<p>I think it’s a lovely dress and completely appropriate for someone who is 45. I could see women in their 50s and 60s wearing it. Clearly, anyone who wears it needs “good arms” no matter what her age.</p>
<p>Agree with hmom–I know a number of 60-year-olds who have great figures–even better than their Ds.</p>
<p>I’m not slim but I am shapely. And thanks to modern fabrics in underthings, no one has to know the feats of engineering involved to keep my curves aloft!</p>
<p>Mr PMK likes my curves just as they are, always. So I’m all set. Lucky me!</p>
<p>Happy 45th DB. Will definitely give you a shout out at one of those occasions and count down the cost of the dress 
After all, you’re doing your part in keeping the economy afloat.</p>
<p>I was surprised at how many of the ladies at D’s graduation were wearing khaki slacks with colorful dressy blouses. How did I miss that trend? </p>
<p>This Lilly dress would have fit right in at D’s graduation. I wore a casual sleeveless dress and I have very average arms.</p>
<p>45? A mere child…</p>
<p>I also vote yes on the dress.</p>
<p>That dress is stylish and definitely conservative enough for an oldster in my book. So a ‘yes’ vote here. I wouldn’t worry about arms, legs, hips, etc. Actually, fitted styles are more attractive on most women, no matter their weight, it’s a matter of finding one that’s the right size. I’ve noticed that there are a lot of pretty dresses this season with a short “babydoll” style–you know, gathered somewhere around the chest and then puffing out from there. That style is definitely for the under 25 crowd.</p>
