Ooo, congrats. I’m glad the model was just making it look weirder.

:D The high waist means it does look a bit dumpy on me (I think it suits a smaller bust, though tbf haven't tried it with a decent bra yet). But I bought it for DRAMA, not shape.

Now I want a big black wide-brimmed hat to go with it, and a velvet jacket or two...

Yeahhh, looked again to check I hadn't been hallucinating... I have No Idea how they got it to look like that from behind. I can't do the splits wide enough to make this dress cling to my legs. I think the total circumference is about 2m of fabric.

The colours aren't as saturated as the picture (I should expect this by now, but it always surprises me!). This probably makes it more tasteful/go with more things, but would've personally preferred the more saturated look. And mine has much more pale pink and white above the waistline, where the model's dress has more black. This is annoying because it accentuates the bust in a cut that makes things look a bit potato-ey. But the design is otherwise cool. Pockets on each side, and the way the pattern wraps is clever; you don't notice it. I was really disappointed in the past, when I bought Desigual clothes, only to learn the designs disappeared on the back. Made them look super cheap (plus had "desigual" prominently embroidered on them!). I have a couple of garments from there that are nice... on one side.
