Diane von Furstenberg Renna Wool & Silk Dress

I love this dress.

If you look at the bottom of the picture, you'll see a little "play video" indicator.  The dress is so pretty. I love the way it looks and moves in the little video.  The model in the video has great classic pumps and a perfect little clutch.  It's a great look.

The page shows the usual kinds of information about the dress.

There's also a section called Size & Fit.  That section says
Model shown is 5'10" (177cm) wearing US size 4.

So, I guess that's good to know, but a part of me wonders how many women are 5'10" and wear size 4.  In the back of my mind, I also wondered if including the model's size info is a subtle way of saying "it's a gorgeous dress but, nyah, nyah, it will never look that good on you."

  1. It is, indeed, a gorgeous dress (unfortunately, sleeveless is not in my wheelhouse)...but you're right. The average 5'10" inch woman is not a size 4, more likely an 8 at least.

  4. It is a pretty dress on a pretty model but would do nothing for me except dent my wallet $485 plus tax. At least the shipping fee would be waived. I am not sure if the price that I have paid for all the dresses in my closet would equal $485.
