Alina | Heart Initial Necklace

I wore it for eight hours at my son's wedding and never once tugged at it. It moves with you rather than holding you in.

The fabric drapes rather than clings, so it skims the tummy area completely without looking like a sack.

I am between a 12 and a 14 and took the larger one. That was the right call; the smaller would have pulled across the bust.

Cool on a warm day, which is more than I can say for most of my wardrobe. I have had a comment every time I have worn it.

Both halves of the set fit the same, which almost never happens. I can get dressed in the morning without standing in front of the wardrobe.

I am 5ft 8 and it still comes below the knee. The sleeves cover the tops of my arms, which is the first thing I check now.

Quick delivery and properly packed. It came out of the bag ready to wear, with only a soft fold line that dropped out within the hour.

A very flattering shape. The lining is on the thin side, so I wear a slip underneath and then it is perfect.

I took it on a two week cruise and wore it four times. It washed in the cabin sink and was dry by morning.

I am 67 and wanted something that was not either frumpy or twenty years too young. This sits exactly in between.

The waist sits at my actual waist instead of halfway up my ribs, which changes the whole look of it.

Wore it to a lunch in the sun and stayed comfortable through the afternoon. The fabric moves air rather than sticking to you.

Pretty print, good length, no complaints about the fit. The zip needs a gentle hand the first few times, which is why I have given four stars.

Real support through the bust and the straps do not dig in at the shoulders. I swam in it rather than sitting beside the pool.

I ordered a second one in another colour three days later. It needs no ironing, which at my age counts for a great deal.
