this dress its too much money on the one hand i'm not sure i could bring myself to spend that on a dress, on the other i have already removed my credit card from my purse. My Dh would divorce me without a shadow of a doubt. I bet its horrid on.

It looks like someones puked on a dishcloth then wrapped it round them selves, it makes the model look super wide too.

I think you would have to have olive skin and long bouncy hair and be about a size 6 to carry it off.

wolfnipplechips · 21/04/2010 21:16

thats the kind of thing i'm after

It's a bit Bet Gilroy if you ask me.

Just trying to help .........

Even the model looks terrible in it. And the pattern doesn't match down the seam at the back. Expensive dresses should have been stitched properly!

HTH

SixtyFootDoll · 21/04/2010 21:19

It is a lovley dress but I would nevr be able to afford it.
If you can then go for it.
My dresses are normaly about a tenth of that price!

wolfnipplechips · 21/04/2010 21:20

euch - hideous dress, which is not like DVF at all! Steer clear - It is definitely a Bet Lynch (she will always be Lynch to me!) frock and so not worth the money.

Do NOT buy it.

If you were my friend and you bought it, I would not go out with you wearing it.

TrowelAndError · 21/04/2010 21:22

It's hideous.

It is a bit Chezza. And you know her dresses are mostly horrid, it's just we're all distracted by her perrrrrrity face and bouncy hair.

wolfnipplechips · 21/04/2010 21:27

herjezz but jungle/african patterns are the new thang, you know.

herjazz · 21/04/2010 21:32

but you could really wear a curtain cord round yr forehead with this one

HellBent · 21/04/2010 21:32

herjazz how many times did you have to sing that in your head before you wrote it!?

I wrote 'do do do do can't touch this' on another thread about shit-catcher trousers (not the retail name as I understand it!) and the tune was in my head all day!

HellBent · 21/04/2010 21:33

Dress is awful too, missed that bit sorry!

thelunar66 · 21/04/2010 21:33

Noooo - its Liz McDonald. Belongs behind a bar in a back street pub, worn by a bleached blonde with botox.

And that is a lot of Bees.

EricPicklesFatNeck · 21/04/2010 21:33

herjazz - you have a gift!

herjazz · 21/04/2010 21:34

xpost - not the new dress you just bought

herjazz · 21/04/2010 21:35

i cheated and googled the lyric
always thought it was wimboway meself

BelleDameSansMerci · 21/04/2010 21:36

If you want a DVF dress (and I certainly do) wouldn't it make more sense to buy a classic that you can wear for more than one season?

I think this will date quickly and it's unlikely to become classic/vintage and sought after because it's vile.

Really, it's bad
