As someone who oscillates between craving comfort and wanting to look put-together, I’ve always loved the idea of a jumper dress—but too often, they miss the mark. Some are shapeless and frumpy, others are scratchy and restrictive, and most feel limited to just loungewear or casual weekends. That’s why I was thrilled when I discovered Apricot’s Tipped Knitted Jumper Midi Dress in Green on their Irish website. Apricot has long been my go-to for affordable, wearable pieces that blend practicality and style, and at €50, this dress felt like the perfect middle ground between a cozy jumper and a polished midi. After wearing it nonstop for eight weeks—from work meetings to weekend walks, family dinners to coffee dates—I can confidently say it’s the most versatile piece in my autumn/winter wardrobe. It’s not just a “jumper dress”; it’s a hardworking hybrid that proves you don’t have to choose between comfort and elegance. Here’s my full breakdown of the shopping experience, product details, and why this green tipped dress is a must-have for anyone who wants to simplify their wardrobe without sacrificing style.

First, let’s talk about the brand: Apricot. For years, Apricot has stood out in the fast-fashion landscape by prioritizing wearability over fleeting trends. They don’t chase viral styles that feel outdated in six months; instead, they craft pieces that feel modern yet timeless—items you’ll reach for season after season. Their website, apricotonline.com/ie, is a joy to navigate: clean, clutter-free, and packed with all the information you need to make an informed purchase. Unlike some retailers that hide sizing charts or fabric details behind endless pop-ups, Apricot’s product page for the Tipped Knitted Jumper Midi Dress puts everything front and center. From the fabric composition to the care instructions, there’s no guesswork involved—something that gives me confidence when shopping for knitwear online. Apricot’s commitment to transparency and quality is why I keep coming back, whether I’m buying a basic tee or a hybrid dress like this one.

The shopping experience was seamless from start to finish. I stumbled across this dress while browsing Apricot’s “Dresses” section, drawn in by the promise of a “soft knit” and “tipped detail” that added a subtle twist to a classic silhouette. The product photos were incredibly helpful: there’s a full-length shot of the model (who’s 5’8.5” wearing an XS/UK 8) that gave me a clear sense of the midi length and relaxed fit, close-ups of the knit texture and contrasting tipping, and even a view of the crew neckline and ribbed trims. I appreciated that Apricot listed every key detail upfront: fabric composition (62% Acrylic, 24% Nylon, 10% Wool, 4% Elastane), length (approx 110cm), fit (Relaxed), and care instructions. As someone who’s a UK 10 with a slim-to-average frame and curvy hips, I was a little unsure about sizing—would the relaxed fit be too baggy, or would it skim my figure nicely? The size guide, which included bust, waist, and hip measurements for each size, helped me decide on a Medium, and it turned out to be the perfect choice.

Adding the dress to my cart was effortless, and checkout offered all the payment options I could want: credit card, PayPal, and Klarna for those who prefer to split the cost (a nice touch for budget-conscious shoppers). Shipping to my home in Galway was free—always a bonus—and the dress arrived in just three business days. It came in a simple, recyclable Apricot-branded plastic bag, which was practical and not overly wasteful, and inside, the dress was folded neatly with no creases or defects. When I pulled it out of the bag, I was immediately struck by how soft the knit felt—like wrapping myself in a favorite sweater.

When I tried on the dress for the first time, I was hooked. The knit is incredibly soft and plush, with a medium weight that’s perfect for transitional weather and cold winter days. The blend of 62% Acrylic, 24% Nylon, 10% Wool, and 4% Elastane is pure genius: the Acrylic adds warmth and softness, the Nylon boosts durability and wrinkle resistance, the Wool provides extra coziness (without the scratchiness), and the Elastane gives just enough stretch to ensure a comfortable, figure-skimming fit. I was worried the wool content might irritate my sensitive skin, but this dress is buttery smooth against my torso and arms—no itching or discomfort, even after wearing it for 12 hours straight. The green color is rich and vibrant: a deep, foresty shade that feels sophisticated for dressy occasions but warm enough to complement autumn and winter palettes. It’s not a bright, in-your-face green; it’s a muted, earthy tone that’s versatile enough to pair with neutrals (black, beige, cream) or other earth tones (tan, olive) without clashing.

The tipped detail is the perfect finishing touch that elevates this dress from basic to special. The crew neckline, cuffs, and hem are trimmed with a contrasting cream color, creating a subtle, preppy-chic effect that feels intentional and polished. I was worried the tipping might be cheap-looking or uneven, but it’s stitched neatly and evenly, with no loose threads or mismatched colors. The contrast is understated enough to keep the dress versatile, but it adds just enough visual interest to make it feel unique—no plain knit dress here. It’s the kind of detail that makes people ask, “Is that a dress or a sweater?”—a fun conversation starter that highlights the dress’s hybrid appeal.

Let’s dive into the design details. The relaxed fit is spot-on—roomy enough to be comfortable (even after a big meal!) but not so baggy that it loses its shape. It skims over the torso, hips, and thighs without clinging, creating a flattering silhouette that works for a range of body types. For curvier figures, it skims over curves gently; for slimmer frames, it has enough structure to avoid looking shapeless. The midi length (approx 110cm) is absolutely perfect: on my 5’6” frame, it hits just below the knee and above the ankle, which is elegant and practical (no tripping over extra fabric!). For taller women, it will still feel like a true midi, and for shorter ladies, it might graze the ankle—but pairing it with ankle boots or block heels easily adds a little height.

The crew neckline is classic and versatile, framing the neck nicely without being too high or too low. It’s snug but not tight, so it feels comfortable all day long—no adjusting or pulling. The long sleeves with ribbed cuffs fit perfectly: they’re long enough to cover my wrists, even when I’m moving my arms, and the cuffs are snug without being restrictive (no sliding down or bunching up). The ribbed trims on the neckline, cuffs, and hem add texture and structure, helping the dress keep its shape wash after wash. Unlike some knit dresses that stretch out or lose their form over time, this one holds its shape beautifully—even after multiple wears and washes.

One of the things I love most about this dress is its versatility. It’s not just for one occasion; it works for almost everything. For work, I layer it with a tailored blazer and loafers—suddenly, it’s polished enough for client meetings or team presentations. The tipped detail adds a subtle preppy vibe that feels professional but not stuffy. For weekends, I throw it on with chunky ankle boots and a denim jacket—casual, cozy, and perfect for running errands or meeting friends for coffee. For a family dinner, I pair it with knee-high boots and delicate gold jewelry—elegant but not over-the-top. I even wore it to a casual holiday party with tights, heeled mules, and a leather jacket—festive and comfortable enough to dance in. The plain green base with cream tipping means it pairs with almost any outerwear or accessories, making it one of the most versatile pieces in my wardrobe.

Care instructions are simple and manageable: 30-degree cold machine wash, do not bleach, do not tumble dry, medium iron (two dots), and do not dry clean. I was a little worried about washing a knit midi dress—would it shrink, stretch, or pill? But after washing it five times (on a gentle cycle in a laundry bag), it’s held up perfectly. The knit is still just as soft and plush, the green color hasn’t faded, the cream tipping is still bright, and there’s no sign of pilling or stretching. I lay it flat to dry, which takes a few hours, but it’s a small effort for a dress that looks like new after each wash. Unlike some delicate knits that require expensive dry cleaning, this one is low-maintenance—another win for busy lifestyles.

Let’s talk about value for money. At €50, this dress is an absolute steal. I’ve paid twice as much for similar knit dresses from other brands that were scratchy, ill-fitting, or lost their shape after a few wears. Apricot’s version is well-made, comfortable, and versatile—all for a price that’s accessible to most shoppers. When you consider how many times I’ve worn it (at least 20 times in eight weeks), the cost per wear is just €2.50—unbeatable for a piece that works for so many occasions. It’s the kind of item that feels like a luxury but doesn’t come with a luxury price tag, which is exactly what I look for in affordable fashion.

Apricot’s commitment to accessibility is another reason I love this brand. The Tipped Knitted Jumper Midi Dress is available in sizes XS to XL, covering a range of body types, and the price point makes it easy for anyone to add a stylish, warm dress to their wardrobe. Unlike some brands that charge more for plus sizes or detailed pieces, Apricot keeps their prices consistent and reasonable without sacrificing quality. The fact that it’s available on their Irish website with free shipping is also a huge plus—no dealing with international fees or long delivery times.

Are there any downsides? The only minor complaint I have is that the dress doesn’t have pockets. I’m a sucker for dress pockets—they’re so handy for keys, lip balm, or my phone—but it’s not a dealbreaker. I just carry a small crossbody bag when I’m wearing it, and it doesn’t take away from how great the dress is. Another small thing: the relaxed fit might be too loose for those who prefer a more form-fitting midi, but if that’s the case, sizing down could work (just check the size guide!). But honestly, these are tiny quibbles that don’t detract from the dress’s overall excellence.

Overall, my experience with Apricot’s Tipped Knitted Jumper Midi Dress in Green has been nothing short of fantastic. From the seamless shopping experience on apricotonline.com/ie to the high-quality product itself, this dress has exceeded my expectations in every way. It’s cozy, stylish, versatile, and well-made—everything I want in a winter wardrobe staple. Whether you’re looking for something to wear to work, weekends, or special occasions, this dress delivers.

If you’re on the fence about buying it, here’s my advice: go for it. The green color is timeless, the tipped detail is subtle and polished, and the fit is flattering for most body types. At €50, it’s a low-risk purchase that you’ll wear again and again. Apricot has done an incredible job of creating a piece that feels intentional and well-crafted, designed for real life rather than just the runway. I’ve already recommended it to my sister, my best friend, and even my colleague—and all of them have bought it, raving about how much they love it.

In a world of fast fashion that’s full of disposable pieces, Apricot’s Tipped Knitted Jumper Midi Dress is a breath of fresh air. It’s a piece that feels like it was made to last, not just to be worn once. I can’t wait to wear it through winter and into spring (layered with light jackets), and I know it will still be a favorite next year. If you’re looking to add a cozy-chic hybrid dress to your wardrobe that works for every occasion, this one is a must-have. Trust me—you won’t regret it.
