Customer feedback

"THRILLED AND DELIGHTED..."
I am thrilled, thrilled, thrilled with this dress and the colour .... Chartreuse.... is fantastic. I bought the petite size because I am only 4'10" and it fits so well. The shorter length style of the dress will now give me the chance to wear it layered over the top of my other lagenlook dresses and my palazzos and because the dress has sleeves it gives the layering a totally different look.

"BUY ONE NOW. I'M SERIOUS"
This shirt is a thing of utter beauty. The fabric makes you swoon, the feel of it, the total craftsmanship, the design excellence. The cuffs are beyond perfection. The style is totally flattering.I look and feel like myself, a Bohemian dandy! DO NOT HESITATE to buy. I sized up one size for a little extra swagger. It could not be more perfect. I'm giddy! And glamorous! I love love love Layercake. 😘

"OVER THE MOON OVERALL"
This Lagenlook Playsuit is a dream to wear. It looks amazing and is the epitome of comfort. Beautifully stitched and cool pockets to boot.
My playsuit is the envy of all who see it. I absolutely love it. So much so that I didn't let the fact that I was in the U.S keep me from owning one.
Thank you to The Slow Wardrobe

"QUALITY AND STYLE"
I love my lagenlook dress in the colour Bitter Lime. It is so well made with high quality linen and is an extremely stylish, comfortable and unique design. I was a little worried about the length when I ordered because I am only 4'10'' tall, but it fits beautifully stopping at ankle length. I can't wait for the weather to improve so I can show it off and maybe even layer it with the teal coloured smock I bought previously. I am really, really glad I bought this dress.

"BLISS"
Oh wow. Glorious colours. So well made! How I love Layercake. You can mix and match. Each piece I have TRANSFORMS my wardrobe. The smocks are a layering staple. They are wardrobe MAGIC. Thanks Linda and Andrea! Clothes that make me feel like me.

"ELEGANT"
I'm right at the top end of the large size and was worried I'd been too optimistic, but these are comfortable and roomy (even when sitting all curled up) whilst being elegant. These are going to give me a rival for my favourite high lows. How many colours can I collect?

"I LOVE WEARING MY SMOCKS"
So happy to receive another of these fabulous smocks in the post. They look great and I love wearing them. Beautifully made and really comfortable to wear. Plus the really roomy front pockets are so useful. Thank you Linda for your excellent service too.

"ADDICT"
I have umpteen Layercake garments (but still not enough!); playsuits, trews, dresses, skirts, tunics and smocks (not tried the dungarees - yet) - this gorgeous short check duster complements them all. The fabric drapes beautifully, skims the rear end perfectly and the sleeves are just the right length. A fabulous light coverall without bulk. You know you need one!

"WHITE LINEN SHIRT"
Beautiful fabric, shape and style is stunning and the professionalism of the finish of the garment is excellent. Thank you so much.
