Aussie Curves: Purple

This week is a bit of homage to two of my favourite plus size bloggers. I learned of this purple dress from Closet Confessions and I bought the collar tips after reading Fashion Hayley. The dress is from Seraphim, a Perth-based plus size brand that stocks Australian sizes 18-26.

This dress is a beaut!

I'm wearing the size 18 and it fits perfectly. It's made of rayon, so it has a nice sheen and lovely softness (but creases easily). The colour is unlike anything else in my wardrobe, and I think it's just a gorgeous purple. I'm a fan of sixties fashion, and I felt so modish in this outfit with the white boots accentuating the tone of that era. I loved wearing this dress.


Dress: Seraphim
Shoes: Doc Martens
Collar Tips: Ebay
Bag: Gloss

I wore this on a date with my beloved man, out to dinner and to see the new Bond film Skyfall. But those who know me well also know that The Lord Of The Rings are my favourite films ever, so the release of The Hobbit was unbelievably exciting for me. It was fun being in Middle Earth again.

Here are some close up selfies for closer detail of the dress.


Thanks for stopping by xxx

    ITs a very cute dress and you rock it well. Just a question. Seems the lace edges are unfinished. Does it wash well?
