    Honestly, I like it ? my only concern would be whether the bodice sits right on. I don't think it is shown to it's best potential on the model. Have you tried it?

    Not my kind of style but i think it nice for those who want that style, however the bodice almost looks to small. Not good at explaining what i mean and it might just be the photo but the top doesnt look quite right. Love the skirt part at the bottom tho.

    I think it may just be the photo or it doesnt fit the model properly. Im sure it would look different if you tried it on.

    I like it a lot. I think the whole point of the design is for the bodice to be a bit smaller and sit higher. I would go try it on if you haven't already x

    I think its stunning, however the length of the bodice and that horizontal line across could be very unflattering on some figures methinks. Looking forward to see a flash IRL!

    I agree, I think you NEED to try it on as it a very un usual dress- do you mind me asking which designer it is?

    The ladies in the shop told me that my dress has a very short bodice, as I've looked at it in pictures I guess it does but when it was on I couldn't tell.

    I love the skirt - it's similar to mine (floaty, floor skimming and not satin!) below.


    I agree with the others, the bodice seems to sit too low on the chest - compare with the pic of mine, above. It seems a lot longer. I'd try it - it probably suits certain body shapes. Wouldn't suit me since I'm very long in the body and short in the leg!

    This dress is amazing! I love big dresses.

    The sweetheart neckline is gorgeous!

    I read something about wearing big dresses though, maybe it will help you. There's some other dress pictures on there that you can have a look at!

    Lovely dress, the top looks like it may be like a basque design with cups (if you know what I mean) that would explain why it sits so low.
