Vivienne Westwood Gold Label Opuntia Metallic Corset Dress

Vivienne Westwood Gold Label Opuntia Metallic Corset Dress Price: $3,335 at net-a-porter.com
This is the perfect dress for the figure shy, as it hides a secret corset which flattens the stomach, and boosts the bust! Wear with wide, gold shoes and a gold clutch for a very glamorous look, and find a simple, delicate necklace to draw attention to your neckline.

Chloe Draped Velvet Dress

Chloe Draped Velvet Dress Price: $3000 at net-a-porter.com
This is another vintage style dress, which features heavy shaping to create an extreme silhouette. The velvet material nips in the waist while accentuating the hips and shoulders, and the geometric slanting on the bottom of the dress is to die for! Swap the rope belt for a black ribbon, and team with strappy black heels and a scruffy chignon for the ultimate in 80's styling.

Subarbangrandma, I was actually browsing the dresses and realized that I can sew more than half of the styles. Haha. Probably not the Westwood one because, although beautiful, I am too tiny to pull that off. :D

I fell in love with this Vivienne Westwood Gold Label Opuntia Metallic Corset Dress! It's perfect for New Year's Eve. Black accesories with this gold colour would be smashing! :) But as usual Kati, sorry to have to say this. These are all nice, but be realistic. Everyone is commenting about the looks and dreaming of owning. No one can afford these! Good to look yes! But to buy, obviously no! :S Sorry to say this but I guess I'm truthful!

Im not trying to be mean or anything but i praticaly gaged looking at these..I guess its just not my style. Lol

Lucky you Meream, I'm jelous that you can sew and I can't even hold a needle in hand! I'm sure that you'll dazzle everyone whith your dresses if you try some of those ;)

Hi Kati! I simply adore the Victoria Beckham Briseux Silk Mini Dress, the color is beautiful :)

I love No 2Issa silk jersey dress No 6 oscar DE la Renta metallic knitted tunic No 7 zebra print dress and No 9 sequin embellished mesh dress thanks

Meream, now that I know you like to sew, I bet you can create one just like it, and for a fraction of the cost. That's when sewing is worth the time and effort.

I love the color and shape of the Zac Posen, very girly! The Victoria purple dress is beautiful as well. Im a little surprised at the Oscar de la Renta not the best Ive seen from him!

The Westwood piece looks so decadent. Love the Victoria dress, too. :)
