Re: Certainly don't mean to offend anyone

I took a chance and ordered it in black.  I am large busted so I am hoping that gives it some shape.  His tee shirt TSV a few weeks ago was wonderful, it fit me perfectly.

I think it would have looked better as a maxi dress.

The dress is out of my budget but I LOVE the Spring colors.  It is so difficult to find bright colors to wear here in the North.  I hope this is a sign that the neutrals are falling out of style for Spring and Summer.

I think this dress is inexpensive to manufacture. It's basically a long lace tee shirt. JMHO.

 

Notice how the lining lays. In areas where the dress is looser, like the waist and lower back, the lining bunches up. In tighter areas, like the bust and butt, it lies flat. This is less noticeable in the black and navy.

 

l don't think this dress will look good on curvy women.

It looks like the dresses from the late 1960's.

@handygal2I noticed that too that the lining wasn't laying properly. I suppose that means that first it's not attached anywhere and secondly that it's not fitted proportionately to the outer shell.

I do think that the dress looked significantly better with a belt

Thats exactly what I thought.....Was it washable? I don't see it looking nice afterward if it is.....
