This dress looks worse on the model...

...but it looks nice when it's just a dress

Here

I don't think I have any parties to go to that would require a dress like this, but I thought it looked fun. The model has put me off now.

Well, people would point and laugh at me if I wore that. But you are in your twenties (yes?) so you would be okay. But yes, the model is not doing much for it.

Trills have you been at the gin Wink

That is an awful dress.

It's a bit scary even for a slim twenty something. The bit at the bottom plus the horrible colour is OTT in my opinion. I would do this Hmm at anyone wearing it. Sorry!

It looks a bit like when a my dog eats burst party balloons and then throws them back up.

Uggggg. The thing that lets it down in the god-awful colour and the cheap material. I saw IRL a dress like this, but in high quality silk charmeuse and a light dusky rose - it was stunning.

That is vile.

Fluffypoms · 22/09/2010 18:45

Its very Katie price Grin

No, no, no.

I mean - really.....

TrillianAstra · 22/09/2010 18:53

That is what I mean, it looked red and shaped, then the model put it on and it became apparent that it was in fact pink and shapeless with silly rises on.

Dear Lord, some of the other ones on that page are even worse.

I have actually bought some reasonably nice cheap and cheerful summer dresses from that site.

Quality it aint though.

And as a 38 year old mother, I think most of their dresses mean that I am not their 'target deomographic...'

Don't you want to work the monochrome magic? With platform ankle boots?
