Is this the worst dress ever?

I mean, I like the neckline, and would accept the flimsy cheap fabric (normal for now).
But who on earth looked at it and thought ' I know what that needs ...'

Teenage me would beg for that dress.
I love it.

If it was shorter say just above or just on the knee wasn’t quite so droopy on the neck had more shape to it and didn’t have that hideous large bows it’d be just about okay.

I'm not keen on it, but see far worse dresses recommended on here weekly for weddings and events.

Guavafish1 · 06/09/2024 04:40

You’ll be wearing soon

OneBadKitty · 06/09/2024 07:11

It's Urban Outfitters- their demographic is grungey teenagers and students.

I like it. I'm neither of those

I have two friends who adore Damson Madder clothes - both in their late fifties …

Pickwickbasketcase · 06/09/2024 07:41

It’s fine, I used to wear similar but sans massive bows.

Gettingbysomehow · 06/09/2024 08:31

This dress is revolting, little house on the prairie meets Halloween.

Sausagenbacon · 06/09/2024 08:33

Funnily enough, I love the assos dress.
If I wasn't in my 60s and fat, I'd wear it like a shot.
Maybe my reaction to the bow dress is because I'm sick of the amish look, and I hate the way that clothes are styled so cheaply now (no cuffs or waist, just elastic)

I don’t like the ASOS dress but I don’t mind the wolf and badger one at all! The purple looks slightly strange due to the fact it’s not on a model but flicking through the pictures the green version looks great on the model.

I don’t like the OG dress, although it looks significantly better in green (someone else posted another version of it). I think the bows just look a bit sad tbh.

I've no idea what's wrong with the Wolf and Badger dress.

What's wrong with that dress?

Rebootnecessary · 06/09/2024 08:56

I'm 57 and really like Damson Madder and while I probably wouldn't wear this dress I love the blue and green versions.

newrubylane · 06/09/2024 08:59

StormingNorman · 05/09/2024 16:33

It could do with a few more bows

Forager5 · 06/09/2024 09:02

Don’t like that at all and cannot imagine anybody wearing it.

Catafult · 06/09/2024 09:50

I think it’s nice 🤷‍♀️

GoodieMcTwoshoes · 06/09/2024 11:14

It's probably trendy- bows have been 'in' for quite a while.

So a completely different dress then 😁.
My 1st thought was that it was a photo of the back of the dress that was meant to be artfully laced up and a five year old did it it was done in a rush

ScottBakula · 06/09/2024 14:06

@Awwlookatmybabyspider I think your baby spider has all grown up and found a new home 😆🕷

Mercurial123 · 06/09/2024 14:32

I've changed my mind it's pretty ugly

heldinadream · 05/09/2024 15:12

It's a bit like they've flung a massive black dead spider at it. 😳

I thought that too.

But otherwise, yeah, no worse than so many things 'recommended' on here.
