Is this dress too much?

[newshoooooes]

I'm going to a 40th birthday next weekend and don't really want to buy anything new. I bought this dress for an Xmas night a couple
of years ago. Is it too much for a birthday party, especially of someone I don't really know? Party is in a really nice hotel.

Thanks!

Lovely dress and a great colour ❤️

It's not quite as dark as it looks. This is it. Although that then looks slightly brighter!

It's a lovely dress and you wear it well. But...heels together/toes out if anything. Toes together/heels out makes you look insecure. Small point but makes a difference. Stand tall and know how fabulous you look: attitude and posture can make an outfit and you're already 90% there with a lovely dress and good figure.

Enjoy the party!

It's a classic,elegant dress. Beautiful, and not 'too much' at all. Enjoy!

It's a fab dress and perfect for a 40th in a posh hotel.

Lovely !

Perfect

Lovely dress and gorgeous figure

I’m afraid we have a rather boring consensus. It’s a very nice dress, and you have a fantastic figure, OP.

Enjoy the party, you will look great!

Definately wear it.

Even if the celebrant is someone you don't really know, your dress is perfect for a birthday party in a nice hotel.

Yes.perfect for you, lovely, and classy.

Just right for such an occasion. It looks better on you than it does on the model. Maybe team with some bold beads?

I’m sure you don’t need “Industrial strength pants” either. Just go for best knickers!

Thank you all! So kind, and made me feel so much better.

@Ladybirdman I will try and remember that

All gorgeous.

Lovely dress and it suits you. I love it when people look great in their clothes.

I think it looks better on you than it does on the model.

You know I thought it looked better on the op than the model too but I didn't say as I didn't want to sound too gushing, but it really does, it's fab op.

You suit it better than the model. It looks great 🙂

Hi all, having second thoughts a out my dress and wondered if should wear this one instead??

It's slightly more comfortable, but which is nicer?

I like the second one more, where is it from?

Love the sleeves

I love green so I liked the first dress, but I think the second one is even better! Looks very classy and elegant.

And I think it’s also green? And possibly velvet? 🥰

Thanks. It's from Pretty Kitty, and yes, it's green and velvety

I prefer the second, it's gorgeous. You look nice in both but the second edges it.
