The Wolford Fatal Dress

I've always related Wolford to super expensive hoisery for older women. The other day however, I found out that I was only half right. Yes they are super expensive, but they are not neccessarily just hoisery for older women.

They also make this genius creation called the Fatal Dress. It is basically a seamless tube that is long and stretchy, but it is so chic and versatile it is a wonder its not all over the place by now. This stretchy tube can be worn as a long tube dress with stregically placed creases to enhance and hide your best body features and to just provide texture and style to the dress. Although despite all the strategic creases, this dress is still VERY body hugging. So you really have to love your body to wear it.

It can be stretched all out and long like in the picture or it can be scrunched up into a sexy body hugging mini dress. They also showed up how to fold the top down a bit to create a twist around the bodice. This dress is also marvellous for travelling, as you can just fold the dress down into two layers and create a pencil skirt. Thats already 4 different ways to wear this dress, just imagine the potential!

But here's the catch: this amazingly versatile and femme fatale dress costs $150. But it all depends on the way you look at it. If you like the whole body hugging and pencil skirt silohuette thing, it can be a bargain as it saves luggage space and can potentially create many different looks. And if you don't like the pencil skirt thing, I did spy an A line skirt version of this. OR it can be a rip off because in the end it IS just a piece of long stretch tube. Your choice!
