    I have bought 6/7 dresses from boohoo and I find their sizes to be very accurate and the quality of every dress I have bought has been very good

    Could always chance it and send it back if it doesn't fit....

    I'm tempted to do that! Just found out you can contact them and ask if certain stock will be coming back in. Fingers crossed!:) I've come across it on ebay, but again it's only available in an 8.

    That's a pity. I bought stuff online off boohoo and no problem with size some I picked either an 8 or 10 depending on the outfit or if they had available size. I can fit in either but mainly 10 but sometimes go for 8 depending on the style. I usually see if there similar outfits/dress in the shops fit them on for sure and see if it suits or go with my usual size. I can tell just by looking at something if it fit me or suit me or not but find I do need to fit it on to be sure.

    I've bought midi dresses but that slightly short at the front but long at the back but I am short in height so can't go for something too long it be trailing off the ground with/without heels/shoes/sandals.

    Not sure where they based but the postage came from portlaoise or Uk. I am sure they be ok with you returning it or you could ask them to keep one for you the next size. AX paris is another place that might do the dress.

    I find them quite true to size. If the dress doesn't have a zip, you may be able to get away with the smaller size.

    They have free returns too, just so you know.

    I saw the exact same dress in No Name last year, I reckon a few places stock it. I also reckon you'd get away with an 8 from Boohoo. It's sold elsewhere as S-M/8-10.

    Wow thanks very much! Decided to go with it in the 8 after seeing that. :p

    I have that dress, it's quite stretchy but figure hugging. I fit a 10 or a 12, bought the 10 in this and it fits perfect, i'd say you will be grand with the 8.

    Thanks for the advice. The material is really stretchy and not that cheap stretchy fabri either, fitted perfectly :D

    Just saw this skirt on boohoo.com but have never bought from them before - I have a slim waist and slightly wider hips so just wondering if a 10 would be ok or would a size 12 be better?

    Anybody bought a skirt from them before?

    This is the skirt btw:

    That skirt seems to sit on the waist so it might fit even though you say you have wider hips. However, the dress I bought in a size smaller was very stretchy jersey material, this skirt looks like a stiffer material. There might not be much give in it. It may be possible to take it in or let it out accordingly if you are any good with a needle and thread!
