Actually you won't believe it, but I was trying this on this morning before I even saw Angie's post! So I am encouraged to not toss this outfit this summer. I got it a few years back in France, but have almost not worn it in the passed two summers.
This suit has two main issues:
1) The kimono is very overpowering on me. I think it can still work, in a funky way, but requires some heel. Unfortunately...
2) I had the hem done for a flat shoe and now the seamstress won't undo it even though there is enough fabric because she says there will be a permanent fold showing (from the present hem).

Pic 2: same, closed

Pics 3-5: with a little heel.

Thank you for your honest opinion!
