Just wondered what everyone thought of this dress?

Pink Dress

Have a couple of spring weddings and thought I could wear it with a statement necklace like the model with perhaps orange contrasting shoes / bag?

I'm 5'9, size 12 (with a puchy post CC tummy) and 35 if that helps! Quite pale skinned though..

I like it. It's a nice cut. It would go well with a nice oversized clutch Smile

I prefer the 2nd, i love the pockets & its a real statement.

Not sure about the first.... A little plain & the colour might wash you out.

Prefer the Cos - more style. The first one is a bit old lady-ish.

I like the Cos one a lot, but think the Oliver Bonas dress might be more flattering?

The words, 'voluminous pleated skirt' make me feel daunted.

I like them both but agree with Bee about the first one.

Thanks all, think I'll order the COS one and see.

Helloboys I know what you mean, hoping lots of new dresses appear soon, if I don't like the cos one I'll hold out.

Bee - agree, it might look terrible on, volumionous and pouchy stomach might not work!!!

Mellow - No, no! It might look amazing on! I didn't mean to dampen your ardour for the Cos dress, because it's great Smile
