Dorothy Perkins

Ive only recently started shopping at Dorothy Perkins because I along with what must be millions of young women though it was a clothes shop for "old" women and fuddy duddy's but now Ive been into the store a few times I cannot begin to tell you how wrong I was with that opinion! In the last few years the shop has had a complete image overhaul and whereas before it was more aimed at I would say the older generation it now has clothes aimed at teenagers right up to our grannies and they even do a fabulous maternity range (or so my mother is telling me hehe.) So if your opinion was like mine, just try having a look around the store Im pretty sure you ...  Read the complete review

I don't usually shop in Dotty P's any more, used to be a great favourite but now a bit boring. However, I am now pregnant & looking round the internet for maternity clothing I came across DPs range and ordered 4 items. Fantastic black trousers called naples, and the berry sweetheart top is absolutely gorgeous, also a navy frill jersy shirt and teal drape dress. Cheap, practical but good design to fit my bump. The internet service was also very easy to use, I ordered on Saturday night and received the clothes Wednesday. Free returns if required or you can return to your local store - very useful. I would recommend anyone wanting to create a new wardrobe whilst ...  Read the complete review

Dorothy Perkins is a major high street womens fashion retailer, and is part of the Arcadia group. As it is the only womens clothing retailer not pitching at the blue rinse briggade in the town where I work, it gets a lot of custom, myself included. The stores have a black and white logo, and most of the interior decoration is in these shades as well. This gives quite an uncluttered appearance, although is starting to look a bit dated. The stores stock womens clothing, as well as underwear and hoisery, sleepwear, and lots and lots of shoes! The underwear tends to be on a permenant 3 for 2, and is reasonably priced although not overly long lasting. ...  Read the complete review

I discovered Dorothy Perkins years ago when i walked past and noticed that they had a sale on and noticed loads of gorgeous clothes and accessories. Its my favourite shop for jeans as their jeans are bigger fitting than most other shops. When i was a size 14, i would find a size 12 in Dorothy Perkins jeans would fit me while all other shops i went into were still a size 14. If you have never heard of Dorothy Perkins, it is a womens clothing retailer which operates mainly in the UK. I dont shop in it all the time as i find their clothes although nice are a lot plainer than some other shops i go into. Some of their items are also a little ...  Read the complete review

Dorothy Perkins - petite range I am a small lady (5 feet tall) and struggle to find clothes that fit. More often than not, I have to purchase jeans and trousers and then take them to the nearest clothing alteration shop to have the legs shortened. Obviously, this also costs money and tends to mean that it also works out more expensive. I am a big fan of Dorothy Perkins petite range. They do a good selection and can be purchased both in-store and online. I am a size 6/8 and often find that I can buy trousers for work from the shelf, without requiring any alteration. Sometimes I can even do the same with jeans! (For some reason, shops seem to ...  Read the complete review
