i am so very grateful to have gotten it exchanged. i'd been having nightmares thinking i'd have to go into the wedding of one of my oldest chums looking fit to do battle with hungry lions.
the poor misguided designer probably had noble thoughts when he/she designed it. perhaps the flashy golden breastplate-lookalike was designed to make the wearer an irresistible center of attention? if that was the intent, the dress will surely fulfill its destiny. no one with a functioning pair of eyes will be able to escape looking at it, and after looking once, will have seriously dilated pupils for a considerable while hence.
the new one is definitely low on bling, though the sleeves are distressingly fashionable. i just cannot see the sense in having sleeves made of net. what is the point? some sort of let-them-glimpse-but-not-see-all theory out of 'the art of seduction'?
will have to do something about them.
in the meantime, i am so glad at not having to go about looking like an out of season lit up christmas tree.
