CASADEE | DARK NAVY
The verdict
Fit
Ted Baker minis at this tier are fitted and modern, with a focus on waist definition. Dark navy adds visual interest while remaining classic. Sizing is true.
Quality
Consistent mini-dress quality: clean seaming, decent hems, and fabric weight appropriate for a fitted piece. No premium surprises.
Price check
Fairly priced. You're in Ted Baker's mid-accessible band with a color that's more interesting than straight black but still versatile.
Best for
Anyone seeking a dressy mini that reads as slightly more sophisticated than basics, in a color that works across seasons.
Care
Machine wash gently; lay flat or hang dry to preserve the fitted shape.

Fit check: Ted Baker
Varies by lineTed Baker's menswear tops run small and slim — owners consistently size up — while women's numbered pieces skew generous, with bottoms the most likely to run big.
Owners agree the menswear shirts and polos cut slim and small: forum posters call the shirts "on the small side and quite a slim waist," and a golf reviewer who normally wears a medium found a Ted Baker large (size 4) "perfect." The women's side is less uniform: one long-term buyer says the numbered sizing is "on the generous side" (a 3 wearing like a UK 12/14), while forum threads split — tops reported small, trousers and skirts reported big, jackets and dresses roughly true to size. The brand's own 0–7 numeric scales add friction, so checking the per-item conversion chart matters more here than with most brands.
Sizing advice: Size up one in men's shirts, polos, and tees (the cut is slim and small); on women's pieces stay true to size for dresses and jackets but consider a size down in trousers, skirts, and knits.

What owners report about Ted Baker dresses
Sizing dominates owner discussion of Ted Baker dresses: the brand uses its own numbered sizes rather than standard ones, and most owners find dresses cut generously, though fit swings by style — structured pencil shapes run truer while flowy midis run large, and forum threads disagree outright on whether the brand runs big or small. Owners who land the right size report dresses that fit beautifully and last, but forum posters consider the line overpriced at full retail and commonly advise buying on sale.
- Strengths
- When the size works, owners report well-fitting, long-lasting dresses they are consistently happy with.
- Watch out for
- Non-standard numbered sizing plus style-to-style inconsistency makes ordering unseen risky, and posters judge full retail prices poor value — sale buying is the standard advice.
- Sizing
- Ted Baker's numbered sizing runs generous (a 3 maps roughly to a UK 12/14); flowy midi styles run larger than structured cuts, so check each item's measurements.
