Dresses

$169as of Jul 5, 2026. Check the current price at Ted Baker

The verdict

Maxi dress at $169 on sale with linen tags—classic summer silhouette; solid value for the tier if construction reflects the linen claims.

Fit

Maxi length with linen edit suggests a looser, more relaxed drape than Ted Baker's tailored styles. Expect flow through the hips; sizing likely runs generous.

Quality

Linen blends can wrinkle significantly. Ted Baker's mid-market linen typically has reasonable hand (soft to touch) but lacks the premium linen mills' durability. Expect fraying over time.

Price check

At $169, good value if the linen content is real (avoid blends that are mostly cotton). Linen at this price is generally 30–50% linen; caveat shopper.

Best for

Vacation, resort wear, or summer entertaining—anywhere you're fine with intentional wrinkle and want a cooling, casual maxi.

Care

Linen wrinkles by design; tumble low or line-dry. Cold water, gentle detergent; avoid fabric softener.

Varies by line

Ted 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.
