    For a hen party, I think the dress is great. In other situations, probably not. Definitely different shoes, those are way too clunky for that dress. A thin, strappy sandal (flat or heel) would look better.

    You look beautiful! I think a strappy sandal with a thin heal would look much better though. I like the idea of going with a neutral color of shoe but I would do silver or champaign.

    I can't believe people are saying no to this outfit...
    I think it is beautiful and PERFECT for a hen do!
    Stick on a bit of fake tan and it will look even more lush

    Might look better with different shoes. The ones you have on are a bit chunky for the style of this dress. Otherwise not a big fan of the dress either, but that 's just me.

    I love the dress, and you say it's currently in style in the UK. I agree with many others; the shoes aren't the right ones! Something more delicate, strappy, sparkly! Have a great time!

    I would stay away from strapless, as you never want to feel like you're about to go topless by accident - especially when you're supposed to be having fun!

    There's nothing wrong with a perfectly good wardrobe malfunction;)

    I love they style and think it really suits you, but I think the colour isn't the best! it's up to how you feel in it though not what other people think!! :)

    problem i have with shoes is im already tall and if i go for a lower heel the dress is on floor and if i go for a thinner shoes ie not a wedge i cant walk in them lol i find with platforms i need a wedge thats why i went for nude so they wouldnt stand out haha!





    Wish we were closer! I have some beautiful wedge sandals. Very strappy and delicate in a matte gold color. Keep looking, they are out there. I found mine at Payless so, they were a bargain also. I don't know if they have Payless ShoeSource in the U.K.?

    I think it does look too young.
    The colour and that it looks like it could be worn to prom just make it well... Look like a teenagers dress.

    Something more sexy and mature would look better.

    In the picture the dress is all we are looking at, but I think that once your hair is done, full makeup it will look completely different. I think you can pull it off for sure. However I agree with different shoes completely. Just something strappy and delicate.
    If you do decide to get a different dress, the style in your profile pics look great, especially the third one in (white and pink). It is really flattering, maybe go for something similar. Either way I think you'll look great! :)

    Sorry hunni but if you want honest opinions I have to say that unfortunately I don't think this dress is the one for you :-(

    You have a lovely figure but the colour and style of the dress just isn't right and like others have said the shoes don't quite go with it. I just think the length at the back is a little bit TOO long compared to the front and another colour would suit you better.

    I am in the UK also and have a dress in a similar sort of style which I bought from Oasis. It is not quite so long at the back, has a nice waist belt with it and it is not strapless. I don't know if you're still shopping around but they had a few different colours in there and the fit is very flattering too.

    I hope I don't offend with my comments. I'm sure the perfect hen dress is out there for you :)

    It's a cute dress, but it does look like a prom dress. I'd go with something that is a little longer in the front, a floor-length gown would be really nice. If you do want to stick with that dress, I'd suggest different shoes. Silver!

    I think with almost flat shoes and a little cardigan/shrug it would be beautiful! Id probably put black with it

    Hi, I would like to say first of all I am am a fellow UK member :smile: I have to say I agree with the majority I like the dress and I know dipped dresses are really current but I am also not sure about the colour and the heels you are wearing in the picture are very bulky for that dress, I had a little look through your photo's (you look amazing by the way) and all the dresses that you are wearing really show off your amazing figure I am not sure that this one does quite as well. If you were going to wear it I would definatley change the shoes but at the end of the day it is how you feel in an outfit thats important :flowerforyou:
