It also looks much more classier than on the Pat Field website. She is going to be on the HSN channel on 9/23/08 showing her SATC line.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8363921935422034605.post-54626242802416042502008-07-30T20:59:00.000-07:002008-07-30T20:59:00.000-07:00I totally agree: the model, her make-up, the lengt...I totally agree: the model, her make-up, the length of the dress and the fabric used for the actual dress part is very sub-standard. The knock off could have mimicked the length and dress fabric a lot better. It's rather cheap looking. Black make-up? The Domb dress was elegant. Can't wait to see your copy. So glad I found your site!

I would think that perhaps a stretch sateen or gabardine would interpret the look better and look less like you wear the dress for hire, you know what I mean? Or, you could go the House of Fields route and use spandex lame' ;-Prosannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00821550574752151039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8363921935422034605.post-45095270294644278382008-06-21T15:22:00.000-07:002008-06-21T15:22:00.000-07:00Oh, that is so cute, but on me, it would be a tota...Oh, that is so cute, but on me, it would be a total fashion don't!Gorgeous Thingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00105281854898289918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8363921935422034605.post-34020177386423521622008-06-17T17:43:00.000-07:002008-06-17T17:43:00.000-07:00This dress looks like it would ride up and your bu...This dress looks like it would ride up and your bum would be showing all the time.

The dress SJP wore is completely flat at the neckline which I think works better with that sleeve and the one posted here has a cowl/boat neck thing going on which added with the sleeves makes the whole thing over the top.loopyluluhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05885768775937737562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8363921935422034605.post-33170640381377041992008-06-16T16:59:00.000-07:002008-06-16T16:59:00.000-07:00Its actually sold out on the site???
