Try it on. Otherwise it'll be the dress that got away.

This is nice and more my budget. I BET it would gape unflatteringly around the chest though.

Its lovely isn't it. I'll try it on when I'm near a branch but I basically never manage a wrap top so I'm not hopefully.

It’s lovely. Maybe a little tape to keep it in place?

I LOVE that colour :heat: It's definitely one to try on. Do you have an occasion in mind?

That green is gorgeous. I love a green dress and am allured to this one which would look nothing like it does on the model..

And I love these too but they are far too expensive and I'm not sure where I would ever wear them.

I read that as 'shit back dress'. The shoes are glorious. :hbeat:

On a cost per wear basis my Mint Velvet footwear are my best buys ever. Those shoes don't look like they'll date either.

They're lovely shoes! The dress is pretty but only the sort of thing a 6ft model could pull off I reckon.

Emma- the green dress would be for some christmas social events I guess.

Try it on Smal!

Luna, for a second I thought that was the dress I’d been covering in the window of &Other Stories, but the one I like is a bit longer with no split back :elderly:

:ttth: to wearing it with thigh length boots though!

I don’t like that leg stance.

That model looks as if she's just dismounted a horse. :mog:

Gorgeous greens.

I like that one too Emma, and by fortunate co-incidence I have the same crooked shoulder!

She does look like she has a broom parked somewhere uncomfortable. It's hard to tell how the dress sits with that pose.

Right, am I too old for this, with jeans and a blazer or something (in the evening). The sequins are matte, not shiny, if that helps. I know they look shiny. It’s from Oasis which is why I think I’m too old :)).

I like it. It's not full on mermaid and is quite sedate coloured.
