist for me but I managed to alter this by just stitching the belt in tighter on one side. I love that the skirt is partially lined and I really love that it has a back zip which makes it so much easier to get on and off (unlike the1940s dresses) .It is also a lovely shade of blue and a lovely material which drapes beautifully.This is a dress I shall wear a lot.

Stunning dress with amazing fit

Wow! I have just received the dress and I had to leave a review immediately. The quality is fantastic and the fit is impressive. I was not sure whether to choose a 10 or 12 so I had a chat with the customer service and decided to go for a UK10. The dress fits perfectly and is very flattering. If it helps my measurements are 37.5" 26" 35.8".
