No, I don’t think so — 14 Comments

  1. And I don’t understand the rationale for the short underskirt: ugly and awkward.

  2. ACM stands for lots of different organizations; for academic software types, it stands for the Association for Computing Machinery, the most prestigious organization for folks with computer science PhDs.

    I suppose this must be a different ACM — but those initials sure gave me a start when I saw them.

  3. I know I’m not up on things, but still. Who is that? And why doesn’t everyone think that is a most silly looking dress?

  4. I don’t know, Neo. Twere I a woman, and wanted to sort of not be seen while being present, that dress would work like a charm. Good for “fat days” and shy days. But… I’m Doom, so… ymmv. :p

  5. Hmm, I think while the dress is different, it isn’t sooo different to be bad. I think she actually looks good in it and it looks good on her.

    Maybe I just don’t have good taste. Also, like others have said, I have no idea who she is.

  6. I’m on the side of those who think it could work – mind you, with a longer underskirt, and better arrangement of the poppy applique-on-tulle design. The obvious seam at the waist doesn’t work. If it were a princess-style sheath, tight at the waist and cut to widen at the hem, I think it would have a more pleasing line. And with the larger poppies at the waist, graduating to smaller ones going up the bodice and down to the hem and the sleeves – that would be a bit more subtle – a bit more elegant. YMMV. And I don’t have the foggiest who she is, either.

  7. The woman wearing it wears it well and that’s all that matters. Her smile and self-assured posture make her the focal point, along with the contrast of her black hair and the poppy-red flowers.

    I’m a yes, I like it.
