Did you know House of Fraser do plus size clothing? They contacted me to offer me an item and I chose a lovely orange embellished dress from Evans (from the Live Unlimited range.) My dress arrived very quickly and came with the hanger - yes! I never seem to have enough.
It's an interesting fabric - it has a texture on the surface and looks a bit like crepe but it's very stretchy - and I adore the dark orange colour. I had intended to wear it over tights but by the time I'd got to the front door the dress had ridden up, so I wore a skirt over the top. I think if I wore it over leggings it would be better - the shiny tights and smooth dress gave too much slip. I have a yen to buy some velvet leggings, and because of their 'grabby' nature they might keep the dress where it's meant to be.
It has split sleeves and lovely stud embellishments at the neck and hem.
I look mighty peeved in the bottom left photo! It made me giggle. |
Once I got back indoors I wore it on its own so you can see the length of it. Click to see larger photo.
As you can see it's quite revealing, so when I wear it again I'll wear shapewear with it.
