For larger busted ladies, those in the know have been fans of the Lady Voluptuous Lyra dress ever since it burst onto the scenes after a collaboration with George of Fuller Figure Fuller Bust. Made from a lovely stretch jersey with a cross over neck and back tie design, the Lyra was the answer to comfy, smart, vintage style clothing which wasn't uncomfortable or restrictive
Available in a huge range of solid colours and prints, I literally squeaked with happiness when I spotted the Long Sleeved Panda Extravaganza Lyra. The whimsical offering featuring brolly and balloon clad pandas was amongst an exciting selection of new in arrivals and I absolutely could not wait to get my hands on it.
Flower: Flower from Temptress of Waikiki
Available up to a UK size 32, the dress has the perfect swirly full circle skirt and an autumn / winter long sleeved update. It has a sash which ties to the back giving the dress an hourglass shape. It's a rare combination which manages to be both smart and whimsical, with the dress hitting me just below the knee at 5'6". I love it so much, and it just leads me on to my next question - how do I possibly choose which one to get next?

ReplyDeleteHaha, I know right? :) Right down to the balloons! x
Deletethis is just too precious!! I just got my first Lyra after being nervous it wouldn't be my fave on my small bust but they seriously do look amazing on absolutely everyone. Love those little balloons, so cute.
ReplyDeleteI've not seen them look anything but beautiful on everyone - they're so adaptable to different body shapes! :) x
