Flippin M&S website - surely "knee length" depends on how tall you are??!!!

Been looking at the lovely drapey jersey dresses on the M&S website (thanks to the GOK thread). Why oh why under product details can't they list the length of the dress?! They say "knee length" but I'm 6 foot so need to know exactly how long it is as some barely cover my bum!

Aaaaargh.

Rant over. Feel better now.

We chatted aaaages ago on the clergy wives thread (I was pp) and I just wanted to say that I have booked myself in for the conference we were talking about - heading off in a couple of weeks. I shall look and see if there is anyone travelling from Scotland there to encourage you to make the trip another time.

Or you might be booked in already and be able to work out who I am over the week!

MayorN - at least boden have a long length option that (in theory, I've not bought a dress from boden yet!) works for me (not for you though!). Monsoon gives dress lengths which is just SO sensible, why don't others websites do that?

LadyPW, hello!! Lovely to hear from you. No, I'm not going this year though would LOVE to know how you find it. I don't know anyone who's going so you'll need to tell me all about it! Will go and see if I can find that thread as have a book suggestion to post on it! Hope you can find me there!
