    Hi,

    Has anyone got any experience ordering from Want that trend? They're appearing constantly in my news feed and I kinda like the idea of a novelty Christmas dress instead of a Christmas jumper this year.

    I'm wondering what they're like to deal with, and what their sizing is like. They claim they run true to size, but I'm sure Next and H&M also make that claim, yet there's about 2 sizes difference between what each of those consider to be a 10...

    I bought one of their Christmas dresses last year, I found it true to size. It's a polyester/elastane material so not restricting at all. Has that polyester feel to touch, but not uncomfortable to wear, for me anyway, ymmv. Some nice designs if you can get them in your size. Don't think I'd buy another one though.

    I think your confusing with Get That Trend - they are the one's in Donegal Town. I've bought off them before, they have some nice stuff and inexpensive, quick postage.


    Want That Trend - I've never given them much thought. I just clicked onto their website for a nose. This top jumped out a mile at me - it's the exact same pattern but not the same style as a top I bought in Zara in Portugal during the summer!

    I echo this. the novelty ones are grand.
    I have a non novelty one and while the design is lovely, its just the material is a bit..heavy? Only worn it the once

    I wanted to ask this question myself. I looked at one dress and the sizing seemed WAY off - as in, a size 12 was described as fitting a 33 inch waist, when it's normally around 29/30 inches on a standard size guide.

    It also does seem a bit good to be true. Like boohoo.com but classier*.


    *I like boohoo, but there's an awful lot of shïte on it.

    I bought a novelty Christmas dress last year. It took about 3 weeks to arrive. I sent several emails and got no reply. It did arrive before Christmas but I had given up. It was nice enough but the material was weird. It was quite thick and like foam. Like one of those character costumes worn in commercial situations. It's hard to explain. I was glad I bought it and it was fun to wear but customer service was terrible.
