    Anyone got one?
    I registered my email address but never got a message...
    Was it a rip off or real bargain?

    They were real bargains, all the dresses have recently been on the website for full price, so around £30. So wanted the polka dot dress before the offer too.

    The only thing putting me off is the inflated delivery of £5.99 to Northern Ireland. Mainland is £3.99 so this annoys me

    Try Yours Clothing ebay shop? It's £1.99 delivery mainland, so may be better for you too?

    I may be repeating as not gone back on thread, but if you click 99p dress sign up, it gives you a code for £10 off £20 spend.

    I wasn't impressed with the selection on offer on the website, but found their shop on eBay. Postage is cheaper, and they have offers of 10% off 2 or more items or £5 off £40 spend. The selection is different to the website too. They also combine postage on each item it isn't £1.99 per item. Hope this helps.
    Still looking for the plot...... Anyone seen it???

    I have to say that I don't know anybody who has actually managed to buy the dress, it sounds to me they put one or two dresses for sale at 99p and collected thousands of email addresses from people wanting to buy it.
    They must have known the DM was going to publicise it (and trying to make some money through affiliate links), it would have cost them a fortune if they had actually sold a lot of dresses at a loss.
    Hope it wasn't just publicity at very little cost. Not impressed so far.

    I managed to get one yesterday, they emailed me to say the dresses were back in stock so I ordered the polka dot one for 99p, they sold out very quickly again though.

  • I got the red one and it came today but despite ordering my usual size it fits horribly, might be one for ebay as really not worth returning for £1
  • Just wanted to say a quick thank you to those people who recommended Taking Shape. I ordered some jeans, less than a tenner a pair with the 15% discount and I love them. They're a great fit for me. I ordered 2 different sizes as I wasn't sure which would be right. Turns out there's not much difference between the two so I'm keeping both. Will definitely buy from them again.

    Great to hear :). I love their coloured jeans, but I am 5'9'' and they're marginally too short for me.

    As an aside, they've added more lines to the sale, plus the stores at least are running a promotion for 20% off for new customers...you need to have a flyer, but no harm in asking for one in store (as it can also be used on the website).

    They're also bringing in new lines...I work there weekends, and every time I go in there's new stuff. Some of it is *gorgeous*, but I have noticed they're using a lot more viscose, which will be no good in hot weather. So it's a case of thinking through what will work for you.

    Yeah the coloured jeans would be no good for me either, I'm 5'10". The Leeza jeans are perfect though and a much better fit than the Evans jeans I bought a couple of months ago.

    Ladies, I need your help! My leggings are a collection of faded and full of holes, saggy looking objects! I REALLY like a couple of thick pairs I bought years ago, but cannot find similar anywhere. The label is extremely faded, but I think it says ninety something per cent polyester, and the rest cotton. I cannot be certain. I don't know how to describe them in order to search for them.
    I think they may have come from simply be about 6 years ago, I don't have an account any more though. Any help very much appreciated.

    Also, am short! Leggings from Yours are usually too long :(

    I find the leggings in the Tu range from Sainsbury's great. I'm short too. Sizing is generous
