Would need to see it in the flesh so to speak. Does it not reveal a lot of norkage?

DrNortherner · 21/10/2008 14:18

Not for my office no. It's gross. imo.

llareggub · 21/10/2008 14:18

Blimey.

It is rather sheer isn't it? Would you feel comfortable with that much revealed?

Personally I think it is a bit Maggie Gyllenhall in Secretary.

llareggub · 21/10/2008 14:18

That's a no from me, by the way.

MorticiaAnnSpookington · 21/10/2008 14:20

urgh !

NoblesseOblige · 21/10/2008 14:21

um...i like it, but it would really depend on what sort of office you work in...

ie big city corporate stylish office - ok.

smalltown stix office - nah.

GrabShellDude · 21/10/2008 14:22

No not for the office. tbh if I saw someone in the office wearing that I would think "airhead"

Oh dear - no. If it was less see-through and less tight, then maybe.

beeny · 21/10/2008 14:57

do you work in a brothel?

No.

jumpingbeans · 21/10/2008 15:01

Well, if you were a receptionist at an escort agengy it would be just fine, complete with red shoes

ruddynoraaaaaaggggggghhhhh · 21/10/2008 15:01

red shoes?!

i'm afraid it looks like something from a music video where britney or whoever is dressed as a norty secretary. even maggie wouldn't have worn this.

flowerybeanbag · 21/10/2008 15:03

What everyone else said. No. No no no no no.

If you like the overall look, try a nice black pencil skirt and a nice cream or white blouse, without slits/see through bits/v low necklines.

kerryk · 21/10/2008 15:06

i find it slightly odd that they sell it in a size 16

no-one over a size 10 could pull that off.

gingertabby · 21/10/2008 15:31

fair enough if you don't like it, but why on earth you you think anyone would hate me for wearing it?
