Not a Color that Everyone CAN Wear

Color:Lemon Rind - Image 1 - Valencia Cape Back Chiffon Gown

Color:Lemon Rind - Image 2 - Valencia Cape Back Chiffon Gown

 

New, from Lauren Ralph Lauren in "lemon rind."

"Valencia Cape Back Chiffon Gown"

 

I think I don't have any more "gown" type functions remaining, but there is always the "opportunity" to chaperone a prom.  The last gown I wore was for a black tie wedding a few years ago.

 

Does anyone love this?

Just to me, those panels hanging down from the shoulders are very old fashioned. I don't like them but that's me.

Even DH agrees I do not look good in yellow although I like the color.

Re: Not a Color that Everyone CAN Wear

this may not be a color for everyone, but you could say that about every color. This is really beautiful and rich, I think the problem will be less the color than the design and it seems it takes a tall thin person.

Beautiful dress.  I think I could wear that color, but I never wear sleeveless and those things hanging off the back would be problematic.

First...the color... Pretty in a very "decided" way but I could not wear the color

Second...the style...I think it's beautiful and looks like it could be worn to host the Oscars! However, I agree, not seeing events requiring a gown like this.

@lolakimono Looks like sunshine to me.  If I were that tall and statuesque I would wear this too>

The dress is pretty, but I don't care for the color.
