Where would you look and what would you be looking for? I was thinking maybe something like this, except hopefully something a little more interesting.

That is going to look like a sack on most women. And cheaper lace in jewel tones is almost never a good idea.

So you just came to dump on the post, but not make any actual suggestions? Classic.

There was a long and nasty thread about this a few weeks ago. Talbots vs Altar'd State, etc.

Middle ground seems to be Dillard's online.

Do we even have Dillards in this area? How would you return?

Mail it back like we did in olden times.

I know for a fact there are some in Ohio.

For graduation, my dress looks something like these:

Lol, this is the best we've got. Get a dress from some department store in Ohio and mail it back if you don't like it.

PP here. I dumped on the dress. Not the post. That dress is awful. Like you'd be hard pressed to find something worse. It would look very bad on pretty much anyone.

Still waiting for you to make any sort of suggestion. Guess you don't have any.

Sounds like you want a shift dress with some extra zhuzh, in a deep cheerful color?

Do you like any of these?

I feel like lace can look very cheap on most UMC/MC figures. I would stick to a nice simple shift in a navy linen, with a matching blazer. Close toed low heeled Varas or similar.

Why do the models stand like this? I mean, I'm not wondering how the dress would look if I was leaning back to avoid a bee. I'm wondering how it will look when I am standing normally.

Usually because the dress looks even more unflattering in a normal stance. That dress is so sad. What a waste of resources.
