APC Madras Dress, Water flower print, size XS




This listing is on behalf of Rebecca. Please email me with any questions, and I will forward them to her.



Hi all,

Well, as many of the other sellers have said, my stupidity is your gain! I ordered this A.P.C dress online before Christmas. I had hoped to get it on time to go on vacation. However, it got "lost" at my local post office and didn't arrive on time. I only returned home yesterday to try it on and find out that it's way too small for me. To add more pain, the dress has gone on Sale! And I've missed the deadline for returns! So, I purchased this dress for 135euros plus postage. It now retails for 92.50euros (though this size, the extra small, is now sold out). I am obviously offering it at a price lower than the Sale price... and for those American readers, who cannot purchase items from the APC website, this might be a particularly good value purchase.

It's a fabulous dress and I actually liked the colour far better in reality than in the pictures on the website. Since A.P.C is not trend-led this dress can be worn season after season. It's very lightweight cotton so perfect for spring/summer, yet layered with heavy tights and a cosy knit, it would also look good in autumn/winter.

Description (as described on website): 100% cotton. Straight cut on top, flared skirt. Front buttoning. Gathered at shoulders, front and back. Back yoke. High collar. Small ruffles at neckline, buttoned placket and wrists. Long sleeves. Cuff with buttoned slit. Side pockets.

Measurements: Length, from top of collar to hem = 47inches
Width, narrowest part = 19 inches

Condition: Brand new, will just send in the box in which it arrived.


Paid: €135 + €18 postage (equivalent to £137 or $220)
Asking: £90 including UK postage OR $160 including shipping to the US.

I would prefer to take payment via Paypal, as it's just easier, first come first serve! And I’m off to order a size small if there are any left!
