I love Mike and Chris and I think this dress could be really cute year round, but is it worth $225? The dress sold out in its first run so I'm hesitant to wait until an M&C sample sale or any sale for that matter.
While I'm not *sure* about it, I think it would be really hard to pull off, especially without a body like the model's. I, for example, would probably look pregnant because I'm not totally flat like the model is. That said, I would have to try it on to be sure... but $225 is a lot, so I probably would still say no for fear that I couldn't wear it for a long time, and also that I wouldn't be able to wear it a whole lot.

I have seen it IRL. It is not as poofy as it is shown here on the model. i really like it for its own uniqueness. but $225, I d say wait for it to go cheaper.

Exactly. I don't think the cut is a very flattering one.
It looks beautiful in the pic but I agree that it could easily be very unflattering IRL. Could you just return it if it doesn't look right on you? I'm not sure if it's worth $225, though.
I think it's really cute, but I gotta agree w/the other girls. If you're flat (which we know you're not) it could look like it does on the model, but if you're luckier in that area than the model, it won't fit the same.
