DVF wrap dress too small?

ElleH

I need to wear the cami under it. I got it for only $55 at a preloved store & it looks new. Otherwise I would have tried on a bigger one.

I need to add that this style has drawstrings to ruch the neck open wide. I don't now if you can see that in the pics but that is why the opening is so wide at one part of the neck area. The overlap down below is enough though.

If you are able to close the neckline some more, I think this will look very good on you!

Ingunn I could try unruching the drawstring part. I have never seen this exact wrap dress in a store before. I wonder if it is a sample that never got made because the neck is odd.

Elle, there should be a style tag on one of the inner side seams -- a little white tag. Is that style the Gildred?

I have that style from several years ago in a lip print. I consider it strictly a date night dress because it is more revealing than most DVF wrap styles. On me, at least, the shoulders on the dress never looked quite right. I kept it because my husband likes it.

Alicat I don't see the style tag but it looks just like the one in your link. The model in that link is small busted. I am not. I've never worn it & it seems you have difficulty wearing it too. It's probably why mine ended up in a preloved shop seemingly unworn.
