Everything looks better with black.  I was once told that this was because black made facial features “pop”.  This is why the “little black dress” category exists, and you can see why with this model.

This model also gives us another illustration.  In multiple reviews we’ve discussed where a hemline would be when a person sat down.  If you click this image through to the actual item and look through the alternate images, you’ll see that this hemline falls a little above the knee.  Here, as this woman sits, you can see that a few inches above her knee and of her thigh are shown—and the way that she has to sit to keep some semblance of modesty.

When you wear a skirt that ends above the knee, or doesn’t go somewhat down the calf, you have to remember to sit “lady-like” and I’m sure you’ll find yourself tugging at the skirt wishing it would go down further.

Other than that, no complaints with this dress.  There’s a slight V-neck that I don’t think would be an issue for anyone.

Your thoughts?


I'm a 35 year old guy married to the most beautiful woman in the world (VirtuousBlonde) for 10 years, and has 5 mostly adorable children-- depending on whether they've had a nap, of course. I'm a software developer by trade, though I like to write on various topics. I got my start in blogging at MInTheGap in 2004 writing about culture, politics and got started talking about modesty on this site just 3 years ago.

    Other than the length, this is a decent dress. I’m not crazy about it, but it isn’t horrible either…

    I think its cute! Excepting the length, of course. Definitely needs more inches in my opinion!

    This one is modest on the top. It is way too short. It would have to be below the knee before I would wear it.

      Thanks for commenting, Erin. It gives me the opportunity to do so again. :) You know, since I’m going around rating posts.

      I like the gloves. Read other thoughts in former comment. #Feb2011NCARating
