One you should know about me: I am a sucker for ruching. Another thing you should know about me: with very rare exception, I don’t do strapless dresses. Too much…HOISTING. And while I don’t yet own this pretty magenta dress, I’m feeling mighty covetous. It has beautiful ruching detail, and the one-shoulder look (which can sometimes have a Snookie-ish quality) seems classic here; almost Grecian. The silhouette looks extremely forgiving, and figure flattering. I’m dying to wear this to an upcoming event this summer with a pair of (ridiculously uncomfortable) gold sandals. (The price is $44.50, comes in other colors, and it ships to Canada, as well. Score!)
Oh. My. that is GORGEOUS. But like Tracey, it’s the strapless bra thing that always gives me pause and I really do need one. Now if you could find a good, comfy, effective strapless, that would be a column that *I* might pay you to write! (And then go back and buy this dress, since the price is definitely right.)
That looks gorgeous – lovely colour too! I have issues with strapless dresses also… and the bra issues that go with them. Oy. You’re right though – it’s Grecian-looking and would be ideal with gold sandals. Hmmmmm…
