Ah, I see the Stephen Doherty dress now on the US site. It is a gorgeous print and reads a bid dressy, although I suppose it could go anywhere. I bet it would be really great for someone with a straighter body type (ie not big boobs, LOL). With that high neck and voluminous cut, I’m just not sure about it on me. I feel like toned arms would be doing a lot of the work in making that dress sing, and unfortunately that is not something Pilates has done for me yet.

I find my favorite dresses second hand. They seen to be longer and more modest. So many summer dresses have deep V necklines or narrow straps.

oh Janet, sorry to hear that! it's a beautiful piece but I guess you are right about the arms - to my eyes your arms are perfectly toned but it's also a question of feeling comfortable.

@Joy, i think you are very skilled in getting the right preloved dresses. I bought 2 preloved dresses and both of them are wrong in so many ways - thankfully I managed to resell them quickly but what a pain!
