Who knew? They actually don't seem very 80's to me... I guess when I think of 80's, it conjures up images of shoulder pads and leg warmers. :je Well, what goes around comes around.  -Taylor i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif |

Hello Libby!  Was this Dame Edna's wedding dress?  A bouquet of gladioli would set it off nicely!  Richard  |

Hi all! I've unearthed a few more Hayley dresses! This time completely by accident when I was playing around looking at dresses on Pin Interest. For the Hushabye promo videos, Hayley first wears a black pleated gown by Italian designer Luisa Beccaria from the Autumn 2013 collection.    Secondly, Hayley wears a lilac tulle with lurex embroidery full skirt dress also by Luisa Beccaria and from the Autumn/Winter 2012 collection.    www.luisabeccaria.it/collezioni/05.asp?lang=EN&ID=1185Although you can't see a lot of detail in the clip as Hayley is hiding most of the dress (total crime, as it's an incredible frock) I'm adamant this is the same dress. You can see that the neckline and the sleeve beading is the same. Plenty of Luisa Beccarai dresses here: pinterest.com/search/pins/?q=Luisa%20Beccaria%20Although, I'm not sure how keen I am on the black gown - beautiful - but maybe a bit dramatic and gothic for Brahms Lullaby? I get that they wanted to inject some solid colour in, as the other videos had neutrals. I quite like this Luisa Beccaria dress and I think it looks quite dreamland / other worldy  |

I don't like the first one because of the sleeves. In the video especially, if you don't look closely, the sleeves make her arms appear unnaturally skinny, and then her hair style here seems to enhance the whole skinny look.
I think the 2nd dress, although mostly hidden, looks way better on her than on the model. On her, it looks more white, while on the model, it's see-through, which makes it a fleshy color. I suppose Hayley's paler complexion makes a difference, and maybe it's the lighting of the video, too.
I do not like the last dress you show, the top is way too square. I like the colors though.

Well done Jillian! Good work  Seeing that black dress full-length ...  Looks a bit Darth Vader -ish i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gifNow the second dress is very pretty! Could be a bit darker, say a lovely violet color would be great. Dress number 3 is a bit extravagant. As Libby said it's very square. Nearly genie in a bottle i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif *** ***Also not claiming to be a fashion guru.  |

I'm glad I'm not alone in not admiring the last dress pictured. I wouldn't call myself a fashion "guru"... I actually know almost nothing about fashion. I don't really know what's in style and what's not; if you saw me, you probably wouldn't be very impressed with my wardrobe (though when you're very petite, finding clothes that fit you can be quite difficult). I just know what I like and don't like, that's all! i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif However, my sister does seek my opinion on clothes before she buys them quite often. I'm good at color, if nothing else. |

Hello folks! The neckline of that last dress is horrible. It looks like a guide for use on a guillotine... Cut above this line! Richard |

Oh boy, you would think of that, wouldn't you, Richard? |
