lovely

Do you think it would be suitable for a wedding? Do you think it will be as nice in real life?

Or have I got it wrong, is it horrible?

Why did you ask if you've got it wrong and is it horible? In your title you said you love it, that's all that matters. Asking on here is going to get loads of different views, everyone has difference tastes.

But I like it

I love all Fever dresses. That one doesn't look great in the picture, but I reckon it will be fabulous in RL. Perfect for a wedding...and Fever dol ovely little cardis too...although they are about as expensive as the dresses.

I think it's beautiful. It would suit me...perfect for my figure and colouring. But no place in my lifestyle for such a dress

coco I ask because I don't have any real style sense, I often get it wrong, I am new to this looking good thing but the style and beauty boards have taught me lots recently!

I'd look a twat in it, but it is lovely if you are that type.

Not actually sure what that type is, but you know what I mean.

Get it.

I like the way it says the length is "just above the knee". It can't be that length on everybody.

I dying off for one of those Bardot dresses now. Damn you omvdb.

Oh yes that's one of the ones I had admired on there, good price too but I am picky about materials so need to see & touch things in RL otherwise end up playing the order & immediately return game ad nauseum!

I'm trying to think what their sizes are like. I always buy a 12 in Fever and Next...I don't buy stuff from New Look. I have been surprised how fitted Fever dresses are on top..I'm a 10 on top, but wear padded bras, and the 12 can be slightly tight.

Lovely - and very pretty.
Would expand my hips too much but I'm envious of anyone who can wear it - as I'm sure you can.
Peep-toed slingbacks to go with, maybe?

Thanks for the shoe adivce, I know nothing about shoes!!!

Lynette so you find them a similar size to Next? I have teeny tiny fried egg boobs so hopefully shouldn't be a probloam.

Will my hips look big in it then?

Sorry I didn'yt mean everyone's hips would look big - just that mine are proportionally wider than 'norm' so that shape I would probably avoid - although I should try it as it's really feminine.
