I don’t really understand it, tbh

Ebonyhorse · 09/08/2022 22:27

Hideous.

Greycatclub · 09/08/2022 22:33

The colour on you is lovely but the cut isn’t very flattering

Thefruitbatdancer · 09/08/2022 22:34

wide legged jumpsuit from Cos

WhileMyGuitarGentlyWeeps · 09/08/2022 22:35

It's absolutely hideous. (Sorry.) Blush

MrsMcisaCt · 09/08/2022 22:40

I don't like it at all. I don't like the colour or style.

Verite1 · 09/08/2022 22:42

I’m afraid i don’t like it at all

NoWeaponsOnTheTable · 09/08/2022 22:44

It looks too big for you.

MissStress · 09/08/2022 22:45

Agree you have an absolutely fabulous figure but the outfit can be improved - too much material across the board.

LemonadeSunshine · 09/08/2022 22:51

It's a lovely colour, but looks as though it's clinging to you from the hips down rather than flaring out, which then has the effect of making your middle section look the widest part rather than the long layers. Do you have a slip you could try under the skirt part? Kind of old fashioned but effective! M&S 'cool something' ones are my go to for clinging clothes.

bloodyunicorns · 09/08/2022 23:02

The top is gaping, it's too frilly and fussy, like an 80s ra-ra skirt. You have a great figure and could find something much more flattering!

Bearsan · 10/08/2022 00:04

Nothing positive to say, sorry. It's a terrible fit, colour, pattern and the length of both sections is all wrong. It does nothing for you at all.

Perime · 10/08/2022 00:11

It's not you it's the dress.

Starbucksbasic123 · 10/08/2022 00:20

I think it you could get it taken in then paired with nude heels and a bag it could work. Also hair up

GreenClock · 10/08/2022 00:30

It’s a bit of a fussy mess. Your figure is great, it’s probably rare that you don’t look fab! But you’ve managed it. Sorry.

Celia24 · 10/08/2022 00:35

Sorry OP don't like it at all. I can see a nice figure under there and this does nothing for it!

milkyaqua · 10/08/2022 00:40

I find it hard to imagine anyone looking nice in that dress. It's cut all wrong. The sleeves are the wrong length for it. It starts to flare too low at the waist. The chandelier effect of the layers is misjudged. Just no.

Nancydrawn · 10/08/2022 01:00

As others have said, it's not you, it's the dress. The first layer on the skirt is cut entirely wrong. If that layer were removed, it might be okay, but it cuts the wearer in bad ways--makes it look like an odd skirted bathing suit with a layered skirt underneath.

Happymum12345 · 10/08/2022 01:10

I can’t imagine it suiting anyone -so it’s not personal.

icecoffeeisland · 10/08/2022 01:45

The fit is extremely unflattering. It would look nice if it had a higher neckline, a higher waistline and if it lost the first frilly layer over the hips.

CoconutAmericano · 10/08/2022 08:37

@Thefruitbatdancer I have never had so many compliments as when I wore this jumpsuit!

TheOGCCL · 10/08/2022 08:39

I’m not a fan either - it looks like a Frankenstein dress, cut and shut from various bits of fabric. In particular the peplum bit looks wrong. If there was a way to get rid of that it might look better. The colour is lovely but the pattern and the complicated design are too much together.

@CoconutAmericano it's lovely isn't it? Unfortunately I'm not tall and leggy so I wistfully view from afar!

CoconutAmericano · 10/08/2022 19:59

@Thefruitbatdancer i liked it so much i bought it in the navy too 🙈

tillyandmilly · 10/08/2022 20:01

I think the dress is lovely! Just need to pair it with different shoes - very feminine and the colour is pretty!
