no sorry

gemmiegoatlegs · 14/10/2008 19:21

hmm not sure it looks quite diaphenous and a bit well, cheap

TheFallenMadonna · 14/10/2008 19:21

Not much.

pickie · 14/10/2008 19:22

Yes but only if you are slim

PuppyMonkey · 14/10/2008 19:22

Yes, but would have to see what all those ruffles really look like... whether they hide or accentuate stuff iyswim..

slackrunner · 14/10/2008 19:22

Love the colour. Not sure about jersey as a fabric, it has the tendency to cling to parts of me that I'd rather not have highlighted.
You however may be an absolute stick and not have this problem

It looks shite on that stand but I bet it would lovely on and with the right shoes and accessories.

Anna8888 · 14/10/2008 19:23

It's not nice at all.

moondog · 14/10/2008 19:23

No
Jersey is vile and it looks cheap.

nkf · 14/10/2008 19:24

I like the colour and the neckline. I thik the slightly fussy hemline and the ruffly bits in the middle are a bit too much.

FeelingLucky · 14/10/2008 19:24

I love it!
Would look awful on skinny old me but I guess you're very voluptuous? Lovely colour too.
Great cocktail number. I'd accessorize with gold to bring out the blue.

BBBee · 14/10/2008 19:24

um, not really. it looks like it would look awful on, would highlight and cling to every flaw (unless you have none of course)

MovinMovinMovin · 14/10/2008 19:25

It looks really cheap, and I would be cery concerned about lumpy bum hips thighs, maybe you have to get the trinny and spanner support knickers too???
Not suggsteing you'd have bum issues in it, but I deffo would have, and my arse isn't mahoosive!

I love the colour and the neckline.

Jersey worries me though.

Am curvy but slim

Its got Big Brother contestant written all over it. Sorry- I wanted to like it and it is a nice colour but no.

MovinMovinMovin · 14/10/2008 19:30

It is actually a lovely design, although like I said, the bum area worries me, but I bet you'll find the fabric minging in rl, it's 100% polyester, and obviously they've kept the price down (ish) bu=y having nasty fabric, and also ime polyester really stinks very quickly, but I have to admit, I'm a bit of a sweaty slim bird!

I don't have a big bum!

I am looking for a similar dress but more of a galaxy dress BUT I want it in Blue.

Is proving very difficult

JackieNoHeadJustABloodyStump · 14/10/2008 19:37

Neck not low enough I suspect.

Ronaldinhio · 14/10/2008 19:37

no sadly - I have looked and looked and think perhaps the dress does not exists

I love the colour, have looked at the dress myself but have worried about the jersey.
