First, it's more elegant

Puddinandpie · 12/03/2023 14:09

Defo,defo, defo the first dress it oozes class and is a fab shape!

Rauha · 12/03/2023 14:14

First one, absolutely.

Fraaahnces · 12/03/2023 14:19

First one will be ratshit quality. Witchery is at least well-made, but it’s not very exciting.

Ihateboris · 12/03/2023 14:28

Definitely option 1..beautiful colour. On a separate point, why the hell do models pose in a way you can't properly see the style (see option 2)😱

IAteAllTheTomatoes · 12/03/2023 14:46

100% the first one but only if you are tall

LlynTegid · 12/03/2023 15:27

I prefer the second one. Don't like the neckline of the first.

Deathraystare · 12/03/2023 15:34

Depends if you prefer light or dark blue I guess. Both very similar. If you suit a high neck and are slim enough to carry that style off. I most certainly would not as overweight, not exactly swan necked!

@Ihateboris omg don't get me started on the way model's stand now, it boils my blood!! On asos they stand like contortionist 😤

@Ihateboris my eye is twitching just looking at that pic, who thinks of these poses, WHO????😵‍💫

stayathomer · 13/03/2023 07:02

I’m in absolute love with the first one but I think the second one might be more normal and so more forgiving (only saying this because I have a belly lumps and bumps lol!!) God number 1 though… so beautiful!!!

StarlightLady · 13/03/2023 07:05

I prefer the cut of the first one, providing you are not going to eat spaghetti when wearing it. Personally though, l would look for something with a lower neck.

Hop27 · 13/03/2023 20:48

First one it is! Any thoughts on shoes?

@Hop27 I'd defo go for mules, pointy closed toe but backless mules, light in colour cream or gold tone, possibly could get away with black and the bag would need to match!
Something like these

Definitely the second dress. Nicer colour and more stylish.

mathanxiety · 14/03/2023 02:30

Doh! Too late...

Pammy39 · 14/03/2023 11:49

I love the first one:-)

Hop27 · 14/03/2023 23:43
