I wouldn't. Not conservative enough for work party.

Greyhound22 · 03/12/2018 21:16

What type of do is it?

halfwitpicker · 03/12/2018 21:16

Once again, depends where you work

Nic165 · 03/12/2018 21:16

That's what I thought. I may hit the shops again!

It looks like a roller blind - definitely not!

If you’re the right side of 25 with not a roll of fat in sight, then go for it!

It’s a pretty unforgiving dress - that material will cling and it will necessitate the dreaded strapless bra!

StylishMummy · 03/12/2018 21:23

Sorry it's absolutely hideous

Nic165 · 03/12/2018 21:24

You're right, not sure I'd be comfortable all night in it. Has anyone seen any nice long sleeve dresses suitable for work party? I'm dreadful at finding outfits!

I’d say it looks cheap.

Although I don’t think there’s anything wrong with the style for a work party

Luckingfovely · 03/12/2018 21:28

It's pretty trashy looking for a work party. Look at ASOS or John Lewis online - both have thousands of options.

If I was going to a work Christmas party this year I’d wear this www.warehouse.co.uk/gb/clothing/going-out-party-wear/multi-spot-mesh-midi-dress/034109.html?cgid=going-out-party-wear&position=2&dwvar_034109_color=76

Oooh that Warehouse dress is gorgeous (must not add to basket, must not add to basket!) Warehouse also have lots of lovely sequiny glitzy dresses as well if you wanted a bit of sparkle.

What about a jumpsuit. This one is nice and is on sale at new look www.newlook.com/uk/womens/clothing/playsuits-jumpsuits/burgundy-crepe-jersey-wrap-front-long-sleeve-jumpsuit/p/601656167?comp=PDP-Color-Swatch

missmouse101 · 03/12/2018 21:47

God, it's hideous! Sorry OP but it doesn't look nice for any do.

fringegrin45 · 03/12/2018 21:49

If you like that I'd just google "red Bardot dress" you can get something similar but less clingy eg this is nice
