Target Kimono Dress related

[DarcyLongfellow]

I finally broke down last week and bought the Target Kimono dress for a brunch I had to go to on Friday.

I had both DH and my mother approve the dress to confirm that I did not look like a pregnant whale in it (note: I am not pregnant), and they both told me it was cute.

Then we spent all weekend at the golf tournament in town, and I saw THREE other women wearing that kimono dress. Each of the three was very overweight, and that dress was not at all flattering on any of them.

I then decided I probably didn't look nearly as cute in that dress as I thought I had :-(

Perhaps I should take a photo of myself in it and use it as motivation to exercise!

I look pregnant in it.

Hence, it wil remain in my closet on a hanger until I am actually pregnant.

I wore mine around the house yesterday. It was super comfy, and I don't give a shit how it looks.

Have it. Wore it to the pool this weekend. It does not belong in my wardrobe. Horrid.

Now, are y'all talking about the short one or the long version? I have both, the maxi is awesome and the short one is extremely unflattering.

I look awful in that dress... I have tried it on so many times, with the hopes that it will look better... Not a chance...

I like mine, but I'm short and stumpy so everything looks awesome on me.

Yeah, me, too.

After lurking on MM a few months ago, I tried this dress on at Target. Awful. Now, I am not pregnant, but have had a baby w/in the last year, so I could stand to lose few. I'd have to lose a lot to make that dress look good.

I have it in black, I wish it would stop bleeding dye on everything else. It looks okay on, but I put it over a cami and leggings.

I need to see a picture of someone -- anyone -- wearing the maxi because I don't understand how even Giselle could look good in a maxi version.

Ha ok, I should have said - in comparison to the short version, the long version looks awesome. I'd show a pic, but since I look nothing like Gisele, I don't want to be ripped apart.

I tried it on this weekend and thought while it would be great for lazy days around the house but I couldn't see it as a going out in public dress. It wasn't totally unflattering but not the best dress I have worn.
