Isaac Color Blocked Dress On Now Question?

A395274 I am not sure the Isaac Dress hits the mark, but rather misses the mark where the color block falls horozontally across the hips which can be the largest part of a woman's body. Think it does not do justice to Jane nor the model Rebecca What do you think?

Oops sorry the Jane presentation as shown on the TV did not appear .

I think Jane looks lovely in this pink dress. I am not a fan of the color blue anywhere execpt blue jeans!

@tobes I agree the dress is not figure flattering at all where the color block hits on the body.

It's an attractive dress, but Jane should have worn one of the darker colors which would have hidden her problems areas OR perhaps the Isaac dress simply didn't fit her well. IDK.

I'd love it in a silk . . . without a polyester lining!

I liked the dress and thought about ordering the blue. But then thought-- I have no where to wear this any time soon. I bought a couple other casual dresses for spring and summer. And I agree this one could be worn casually, but my lifesyle right now is even a step below casual. lol Is that possible? haha. I would not wear this arounfd the house even on a hot day. It definitely looks like it would need pressed.

But I know what you mean about the placement of the stripes. I thought Jane looked good, but could have gone up a size. It was a little bunchy in the middle. It's one of those dresses that you are better off getting a larger sze and then have a tailor take it in.

I actually thought it was cute on Rebecca. Not so much on Jane

Why would you design something that has a big bright wide stripe on the widest part of a woman’s body? Thought this was unflattering. IMO.

I would never buy anything with big horizontal stripes. And I don't even need to see the presentation or product page to know that. Not happening.

I bought some striped marked down tees from work just to roll with Shadow, our 2 yr. old American Bulldog. I don't EVER wear horizontal stripes in public!!!!

I loved the dress but it looked terrible on Jane. It was about two sizes too small for her and showed every bulge on her body. Rebecca was wearing a size that fit her well and I think it looked very nice on her.

I did like the colors of the dress and the sheen to the fabric , however not much open in my state so no where to go . As far as the color block would have liked less wide panels of color block further down on the dress near the hemline. Reminds me of a Boden style dress . I would consider buying the dress , but would have to try it on first,

I think people worry too much sometimes about clothing. I don't think others often look beyond "that dress is pretty" and that's about all the thought they give.

If you love the dress and think it is pretty and it doesn't don't look just horrible for some reason, don't pick it to pieces!

Wear it and enjoy it and think about how you see others! Don't you see "them" and not every detail about their clothes?

Enjoy, be happy and wear things you think are pretty!

I've seen Jane in lots of cute dresses but this was not one of them.

The dress is for a thin gal.

@IamDoodles

I think it's about their shapes. Although she's a big girl Rebecca has narrow hips. Jane is a pear-shape. If you already have hips I think the style exacerbates them

I think a lot of the world has gotten over the idea that if you have big hips that you must try to hide them and play like you don't have big hips, being ashamed of yourself.

She has big hips. OK. So what? I just don't see anything that awful and it was a pretty, bright colored dress. Why shouldn't she wear it? Happily!

I just feel like people should lighten up on body shaming. Few of us are perfect, and if not, we shouldn't suffer for it or have to wear sacks in dark colors. I've never had big hips, but some days I'd trade them for other problems. . .

Oh get over yourself and off the soapbox! That was not a judgment but simply a statement. The style of the dress accentuates hips. Period
