I'm no expert but would think the ruffles would draw attention to the tummy area.
Lovely dress though.

LynetteScavo · 29/09/2008 20:01

Only Kate Moss would look great in that dress.

SexyMilf · 29/09/2008 20:02

I vote yes

Beetroot · 29/09/2008 20:02

you will look like an apple - soprry no!

McDreamy · 29/09/2008 20:03

it's a nay here

luckylady74 · 29/09/2008 20:03

It's a beautiful dress. I would have said the ruffles would make boobs look bigger and the skirt would do the same to hips, but I'm a pear so what do I know!

Tutter · 29/09/2008 20:05

luckylady that's the very point

apples try to even out their shape by drawing attention to shoulders/hips

what size are you

brimfull · 29/09/2008 20:21

I think 14 or below could carry that dress off as you're not that much of an apple at that size
