Just that really, what do you think? Obviously looks much better on a model in the picture. Thank you!

I was actually joking with that dress! 😂
I seriously can't imagine anyone wearing it...

How about this dress? Pure silk, my colours and I think this will be great for summer and won't swamp me. Veronica Damiani, currently sells on Yoox

That's lovely.
Personally I avoid silk because it stains so easily, one spillage and it's over baby.
But a very lovely dress. I maintain that the first one is completely fine given your description of yourself OP.

Silk dress looks lovely. Will it sit on your shoulders ok? When I was petite I had to be careful with wide straps as they would fall off. Like both dresses. Think I like second one a little bit more.

There's something about the top of the dress that reminds me of a knicker gusset.
The one with the rosette makes the model look like she's won best in show.

The straps are adjustable! I am just a bit concerned about how low-cut it is on the front. I don't have much of a cleavage, wonder if I can wear some sort of camisole underneath but unsure whether this will spoil the look

Also just found this, which is perfect, but 100% polyester, which will probably mean I will sweat through it at the height of summer

@Howmanyroses thats fab OP, very appropriate

Goddessonahighway · 16/01/2024 14:21

Like the third one too! It's nice and loose though so might not be too sweaty 😁

This is gorgeous and I'm sure you'll be fine in the heat despite it being polyester, as it's quite floaty!

I love the silk one.

Me too, but I can't find it for sale online 😟
