This isn't the exact dress - but a boutique has a dress similar to this and wanted to sell it to me for Succos.
I'm not sure. It is for sure flattering on me. But would you wear this?

If your figure can pull it off, I think it's a definite yes!

First of all it is BCBG Maxazria, they are very stylish and fashionable.

Secondly, if the dress looks good on you and you like it go for it for sure.

To the second amother...gypsy? This is so not gypsy style.http://t0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRE5g8RFRMdQZ4FPZwIzl2w4zt8WKmowYxNbnOPMUWhcYFwQPHlH-1qXiI

Umm, no. Did you not notice the transparent bottom panel, about 9 inches deep, which effectively reveals your legs to above the knee? Unless you are very short and would have to shorten the dress that much, anyway, in which case, remove the window-curtains (that's what that panel looks like) and wear the dress in good health.

Maybe your body is different but for tznius reasons I would not wear this.
Like zaq said the bottom is see-through but that problem can be solved by wearing a slip.
For me the real problem is how the angles on top go out and end directly on the breasts. I am large busted and dont want to bring extra attention there.

I love it! It should be easy to line the see through part if your version also has it.

You don't mind the oilam seeing your slip?

My first response? I like it with the right slip, if it exists. And if the color blocking hits you at the right places. Do make sure there's a good return policy while you play with it.
Honestly though, I wouldn't wear it because I don't think it would flatter me. I tend to wear maxi or close to it but this length is fine and elegant.

Why on earth would you not wear it?

You're going to wear it with a shell, right? A cardigan or jacket would ruin the line of the pattern, but a shell would work nicely.

Definitely get the skirt lined properly, and you're good to go. If you're built at all like the model, this dress will make you look amazing.

Yes, I would! With the right accessoires, it will be a hit!!

What is it, that makes you concerened abou this dress in the first place?

I like it, although I usually look weird in sleeveless + shell outfits.

I'm short so the transparent part at the bottom would be low enough to not be an issue.

I love it. I am tall so the waist probably wouldn't work.
