I love the colour but I dotn think the shape would do much for me, I am a pear and a bit of a short arse.

nice except too foofy up top, the shoulders need to finish just before they become sheer if you see what I mean.

Great colour though

nancy mac you'll have to download the catalogue though.

in fact I would probably gather the shoulder bits up and secure them with little loops (plaited gold would look good) so that the skin of your shoulders was properly exposed to balance out the frou frou shape of the skirt

the picture of my one isn't too good as it's just on a hanger and too dark to see the detail.
believe me, it's lovely.
page 4 of the catalogue, item 3

Very nice, I love the colour. I actually like the shoulders, but it depends on your shoulder/collar shape and upper arms as to whether it would flatter or just look awful.

I think it's the sort of dress that needs to be tried on before buying.

Could be v unflattering on less than pert upper arms.
