Wilderness Dress *A Review*

18.3.13






Dress - c/o  DressStore  //  Necklace - eBay  //  Scarf - Unknown

Just recently I was contacted about doing a few reviews for the DressStore website.  It's a site the specializes in formal, prom, homecoming, and fancy cocktails dresses.  I liked the idea of playing with gowns that I don't normally get a chance to wear.  For my first piece I selected this lovely claret chiffon gown.  

The quality is to die for.  It has boning and so many layers.  It feels like a really durable piece.  Further, I love the color.  I think I may have to wear this color always.  I may even have to get every dress I ever own in this color.  I just love the combo of the red with the flowing nature of the dress.

Obviously, I've styled this down in a breezy, almost casual, way.  It's certainly not a casual dress.  It's something I can imagine wearing on a red carpet.  What I like about it is that it's glamorous and red carpet worthy without being over the top.  Over the top has it's place, but when I saw this dress I imagined a wilderness shoot, so flowy and delicate were on deck.

  5. The gown, and the way you wear it, is glamorous while STILL being freespirited / pastoral / wild. If I were to encouner a nymph or elf-maiden somewhere in the wilderness, I might imagine her dressed like this.
