I’ve never bought this style before.
It looks very nice, but you are asking, which to me suggests doubt. I find the dress category of H RTW among my least worn, particularly in silk. If you are hesitating bc of the material (I would hesitate bc of the light color and bc I tend to spill), I would pass. I do get more use out of silk blouses and skirts or pants.

ETA: while im not busty, i do have an athletic build, more rounded shoulder cap, and thicker waist. These factors tend to square me off in my top half.

For that reason, I prefer premier designer RTW dresses to have a more open collar (like a Dior shirt dress) and also a more structured, sculpted waistline.

Hermes does, for example, make a silk shirt and a matching skirt. The latter has a thick elastic waist band that creates more of a hour glass than a tie.

When I do buy an H dress with a tie waist, it’s usually cotton poplin button down bc he crisp quality of the fabric creates a more structured shape. But this is a very personal preference and JMO :)

ETA: this dress is no doubt more comfy and robe like than a more structured shirt dress. But, I also confess that something more structured reminds me not to eat too much and also, if belted, holds me in, if I do overindulge.

Thank you so much dear. I returned the dress for shoes and belt and I am much happier with those. In love with the jet sneakers ❤️Plus I found 3500 euros for it a little exaggerated - it will be probably close to $5k after tax in the U.S., if not more. It is pretty, but not for me. ❤️😘
