				<description>&#060;p&#062;Thank you, AJ and Style Fan! I've tried a couple of &#060;a rel=&#034;nofollow&#034; href=&#034;http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/asymetrical-neckline-again-yes-or-no&#034;&#062;other options&#060;/a&#062; to see if it works. My feeling is that the neckline is borderline too revealing, depending on the occation. For a casual or dressy option I find it ok, but not so much for a professional look.
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Great dress.&#038;nbsp; I prefer a neckline like this to stand alone.&#038;nbsp; It does look like it might be a bit revealing though.&#060;br /&#062;I had a dress with a asymmetrical neckline and I didn't wear anything underneath.&#038;nbsp; I did wear a cardigan with it.
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Maybe a layer sans collar and buttons. &#038;nbsp;I also really like the idea of a topper instead of an under layer.&#060;/p&#062;
&#060;p&#062;Fab dress!
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Thank you all! I agree with your comments and l'll try some other combos. If none works, at least I've tested it. That's how we learn, right?  <span aria-hidden="true" class="emoticon emoticon-smile icon-emoticon-smile "></span>

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I'd like to see a non button blouse.  To me it looks like to much for the eye.

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I don't think this combination works. I like the dress and the shirt, but separately.&#060;br /&#062;
Do you perhaps have a top without buttons? I think something unadorned and more minimalistic could work. You could try square or straight neckline, or a boat neck top.
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I agree with Penny, perhaps a cardigan or jacket would let that neckline shine; that neckline is fab. I think a plain base layer with a crew neck would look better if you want a layer underneath the dress; the collar and buttons are a bit busy.&#038;nbsp; The dress itself fits you well and looks amazing on you!
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;It isn't the neckline as much as the button that compete. I would go for a lower contrast top underneath - maybe a crewneck long-sleeved t-shirt in a darker colour. I also agree that the neckline might best be highlighted by wearing a topper over it instead of a shirt underneath it. Then again, I have a bit of a poison eye for wearing dresses as jumpers/pinafores, so I might be biased.
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Love the dress - I have a number of work dresses with asymmetric necklines, and I find they look best unadorned (e.g., without a necklace, but I think the same applies to tops underneath).  Also, the dress has a streamlined, modern feel, which may look better on its own.  Could you add a blazer or cardigan to add warmth without competing with the neckline?
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;I really like the asymetrical neckline of the black dress,but find it difficult to style with a layered top. What do you think of this blouse under the dress? Is it too much going on?
