I can't decide if I like it or if it looks a bit frumpy.

Yes. Desperately so.

It's very sack like.

I quite like it. The colour would look dreadful on me but better on a different skin tone. I think it looks cool and relaxed, would be good with a denim/biker jacket.

I'm not sure the colour would look OK on me really.

On one hand it looks cool and float but on the other hand it looks really old fashioned.

Boring and frumpy. Don't do it.

Frumpy is all about attitude.

Have you got a figure that can manage that style? If so, and if you like it, go for it.

I love it. You can really dress it up. Accessorise, accessorise, accessorise. Chunky necklace and bracelet, dangly earrings with a big bag.

poppym12 · 03/10/2018 22:02

I'm not sure on the style or the colour so I won't buy it.

I really want a floaty dress that isn't short or down to my ankles and isn't made in a hideous flowery print but seem to be drawing a blank.

If it didn't have stupid cap sleeves I might give it a whirl

I think it's alright but it depend if you are overweight and how you style it. Bit of an apple wearing hush puppies and a sensible cardigan not so great. With black ankle boots and a biker OK.

Vicar’s wife serving tea to pensioners, circa 1987. Even the model can’t save it.

I think it would look great on someone with a busty hourglass figure.

I like it but it’s too loose. I have a similar dress in navy but it’s much more fitted with a small collar and belt so it doesn’t look like a sack but it’s a similar length. It looks very 50s and I love it.
