Ooo, glad people like it! I think it works better for me than the purple Bailey -- I thought the purple fit better than the orange (which felt a little large on me) but the purple was still tighter than I would like. The CCV one is less clingy and a bit shorter than the Bailey version -- which works out well for me too!
Ana - I haven't worn the purple Bailey 44 one yet, so I can still return it. Was waiting for this one to come in to compare.
Celia - I hear you about the color. I like the purple color too but I think that dress was on the tight side.
Helen, lyn, Ioana, scarlet, modgrl, Khris, Lisa, Sona, Kappy - thank you!
rae - you are totally spot on about it being two different dresses. This one is still body con, but less so than the other -- and I probably will get more wear out of this!
Una - which one did you keep? I can't remember!
Jayne - yes, it is super comfy.
Angie -- Ooo, a killer rating -- will keep!
Teri -- you totally should!
Suz - yes, I can still return the other one. And I think your theory about fit makes a lot of sense!
Natalie - Hm, I am imaging-software impaired right now. If I get a chance I'll try to figure something out -- that would be useful for other future posts!
Shu -- Cool, can't wait to see pics.
lynn - And I'd love to see yours in the shorter length!
