Hmm not my style but I say you can go anywhere with it

VanellopeVonSchweetz99 · 14/12/2017 11:32

Not too worky, quite like it.

PinPon · 14/12/2017 11:38

Looks go anywhere to me. I like it too. Wonder if it would bobble after wearing/ washing though.

Scabbersley · 14/12/2017 11:40

You can go anywhere in any dress. It's nice though. I'd look enormous in it.

SwearyBerry · 14/12/2017 12:37

I think it looks quite versatile. I'd never buy anything in Hobbs before xmas though, they usually have good reductions in the sales!

No. This is a casual dress. Not office suitable in a very corporate environment. Not suitable on a for a formal occasion either. It's essentially a school run, lower level office, lunch or casual dinner dress.

If you wore a jacket it could be worky (at a squeak where i work)

I would say it was a casual dress. It is fairly go anywhere though. Bear in mind that it is shown on a size 8 model who is 5'9" tall and it doesn't do an awful lot for her other than not make her look like a twig.

RatRolyPoly · 14/12/2017 12:47

Yup, pretty versatile, although the more I look at it the more the model looks naked on her top half, bar a couple of strips of thick black tape...

I like it. I read worky as wonky and spent 5 minutes trying to see what everyone else could see wonky about it! I'd say it's go most places. I'd wear it to work day to day but not if meeting clients. And it would work for casual night out / weekends.

It's memorable, so you might not get as many wears out of it as you expect (i.e you won't want people thinking 'here she comes in that dress again, she wore that to A,B and C...). Maybe people don't think that way, but I've always suspected they do 😄

To me it’s a work dress - I teach in a creative subject, so am pretty informal.

TwinklyGiraffe · 14/12/2017 20:01

Thanks all!

I got it! Looks good on!

Love it. Definitely wear anywhere. I’d love to wear that if I wasn’t so fat in the middle. Enjoy!
