Would you keep this dress?

It's BCBG, $178, looks great. I have a ton of parties coming up this month and throughout the summer. Two this week alone and another two next week!

My concerns: The colors are very neutral and muted for summer. I'm worried it could look "boring." Plus, I have a lot of going out dresses, so I don't NEED it, however, I don't have anything like this.

I'm so torn!!

I'm just not a fan of that particular dress...you're right...the colors aren't very summery. But, if you love it and can wear it a bunch then keep it.

I don't think it's a very exciting dress at all. I wouldn't keep it. Sorry.

I am seriously torn bc it really flatters my figure, but the colors are kinda blah. I also like the silhouette. I like dresses that cover my back. Tank style.

Does it make you "washed out"? If so, return it.

If you said the dress was $50, $75 then I'd say go for it. But for $178, I'd find something else. The dress is cute, but I think it's a bit too muted for summer. SorryChat Icon

ITA word for word. If you'll wear it a lot, go for it.

Re: Would you keep this dress?

Thanks everyone.

I decided to keep it. I got a bit of a tan, so the colors look better w my skin tone and I figure how often will I find a dress that makes my figure look so good? I'm going to jazz it up with hot shoes and some bling. I'm wearing it tomorrow night-- I'll tell you how it goes over!

i really like the dress, but the colors are a bit blah for me. If they popped more in person, i would totally keep it. For me, it would wash me out.

I LOVE the colors but not the shape of the dress

ETS: I think it's that the neckline is too high

Re: Would you keep this dress?

Cute ... but you would def need a tan with it b/c I can see how it would make someone look washed out...If it fits amazing, I would keep it...

I like it! I think it would even look cute in the fall too, with some tights and a little cardigan.
