statuesque

does the model seem six feet tall to you in this dress? you can't even tell where her legs start! it's amazing how fabric can make you look like a completely different person. i'm sure the model is on the taller side and that's why the dress looks so amazing on her. and unfortunately, i think you have to be at least 5'5" to be able to pull off such a long length. tailoring it down would be an injustice. there's actually a small percentage of metal woven into the skirt of the dress to give it that sheen and probably also to maintain its stiffness, how genius. i like how the top is just as playful and dramatic as the bottom. since you're covering all of your legs, you have to show some skin somewhere. and instead of a whopping load of cleavage, there's some sexy shoulder play instead. who says your clavicle isn't sexy? the only area i might be a little wary of is the bust. the model seems a bit flat-chested because she's either flat-chested or not wearing a good bra. a really good strapless bra would be necessary so your chest doesn't get lost in all the fabric. and to top it off, this outfit would definitely require a clean and chic up-do. heaven forbid your hair competes for attention.
