Sadly, if you are a petite girl with a big chest, there is really no way to wear it without looking like a hot air balloon, as I discovered in a dressing room a few days ago. I love it so much, but it does not love me!

excellent styling tips. i approve of them in all ways, despite definitely not being able to wear them as such.

And what about the girls who hate our legs? I say it in the store and thought it looked really cute but way too short. Wondered if it would work with jeans and a cardigan. . .(This was the same trip where I tried the Doo.ri blouse with the scarf hoping that I would somehow look as fab as Agyness or Liya and failed miserably).

the second look in particular is really great. i'd wear it exactly as displayed in a heartbeat (that is, if i weren't a college student too po' for chloe and prada).

I'm newly prego and wouldn't even consider this dress. I'd feel like a flotilla no matter how much structure was added.

the print makes this dress too recognizable for me but i do appreciate your styling tips esp for us "small on top" girls.

I dig the Styling Tips as a feature- you should do it regularly... I'd never ever wear that dress though. :)

I purchased this dress the day it came out. When I brought it home, though, I noticed how sheer it was. I was super bummed and had to return it :-/
