This dress looks so good on you. Surely you'll find someplace to wear it - it's too nice to hang in the closet.

I love your dress, of course I wear business clothes every day. I do have this pattern, but have never made it.

Very classic, yet up to date because of the sleeves. Very couture. Wear with pearls.

Fantastic. I'll take it if you're not going to wear it! :)

Oh, the dress is perfect on you! It does look a bit business-like, but I bet you can spice it up with some accessories and wear it to a nice dinner or something. I bet this pattern would be sassy in a bold color...uh oh, now you've got me thinking. ;) I don't need any more projects!!

That looks too fabulous not to wear. Throw on a pair of big hoop earrings and you can go out to dinner.

Beautiful dress. Looks perfectly made. I agree— accessories and maybe boots instead of shoes could make this much less business-y. Has anyone ever told you that you look like the model Niki Taylor? :)

Hey Cindy, lovely dress, the fabric is all business but the pattern is almost romantic, do I sound nuts? Marita

This is so lovely on you! I think it calls for making up an occasion to wear it. :-) Beautiful details, love your shoes too.

This dress is very pretty, and it fits you beautifully! Well done, and thank you for sharing your review!

Cindy - great looking dress. The fit is so good you should consider making it in a pretty cotton print for summer. It wouldn't look "business like" at all.

thanks for all the generous compliments you guys! Marita, I think you mean romantic like I mean it has that 30's-40's old movie look.....:)

hi, i love this dress, and on you it looks great! you could try a hot pink belt and fishnets along with big accessories and very high heels to make the dress more party worthy.

You are too darn cute in this dress! Too bad you don't really have any where to wear it because you would be turning heads for sure. You know, I think I have this one as one of my UFOs still...

Very nice dress--a great wardrobe staple. I'm sure you'll have a need for it sooner or later.
