I've never been a fan of floral patterns, especially all-over florals. As a chubby pre-teen, the only dresses in my size at Sears were very matronly florals with large doily collars. Maybe you can relate. Since those years, I have had an aversion to the more flowery prints.
Deciding to step out of that comfort zone, I tried this Igigi dress through Gwynnie Bee. When it came in the mail, I was a little wary of the pattern. It fit really well though, and I added the belt to break up the pattern a bit. I like it so much better with the belt. And then, just to tone it down a touch more, I added a long black cardigan.
Overall, I really love this dress. I did size up to a 30/32 because I have had fit issues with different styles from Igigi. The sleeves have the cute little tie that helps you sinch it in to your desired comfort. I love that feature since my upper arms are quite large.
