Do we like this dress?

And it's polyester. That's bad, right? Static and riding up and everything? But I still kind of like it.

Not really doing it for me - pattern could be overwhelming unless you have very strong colouring...seems a bit 'severe' too but that's probably because it fully buttoned up on the pic.

Hmmm. Am very pale, blue eyes, dark caramel choppy bob. Tend to suit strong and dark colours best. The buttoning is a bit severe though. Dunno. Anyone else?

I don't like the neckline. Or the belt.

SundaySimmons · 17/09/2013 07:59

Meant to say that it would suit me!

I have very dark hair, wear dark eye make up and am tanned so this would suit me colour wise and I am slim so the shape would suit too.

It's not going to be good is it? Thanks!

Oh I kind of like it.
Open the neck, a bit of jewelry.

Really? Maybe I should juts order it and see. Have to say the polyester thing is putting me off a bit. Envisage it just clinging to my legs and then riding up my thighs.

I see why you like it. I have this and it is great on. I wear it with black tights and a black belt

cardamomginger · 17/09/2013 11:17

Does it ride up or get loads of static?

It's been fine although tbh when its cold I do have a long thin cotton vest under it. I know this is daft but some polyesters seem better quality than others.Confused I suppose it's like any fabric, leather, cotton whatever, you get good ones and cheaper ones.
You can always return it, no harm in trying.

Just no.

Umm I don't think I like it.
But it is hard to tell from a photo.

Might be different on, and with shoes etc.

I quite like it but would change the belt if possible. Can see it with a long grey cardigan and bright pink lipstick.

cardamomginger · 17/09/2013 21:28

Thanks everyone. A hung jury I see! Will probably just order it and return if it's ghastly or rides up.

Thank you!

I don't like it. Sorry. Much too busy. I prefer plain colours no patters and can add accessories to change it up.
