On paper – and, indeed, at first glance – this dress probably seems too frou-frou for words.
We reckon that if you keep the accessories nice and simple, though, you’ll be able to pull it off nicely – and there’s something appealing about the thought of being able to swish around like a princess in that skirt, no?
The combination of ruffles and corsage makes this a super-feminine (too much so for some of you, we’ll bet) dress, but the frills are offset by the plain top, and therefore win Fashion Police approval.
It’s £45 at New Look.
I love the retro feel of this dress, like it should be paired with pearls and a cardigan.
I love this dress! I would wear it to a masked event
I’d want to see what it looks like on. “Ruffle tiered mesh” – sounds dangerously close to ‘sheer’ territory…
Er, no. Apart from the fact that it screams ‘widow’, it has got an enormous bum without anyone wearing it.
HATES IT!
Ya know, FP, I agree.
I immediately saw it with a red satin sash tossed backwards at the neckline, classic Hollywood style, and gave this a yes vote.
