Thought I’d show you the dress I almost used for the ASOS Round 1 Stylist comp (Round 2 is coming up soon. Votes are still being taken for Round 1 here. I think you have to ‘like’ the ASOS facebook page first).

The giant sleeves. The floor skim length. The blanket-like material. Love. Love. Love…

    Although it is the sign of an unfinished garment i really like the curling of the material at the bottom.

    Really, though, you look stunning.
