Body-con dresses

lol, I haven't got it . . yet! I just saw it and thought oooo shall be ordering that on Friday (payday!) Im a size 10-12, but will go for a 12 to accommodate boobage and washing!

EDIT: Just measuring myself as the dress is apparently 37'' side neck to hem, but 37'' is like to my knee cap (and im tall 5ft 8/9), anyone else measured and found this? . . . And also my mum just said its sluttish?! . .

Yeah im also a 5ft 8. Oh god do u think its slutty?

yeah, i saw that one. it's a shame you can only get it online though and i've heared ASOS isn't amazing quality. i think a dress like that you really need to try on first.
it doesn't look like a bad deal though if the material is actually nice enough for it not to look cheap.

it's not slutty at all! it's a v neck, so shows a bit of cleavage, but um, to be honest only if you have massive amounts to show. it'll probably be just above the knee, so again not sluttish. I think it's very sexy but without being slutty. Urgh, i hate those massive empire line **** things that make you look frigging pregnant.
show your mum what it looks like in the catwalk video, haha. a lot less sexy due to the model not having massive boobs falling out of it.

Let me know what the quality is like and if it's any good! I would be very, very tempted to order it too, but I've never ordered from ASOS before, so I'm nervous about doing it, especially if I might have to send it back. It says it's stretch, so I should be able to order my normal size...

Yea I don't think its slutty either, its just different, ok not different, but it makes a change from what I always wear when I go out, ie jeans with a top and heels - im getting bored of that look. Hardly ever do I get my legs out or my mum suggests clothes that make me look like im wearing a wardrobe with my head sticking out the top!!!!

Everytime I look at it, im getting v v tempted to just order it and see what it look like - if its pants, then will send it back, if not will keep it. I have ordered from ASOS before and I haven't had no trouble from them at all. The top I got before was a little bit bigger than I thought, but its not noticeable.

As for size im a 10-12, but might go for the 12 to accomodate for the boobage on top . . .

They have a size guide, but i'm not sure if I can trust it, especially not if you say the top was a bit large. Cause according to their size guide I'd have to go up a size if I order from them. but the dress should be tight and I wouldn't want it to be baggy anywhere.
Argh, do you know how tempted I am to order it now?!

Yea, my friend lives on their website and she has said that their sizes tend to be a lil (not majorly) bigger. The top I bought was halter neck, so that might be why its a lil on the biggish size, perhaps? . .

LMAO I have no £££ in my account so that is what is stopping me from ordering it until Friday - so im alright @ the moment, but god help me on Friday - I have a feeling im going to be skint by Saturday morning! lol . .

the reason I'm so tempted is because it's black, and looks nicer than anything I've seen recently in the shops.

the zip is quite off putting though, don't you think? Now that i think about it, it makes it look kind of tacky. *sigh*

Soz slow reply, went to shops to get some yogurts

Anyway yea, my reasons are exactly the same as you - its the zip that makes it look a tad meh, tacky . . maybe if it was a pull over dress or something, it wouldn't look bad perhaps?

We had some bodycon style dresses in stock recently - I tried one on for a laugh.. I didn't expect it to look any good!! Especially as I'm not exactly a size 8.

This dress was MADE for size 12 curves, it seems.

I think if it didn't have the zip I'd buy it straight away. But see how odd it looks at the back on the catwalk model, it bends oddly, as it doesn't lie flush against her back. i think i've talked myself out of the dress...
I think if ASOS does them though, that's a good sign, right? how much longer can it be until highstreet shops like topshop make them, eh? (hope H&M will)

in stock? where do you work and were they any good?

Haha, you're probably not going to like this.. I work in Select.

And this was a few weeks ago, so I don't know if there are any left - there certainly aren't in my branch.

i don't know what select is - I have a few shops called 'select and save' near me, but it can't be them, lol, they only stock household junk.
let me google if one is close to me. shame if there is one near me but nothing left

edit: ok, select's website is currently unavailable. great.
