Very pleased with my purchase. Fits perfectly - for a tighter fit, size down. Beautifully packaged as is the norm for Kate Burton. Quality fabric and worth every penny!

Far too easy to choose and buy a dress…
Far too easy to choose and buy a dress from Kate Barton. Nice fast delivery via Royal Mail with good notification. The pinafore I chose does not disappoint, it’s, as expected, well made, good fabric and design and just so very easy to wear. Happy customer.

Dear Georgina,
Thank you for taking the time to write a review about your recent purchase from us.
It is always lovely to receive such positive feedback from our customers about the item they have bought and the Pinafore meets your expectation on how well it is made, fabric and the design.
We are glad to hear that it arrived quickly and you were kept updated on it's arrival.
Enjoy wearing it!

A really pretty dress
A really pretty dress. My only issue would be that the lining clings a bit to the dress, you have to shake it down.

Dear Anna,
Thank you for taking the time to write a review about your recent purchase from us.
It's lovely to hear that you bought the Pintuck Dress from us and think it is pretty.
It's also good to receive your feedback on the lining, which we will feed back to our team.
We hope that you enjoy wearing the dress whilst the sun is still shinning.
Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions or queries which we can help answer for you.

My favourite special dress!
My favourite special dress!
Lovely lightweight fabric, perfect for spring, summer (obvs not on the hottest days-long sleeved!)
The contrasting red trim on the pockets and collar & button holes really lift it from ordinary print to something classier.
Fabric is light cotton, fully voile lined which helps with the drape.
Belt is generous, unlike the first linen coat dress I bought from KB, (though this issue got sorted as KB had longer belts made) until now this was my all time fave dress as such gorgeous heavy weight linen fabric & weight for cooler days.

Thank you for taking the time to write a review about your recent purchase from us.
We are so thrilled to see that you came back for more!
We delight to hear that you have returned this summer and bought another Long Fitted Summer Coat from us and are so happy with it. We love the lovely lightweight fabric and the contrasting trim.
Yes, we took on board the feedback we had from customers like you from last year and made the matching belts longer for ease and comfort.
Please let us know if you have any questions or queries which we can help you with.
In the meantime, enjoy wearing this garment out and about.
Kind regards,

Great denim dress
Great denim dress, my fourth purchase from Kate Barton. Quality fabric, fit is very flattering, will take me anywhere. Wear it with boots in the winter and sandals on warmer days. I get loads of compliments when wearing your dresses, have passed website address on to lots of people too !!

Loved the design
Loved the design, fabric and colour. The dress was much too long for me and to shorten it would have adversely changed the style. Sadly I have returned it. NB I am 5’1’’

We hope you find something suitable soon.
We look forward to seeing you again and hopefully next time you will find something that does work in length for you.

Dear Mrs Keating,
Thank you for taking the time to write a review about your recent purchase from us.
We are so happy to hear that the Poet Shirt that you bought is beautiful and made from lovely fabric. Great news that it is a great cut on you and you look good.
Enjoy wearing it as we head into Spring and Summer and we look forward to welcoming you back again soon.
Please let us know if you have any questions which we can help answer for you.

Love the quality of the clothes but…….
Love the quality of the clothes, but the packaging isn’t what one would expect for the price, even in the sale.
Compared to Poetry, which is at a similar price range,
there is no comparison. Whilst a brown paper bag and one piece of tissue to wrap a voluminous dress may be eco friendly and cheap, it does somewhat spoil the excitement of receiving a new piece of clothing. Receiving something from Poetry is at a whole different level ….. quality cardboard box and layers of quality tissue paper make it special.

Dear Elizabeth,
Thank you for taking the time to write a review about your recent purchase from us.
Great to hear that you love the quality of the Harper Dress and other items you bought from us.
Thank you for your feedback on how the packaging appeared on delivery. As an online brand, we are very conscious of avoiding excess packaging with all deliveries. That said, we of course want the products to arrive safely and well presented. We will check with our warehouse to ensure all deliveries are being sent appropriately. We certainly do avoid excessive boxes deliberately, so we may not compare with other brands on that front. This is a conscious decision.
We hope you enjoy wearing your dress when the weather gets warmer.
Kind regards,
The Kate Barton Team
Absolutely excellent!

I bought this as a denim pinafore…
I bought this as a denim pinafore before and when I saw this summer version I thought it would be great for the summer holidays. I was not disappointed when it arrived . The linen is of a good weight and the petite length is perfect for me as I am 5ft 4ins. I just can’t wait now for the warm weather to arrive so I can wear it.

Dear Gilly,
Thank you for taking the time to write a review for your recent purchase with us.
It is great to hear that you came back for a second version in the Linen in this style. It is always lovely to have a returning customer who loves their first purchase enough to buy the same style again in a different colour and fabric.
When the weather warms up again, enjoy wearing it!
Please let us know if you have any questions which we can help you with.
Kind regards,
The Kate Barton Team
Don’t shop on Instagram late at night
The trousers were not the quality I expected. They hang all wrong, which was not only down to an awkward cut but also the flimsy nature of the cord material. With the price of P&P here and back, it cost me £7 just to try them. Will stick with TOAST and COS from now on - much better quality, free shipping and returns.

Dear Helen,
We are so sorry to hear that the cut of the trousers was not right for you. Your feedback regarding the quality is a real disappointment for us.
We absolutely strive for the best possible quality and it’s a real asset of our brand. We haven’t had similar comments regarding our corduroy, but obviously it was not what you were expecting, and we can only apologise for that.
Please let us know if you have any further questions or concerns.
Kind regards,
