[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would’ve said something like “the way it’s cut is weird and it’s not as flattering as the blue and black dresses you tried.” Something to soften it. Blame it on the dress in some way and pivot to how she looked good in something else. It’s hard when they are sensitive, but you have to try to keep it positive and sugarcoat things a bit. [/quote] Yes, this exactly. It's like the compliment sandwich! "Wow, you are gorgeous. I'm not sure about this color, though. Are you ready to try the emerald green one? I'll bet that will be amazing." [/quote]
