Yes, i absolutely LOVE it! So well made, and great print etc. Its made in india, which i always think is better for cotton than china ...

re the fit, i think because its going into winter here i am thinking i will want something a bit thicker underneath ... but i will still wear this one, AND try and find a 12 too.

Some pieces look great, esp. some jackets and dresses, the tops look ok but not outstanding

Lauren Conrad wore a Kate Moss for TopShop dress for her David Letterman appearance:

It's no longer available online, so I guess it sold out.

Any suggestions on how to actually wear it. (This would be my prom dress for this year) I would definitely wear tights but even then it still looks really short on me. I was thinking a short petticoat or tutu underneath or over the dress.
Ha! I wore that dress absolutely everywhere this winter. In addition to several normal parties, I wore it to multiple office christmas parties including my own office's christmas party and I work for a railroad. I always wore it with black tights and black rounded-toe stilettos. Oh and if you thought it was short on you, well, I'm 5' 11'' so it was just plain indecent on me (which I just decided to rock). I also wore a nude camisole underneath. I wore it out once without a camisole underneath and that was a big mistake. No one talked to me, they just stared at me and hoped for a nipple slip.

Man, I had some good times in that dress.

Oxford street had a huge Kate Moss clearance sale last week- all last seasons dresses for between £5 and £15. The Maxi dresses were reduced from £100 to £15. The swallow dress was a fiver. I think a lot of people buy there and sell on, which would explain lower than RRP prices. Apparently theres also some huge clearance Topshop somewhere in London where prices are from £3 and it's buy one get one free all year around.

No NY sales?! That's terrible! ]: So even with a Topshop finally there, it still might end up cheaper to buy on ebay even with shipping prices.

Every Topshop in my area currently has a sale, and in 2 weeks time they go down to even further reductions once all the good stuffs gone.

I'm about 1hr 45 mins from London on the train. Theres a sale on at oxford street at the moment but pretty basic stuff, imo. Lose fitting summer tops, pencil skirts, summer dresses, saw some photographic skirts but only sz 14s. There were a few Unique items sprinkled around and lots of spandex leotards, leggings, skirts and shorts from the work it range. Lingerie sale too.

There's also a shoe sale and lots of accessories are half price. Even the vintage and brands@Topshop items downstairs have a sale on. A lot of the items are around the half price mark or just above.

Might be worth a look if anyones fairly local. Unfortunately, they've put away a lot of the last chance to buy items to make room for the sale stuff, it seems And I usually find the best items there, since they're usually returns of sold out items.

Also, theres still pretty much every single Kate Moss item from the new collection still in stock there!
