Is lace over now...?

[80sWaistcoat]

teal lace

As a poster said on her to me a couple of days ago - 'maybe we are all over the lace now...'

But, ordered the above, waiting for it to arrive, for a Christmassy dinner out with friends. 46, good tits, hoping its going to look nice and not 'a bit last year.'

What do you think?

What Ganoush said

OP I like that teal dress, great for curves and boobs no? I have a cheaper one similar to that in berry that I got off Asos. I feel quite slinky in it and so long as DH and I like it who cares what anyone else thinks?

Agree looks good for curves and boobs ( will have to go to H of F now and try it on...)

I think it's the shape that makes it look dated. There's some lovely lace Victoriana styles in, midi length, high neck. These look fab. Like the Whistles one which is a bit Self Portrait at the bottom.

Went to a wedding do recently. Over 30 it just is naff in a dress.

It arrived, I tried it on, and you know what...it looks good. Curves in all the right places, nice waist and it's a great colour.

I don't think it looked naff.

I'll keep it even if it is lace!

Good for you! A dress that suits and flatters you is worth keeping.

good!

Oh, I so hope lace is over. I want to pick this little cutie up at a bargain price

Pleased you liked your dress...waistcoat. It's how you feel that matters.

Someone mentioned velvet. I find velvet very old fashioned. Can't see me buying into that at all. But then if it's styled in a very modern way and I look fabulous in it....who know?

The high necked dress is only good if you're a skinny 20 year old, not for a forty something hour glass.

Jealous of your good tits! Mine have been fucked since I was 15 :(

Good tits is all I got though. And a Lacey dress! Sorry about yours, bet theirs other good stuff going on though.

I hope not. Have lovely 2 yr old red lace dress with black lining ,so it isnt 'shouty' red, if you know what I mean.Was very expensive ( I bought it after tests for breast cancer came back 'benign' so I knew I wasn't going to die-well, not imminently . Went a bit mad) Soft beauiful fabric, not scratchy ,but I've worn it only twice so on 'cost per wear' I'm not doing well . I think its classic and will never date

And I'm 65 brenda so there.

I have a black lace over a nude underlay dress which is similar in cut to the teal one and I planned to wear it to the office party. I'm a boobylooby hourglass. This thread has made me sad :(

ghetto. Fashion isn't important, if you feel dab in it and it suits you then that's what important. I love the look of mine and I think it is classic!

In a good way not an m and s way!

Fuck fashion, wear what suits you and makes you feel good! ( one of the great things about ageing is that you're not such a slave to fashion but you also know what works for you)

So don't be sad Ghetto

The more contemporary lace Victoriana dress back there would make me look at least 2 sizes bigger because it doesn't accentuate the waist and would give me the attractive monoboob/ham arms combo. Stylish.

Fuck it, I look good in my dress. I might run it past me stylish, 20 something daughters.

An item that fits and flatters is never not stylish.

Id look like the granny from Giles in the conremporary lace dress. While I'm actually going more for the look of the second wife from Latin America in Modern Family.

I bloody love the teal dress, so nerr.

I love lace - have dresses, tops and skirts in it.

Cheap lace isn't so great but good quality lace is classic and stylish.
