I found the US Geneva dress in navy - unworn with tags!!! at a second hand store! it fits and will be oh so comfy for summer days when I just dont know what to put on! got it for $15....

its not the most figure flattering - its the crew neck - I prefer eve neck - but, at that price I couldn't leave with out it!its more of a comfy type dress imho

itll go good with my bronze birks for grocery runs, etc.

I'm with you - I have the teal version of that dress I grabbed for a similar price (US was doing a deal with shipping included) but I'm also at a loss on what to wear with it (the asymmetric hemline makes it a little awkward, since I prefer to cover my legs but don't know about wearing it with leggings/ trousers ). Is yours short sleeved or long sleeves?

I've also worn mine with Birkenstocks but will be following this thread with interest for further ideas

its short sleeved.

I have the long-sleeved version but so far it hasn't been warm enough here to wear it.

Suntiger, the "short sleeve" is barely that. Maybe one of our sewists will chime in to say how easy it would be to merely remove the (tiny) sleeve and re-hem? Looks like you could almost make it sleeveless just by hemming, with no cutting or picking out threads.

Score for $15, as the US Geneva is still available on their site for $120!

@April Mine is long sleeved too, but also V neck - yours too?

@lisaflex I've paired mine with a lightweight scarf around the neck to cover up the V neckline, but that might also come in handy for your crew neck short sleeved version (since you mentioned it being too high for you)? You could also create the same effect of 'changing' the neckline with a statement necklace instead.

Wonderful score. I have the short sleeved Geneva too, and it's a great dress.

What a find! I often like a long necklace with a crew neck.
