Really like the look of it, but is it nice on? Anyone own it?

I like it

permaquandry · 20/12/2012 18:34

I love it but bit shocked at price tag as Zara dresses normally cheaper than this. It must be a lovely fabric? Vv nice.

FellatioNelson · 20/12/2012 18:40

I really don't like it. I am too old and too fat to wear it, but even if I were young and slim I still would not like it.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 20/12/2012 18:41

I really like it. Have got a similar one in green and black but mine was much cheaper. It's a lot of money for polyester.

FromEsme · 20/12/2012 18:47

I like it, but agree that 70 euro is a lot for that.

SrirachaGirl · 20/12/2012 18:50

I love it. My kind of dress. Sadly my legs are nowhere near that good so I'd wear it with opaque tights.

SrirachaGirl · 20/12/2012 18:51

...and I actually like polyester for dresses as it hangs nicely and doesn't crease.

noddyholder · 20/12/2012 18:54

Love it very Debbie Harry

It is a lot of money eh? Maybe it will be in the sale

Sriracha my legs are alright but just tiny! So am wondering if I'd have to shorten the hem to get the proper look.

usual I'm pretty sure that's why I like it!

I like it, very Denise the Menace Xmas Grin

midnightinmoscow · 20/12/2012 20:40

Have seen it in real life.

It's a very thick material, but very, very short.

I say that as someone who happily flashes her thighs at any given time.

TrillsCarolsOutOfTune · 20/12/2012 20:42

That looks very very short.

midnight that is GOOD because I am also very very short. So it wouldn't look as indecent on me as it does the model. Could wear it with flats even.

Good that it works for you.

The material is really thick, which I like. Good for winter.

Yes I like the thickness too. REALLY hope it's in the sale.

on the other hand it's not even remotely suitable for breastfeeding DD will just have to suffer

I'm tall. On me it would be a jumper Sad

EllenParsons · 21/12/2012 00:36

I thought Dennis the menace as someone else also said! Not too keen personally

JustCallMeDavesHorse · 21/12/2012 00:48

I like it, but to be worn with leggings or skinny jeans

FromEsme · 21/12/2012 01:15

Oh no, not with leggings, would look too boring and casual. Sick of leggings and dresses, not a flattering look on anyone.

wannabedomesticgoddess · 21/12/2012 01:28

I like it! Though think tights better than leggings!

JustCallMeDavesHorse · 21/12/2012 01:31

Where will you wear it? It's so short you will need undergarment protection! That model looks great but if she needed to lean over in a supermarket......

VestaCurry · 21/12/2012 01:35

Not keen because of the Dennis the Menace colourway.

noddyholder · 21/12/2012 08:15

No to leggings or jeans
