melthemadhatter Posted February 28, 2009 #2 Share Posted February 28, 2009 I think you'll get plenty of compliments on the peacock dress. The other dress blends in more and is more safe. I voted the peacock. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wanasail Posted February 28, 2009 #3 Share Posted February 28, 2009 Peacock, love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Houndmom Posted February 28, 2009 #4 Share Posted February 28, 2009 Both are appropriate and beautiful. Still, I love the delicate pattern on the lavender one, so I chose it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted February 28, 2009 #5 Share Posted February 28, 2009 Either--very asian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jp2001 Posted March 1, 2009 #6 Share Posted March 1, 2009 I like both but the peacock one looks more dressy and more special, it's the one I would choose for elegant night. If you already have both, bring them both! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wagboss Posted March 1, 2009 #7 Share Posted March 1, 2009 I actually wore the long version of the second dress on our first cruise and got tons of compliments. Have you ordered this dress yet? They run really small across the hip area. I wear a 10 normally and got a 12 just in case and it was tight. Also the slit on the side goes very high. :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I usually wear a 10 and ordered the M, hopefully it fits. I have until May though so I should have time to exchange it. I'm also hoping to wear it to a friends evening wedding in May.

stargazer78 Posted March 18, 2009 Author #14 Share Posted March 18, 2009 Both look great! LOL...my daughter is having a fit and want to know where you found them!:eek: Care to share?:D Ebay, do a search for cheongsam and many should come up. I haven't gotten it yet and I think I may have ordered the wrong size and may have to exchange it. Here is a link to the peacock one http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=ADME:B:EOIBSAA:US:11&Item=260223312484 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luvscruising2007 Posted March 18, 2009 #15 Share Posted March 18, 2009 I think they are both lovely and think either would be elegant. However, I did select the peacock because it looks more fun. I am a little surprised at the results of the poll. I didn't feel neither should be an option. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroncosFan2010 Posted March 18, 2009 #16 Share Posted March 18, 2009 Either would be fine. I like the lavender one better though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I may surprise her and get one for her. Best of luck to you on the size...I hope it fits you perfectly. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stargazer78 Posted March 22, 2009 Author #18 Share Posted March 22, 2009 I received my dress today and it was a size too small :( But I've emailed the seller to see about exchanging it. It is very pretty though. It is very thin material and was packed in the smallest box, I never thought a dress would have fit in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mamasue Posted March 23, 2009 #22 Share Posted March 23, 2009 They're both gorgeous!! If I had to choose, I'd choose the peacocks..... I envy you for having the figure to wear them!! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stargazer78 Posted March 24, 2009 Author #23 Share Posted March 24, 2009 After trying it on again with a body shaper slip, it's going to work without exchanging. Now I just have to find some shoes to wear with it. Thanks for all the compliments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
