I was about to suggest this! They have a few dresses in there on sale too - I picked up one of their $30 ones (Jersey Wrap Bust I think?) and it's so comfortable! Soft stretchy material too. I found the sizing (UK sizing?) to be pretty accurate - I'm a 14-16 normally, and the size 16 dress fits perfectly.



Absolutely agree with this. I bought the same $30 dress from ASOS, it is SO comfortable, I love it.

Only thing I found with ASOS is that the dresses look really short on the models but were all REALLY long on me. Easy to hem though so it didn't bother me too much.

I also have a couple of Metallicus dresses, and other stretchy dresses from places such as Seed.

Thanks so much for saying that I almost wasnt going to buy them because they looked too short on the models. Im 39yo and dresses that short are just not appropriate for me anymore.

Any idea how long delivery is?

Big W have some dresses like that in a variety of colours, and patterns for only $10 each size 8-16, but they are generous sizing. I also got a stretchy black dress that looks like a wrap dress, and works really well while pregnant, and that was $29. They have the Bonds maternity dresses there for around $30 as well.
