Alison Reviews Kiss Me Deadly’s Vargas Dress

October 29, 2008 by Alison 

With so many women out there wanting the ‘perfect’ body and going to unthinkable lengths to get it, we’re delighted that more and more designers are bringing out sexy Shapewear to help women feel good about themselves. Kiss Me Deadly’s contribution to this ‘trend’ comes in the shape of their Vargas Girdle Dress; it certainly looks gorgeous, but will it be comfortable and will it help Alison stop worrying about her unwanted lumps and bumps?

Sizes: B – DD cup
Price: £39

Fit 5/5
Although my bra size is a relatively easily found 32DD I often find that bras that say they are a DD cup often just don’t fit properly; in recent times I’ve become less adventurous and instead tend to stick with the brands I know will fit me. I was amazed therefore that the bra part of this dress fit extremely well and seemed to compensate brilliantly for the fact that one of my boobs is not far off a size smaller than the other. The rest of the dress fit like a glove and smoothed every last lump and bump on me!

Support 4/5
The Vargas dress supported my ‘problem zone’ very well; my tummy was held in place by the reinforced powermesh panel and there was not a wobble to be felt! The bra is well made and the underwire and band did do a great job in supporting me; I did feel that perhaps the fabric used on the cups could have been a little firmer as the lace was slightly too slack. As my boobs aren’t of very large proportions I wasn’t terribly worried about this, as they were still held in place and I felt secure that I was being supported well.

Style 5/5
I love the Vargas dress with its beautifully retro style and six garter tabs for stockings. The day I chose to wear it for the first time was one of those days when Gok Wan would have had his work cut out for him; however as soon as I put the dress on I felt amazing! It was sexy to say the very least and I would have had no trouble at all standing in a shop window with a smile on my face!

Comfort 5/5
As so often happens with shape wear, you benefit from its pulling in qualities, but you suffer (silently of course!) in the comfort department. The Vargas Dress however not only looks gorgeous, it pulled me in without cutting off my circulation and I could eat a meal without feeling like I had a large elastic band around me.

Price 5/5
Sexy shape wear is becoming increasingly popular though unfortunately it often comes with a hefty price tag, so it was a welcome change to see that the Vargas Dress is extremely good value at only £39.

Verdict:
What more can I say other than: Go get a Vargas Dress - it’ll make you feel and look gorgeous - and with a choice of white, black and limited edition colours, there’s one to suit everyone!
