Boy oh boy, do I have questions about this dress! It’s priced at a pretty steep $245, and I just can’t decide if it’s divoon or dastardly. Care to throw in your 2 cents? While on the one hand, it is crafted in sumptuous silk, on the other, it is almost overly defined in the bust region, at least for me.
If you take a look closely at the item below, are you instantly repelled/attracted, or do you think this one will grow on you? Furthermore, should you drop almost $250 for a dress that you may never really like? Tell me if you’d buy this one, please. Advice is needed.

Yeah…I’m not feeling this dress. I think the colors are gorgeous, but its too defined in the bust area and I just think it would make me appear larger than normal….I’m not loving this one..
I’m not sure either. I kind of like the top (vaVOOM!), but the hemline…no.
There are soooo many better maxi dresses out there. This one just doesn’t flatter. The bust is too emphasized, and the shape of the skirt creates a feeling of really huge hips, even if they’re not. Kind of mimics harem pants in shape. Also, with the hem higher than a traditional maxi, it widens the hips even more.
I love the colors, but this one would not work for a woman with a large bust and frankly it is really over priced for what it is; a maxi dress.
I like the dress, however, it’s WAY OVER PRICED!!! When I 1st saw this dress, I decided to go to the designers website, and I was THRILLED @ the clothes that I saw, however, the prices were ABSOLUTELY RIDICLOUS!!! I saw a dress on there that I really wanted but it cost $415.00!!!! Unless you are a single and making 6 figures, you’d have to not pay a bill to purchase one of those dresses. Like I said, beautiful clothes, but OVERPRICED!!!!!
