That dress is not flattering at all. There is nothing about it that is stylish.

One other observation from me- they already all look short, squatty, and frumpy in the dress- but the shoes they're wearing also visually 'cut off' the line of their leg to make their legs look stumpier than they otherwise would if they were wearing a different style shoe- something like ballet flats. what is with the shoes, they all basically match, along with the necklaces. Are those the Becky shoes, the Becky necklace...... Be a Becky Clone? And I will admit that I did not recognize Becky.... she is twice the woman she use to be. If you go to their cents of style page from the newsletter, the shoes and necklaces are all for sale too. It really just looks like an affiliate type thing. Becky cannot be making that much profit margin on this clothing thing. Someone is managing the web/advertising, designing, orders, production, everything. Which means she just a face for a dress. Someone at cents really must have thought becky could sell a dress. And she might have, if other people were modeling these.

WOW they really do look like sister wives 😳 Frumpy polygamists unite! I would be really pissed off if my employer made me put that dress on and then take my picture in it. Seriously. And then post it online for the whole world to see! Yikes. No thanks!

Wow. Just Wow. I like Becky, I think she is very sincere. And I think she is a pretty smart cookie, she has been in business for herself, and quite successfully, for a looong time.
I can kinda see her thinking that the dress is ok when trying it on, you know, looking in a fitting room mirror and talking herself into it, maybe liking the color, the softness of the fabric, and going for a very casual, easy style.
But I cannot possibly understand how she can look at these pictures and not physically recoil from the sheer unattractiveness of this dress on herself and everyone else.
Sorry Becky, the Becky Dress is an unflattering disaster.

I agree that it's not very flattering to the women wearing it. The fit just isn't right. That being said, I just bought this dress. It's so similar!
Aagh, the Becky dress has me rethinking my choice. I hope this looks better on me than their dresses do!

View AttachmentAagh, the Becky dress has me rethinking my choice. I hope this looks better on me than their dresses do! This dress seems a little shorter and therefore more proportional, plus there's a decent looking neckline.

Then raise the hem a good 2-3 inches. Then their garments would be showing. Its a Mormon thing.

That’s just awful. They all look short and shapeless..the hem is a little off and it needs some seams to give it a shape. I wore something shaped like that while recovering from abdominal surgery. You made me LOL with tears in my eyes. Not laughing at your surgery, and I hope you are healed and well. About the Becky Dress. Well, umm, all I can say is ... YIKES! What was she thinking?

At first I thought I accidentally clicked on My Sisterwife's Closet website. heehee I kid, I kid.... More like My Sisterwife's Pharmacy. That dress is the most effective form of birth control I have ever seen.

That dress is awful and the price is ridiculous. I want to be a Becky fan-I think I’m just nostalgic-but it’s getting harder and harder.

My first thought was why not just sign up to sell LLR because their stuff is actually better than this. It needs a belt, to be longer or shorter, and be free to get me to even consider wearing this

I guess they decided not to go w/the olive green they were showing a few days agol I’m late to this party, but: 1. Those dresses are hideous and definitely show undergarments! I can see all of their bra lines. 2. The email said the bell sleeve is on trend or on point - I have shirts 10 years old with these sleeves. I didn’t think they were “hot” now. 3. I really expected Mrs. Roper to be standing in that group with them!

I even got a cool sweater with them, but they're not that big and aren't super highlighted like these that are trying too hard.

Um - just to add my 2cents worth: Shoes are wrong, wrong, wrong for that style (?) of dress, and, she said her daughter is going to wear a small.....how old is her daughter? Is mummy/daughter dressing alike a thing? And ew, just ew to it all

oaksong Your dress is pretty. The sleeves are fitted at the right angle and then flare correctly for the rest of the arm length. The dress is draped correctly with nice tailoring in the waist that is neither to tight or too loose. Also this dress is classic but trendy. Flare sleeves are in this year. This style of dress is also in. The Becky dress I just can't get over she is hawking out those bell sleeves as trendy. I didn't see that during Fall Fashion week. We should all send this dress to Marc Jacob and wonder what he would think of it! You know what makes Becky's dress even worse. Those ugly a** shoes all those girls are wearing. Let's take oaksong's dress she just showed us. Can you all see how lovely a long necklace would look with this dress? How it accents the dress and not detracts from it? Look at Becky's dress and the ladies wearing the long necklaces. It really just shows off the worst of their features. No woman wants to accent her breasts that way. Yes, I am a fashion critic. Just pet peeve me to death with bad fashion. I like Becky but this has just made me lose respect for her. I have said before I don't care the girls want to branch out but I do care when they branch out in things they have never studied and only looking at it from a cash grab. I do care when they find the fashion industry a threat to them when they wanted to enter the scrapbooking industry but turn around and hope they can find some embracing with T-shirts and dresses. BSideCrafter Don't drag poor Mrs. Roper into this hot mess, ROFL!!!!

oaksong I love the dress that you picked out! That is exactly the right style- the neckline and hem are great exactly what the becky dress doesn't have! And now I kinda want one like YOU picked out, I don't want anything to do with the becky dress the only thing I like about those is the colors

I love how Becky is pulling the dress tighter in the front, probably trying to hide how hideous her figure looks in it. (It doesn’t help)

Absolutely not. The dress adds at least 20 pounds to all of the women photographed.

I'm just waiting for Tracie C to show up and start defending this, and then start berating us for not liking Becky's latest venture. I would LOVE to see the dress on her. ***backs down the stairs to Hell***

Not a dress I'd wear.
I believe that it is better to excel in one industry, than to struggle in several. She should have stuck to scrapbooking.
