How great is Evans' Bow Detail Dress? I so would have worn this to my prom. The silhouette is 1950's at its best - absolutely made for a Bombshell body. And the pistachio color, while very retro, makes the dress feel fresh and modern. To reinforce the modern side of this look, I would accessorize with metallics:
Because the length of the dress may hit around the thickest part of a Bombshell's calf, pair it with shoes that are open along the ankle. It will elongate your leg in a way that shoes with an ankle strap won't. This pair by Naturalizer features a 2.75 inch heel so you'll have a little height but will be able to walk and dance. You know, the important things.
The bow detail on Nordstrom's silk flap clutch mimics the dress's bow, which is a nice way to unify the dress and bag without being too matchy. Photo credits: Evans.uk.co; Nordstrom.com
I don't think you have to be 16 to wear this dress. Would be great for a summer "event". You'd look great in it! Of course with your style you'd probably look great in anything.
ReplyDeleteAnd I'm going to bet that any event I go to at the ripe age of 29 would not end with my parents waiting up wondering where the H I'd been all night. Not that I would have done that at 16...
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't count on that!
