Now you’ve all mentioned the sandals…they are miles too big for the model, surely?!!?

WaltzingBetty · 08/07/2021 18:24

Can you post a pic in it OP. I definitely think it has boho potential

Palavah · 08/07/2021 18:24

But those sandals are totally inoffensive?

Ha guilty!

Op there was a Marks and Sparks pink dress that was awful. So lots of us went to Marks and tried it on and took photos in the changing room of us in it, couple of years ago now,

The sandals are fine. Confused

Yellowcrockpot · 08/07/2021 18:27

I actually love it, op!

Looks abit vintage, like something Margo from the good life would wear!

Style it vintage and away you go!

When the model looks like upsy daisy in in then there's not a lot of hope for anyone else.

I do quite like the pattern but it needs structure.

CupOfTPlease · 08/07/2021 18:31

Oh gosh, no.

myfuckingfreezer · 08/07/2021 18:32

I think if you're a young waif you might be able to get away with it. But it is really bloody awful and will make most people look very grumpy unfortunately

Audo · 08/07/2021 18:33

The dress does not flatter the presumably beautiful model.

Diverseopinions · 08/07/2021 18:34

I like it - the colours on black, but it's casual. It's easy to wear. I don't think it would take up very well, so good for medium height, but not so good if your were shorter.

Feelingoktoday · 08/07/2021 18:35

The first photo is awful but the others I could see myself walking back from the beach in it, flip flops and beach bag.

EmpressSuiko · 08/07/2021 18:37

Oh gosh no!

Hadenoughofthisbullshit · 08/07/2021 18:41

I think it would be a lot nicer if it was knee length, but the current style is big baggy dresses, so that’s what it is. If you like it, wear it with pride.

Wexone · 08/07/2021 18:52

I have this on a few bloggers and it looks fab on them, but i would worry about the material and the way it hags, it can be like maternity dress on some, might need a belt

SummerHouse · 08/07/2021 18:56

So, picture one of the Next model = wtf are they THINKING!!!???

All the other pictures = I flipping love it.

I bet you look fab op.

2andahalfpints · 08/07/2021 19:04

I think it might look better on a curvier figure, definitely needs boots and a wide belt.

It's not 'me' but I think the right person could pull it off

newnortherner111 · 08/07/2021 19:12

You may be able to look stylish in it but you would be one of a very few women who did.

catfunk · 08/07/2021 19:19

Love the shape but not that print x

YellowandGreenToBeSeen · 08/07/2021 19:20

It’s AWFUL Shock

Tinysalmonswimminginastream · 08/07/2021 19:28

What's wrong with it? I thought that style of dress was absolutely everywhere at the moment, flowery midi/Maxi dress with trainers? The only thing I don't really like is the asymmetric diagonal bit on the skirt.

And those sandals? They are just bog standard black sandals, look a bit like the Saltwater sandals, a but dull but not really offensive?

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 08/07/2021 19:59

Sorry, but I think it's really horrible.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 08/07/2021 20:00

The sandals look about 2 sizes too big.
