Tips for finding the best ASOS dresses

While spending some time searching for the best dresses on ASOS can seem a little daunting there are a few tricks to make it feel less painful. Our top tip is to whittle down your options using the site’s filters. We recommend starting off with the size filter – this way you can avoid feeling disappointed when a gorgeous frock isn’t available in your size. If you’re after a certain colour, like a sage green dress, or shape such as a bloat-friendly smock dress, then you can also apply a colour or style filter.

How can I find the best ASOS dresses for my body type?

ASOS offers a wide range of dresses suitable for various body types. You can use their filters to narrow down options by silhouette, length, and fit. Also, reading customer reviews can provide valuable insights into how certain dresses fit different body shapes.

Are ASOS dresses true to size?

ASOS provides a detailed sizing guide for each item, including measurements and fit advice. However, since sizing can vary between brands and styles, it's a good idea to check the specific measurements provided for each dress you're interested in and consider reading reviews from other shoppers to determine if the dress runs true to size.
