Well, it’s certainly “unique”, and you won’t get any arguments from us about the “pleated” part of the product description, either. We do, however, hope the model keeps her head facing in the direction it’s in at the moment, because we’re worried those pleats could take an eye out if she moves it.*

Oli describe this as a “statement dress”, and we’d concur with that, too, but what kind of statement is it making: a good one or a bad one? That’s up to you to decide, so leave a comment and tell us what you think of it! If you want to buy it, meanwhile, it’s by Forever Unique, and it’s £175 at Oli.

*Not really.

For some reason, we really want to touch this dress. (Note: TOUCH, not WEAR) It looks like it has a really interesting texture and, you know, texture is nice. Texture is good. And, of course, ruffles can be good, too. CAN be. Are they still good when there are so many of them that the dress looks like it could possibly be some kind of living organism, though, rather than a humble item of clothing?

We’ll leave that up to you to decide. Those of you who decide that yes, this dress is a very good thing indeed, can buy it at Topshop, where it’s £140.

Just in case any of you were thinking – or perhaps hoping – that the “trend” for totally sheer items of clothing had finally died, and that designers had stopped trying to charge us hundreds of pounds for clothes that barely even exist, we present evidence to the contrary, courtesy of Valentino. Well, at least the skirt could come in handy as a slip, albeit a pretty expensive one. As for the shress, well, we can only hope no-one would actually try to wear it like that, hmm?

We must admit, we’re really curious to know who’s actually BUYING sheer clothes in a big enough quantity to justify the continued production of them by so many designers. Surely Lady Gaga can’t be keeping them ALL afloat?
