The SS Laundry dresses I see are ALWAYS tasteful, and those would probably all look fine if they were worn with the appropriate accessories and attitude.
I really like the bronzy colored one and the rose print one in the other posts.
Also, remember:
1. If you're wearing a dress that's a little bare, do not make it "partay friendly." No CFM shoes. No glitter upon glitter or super dark makeup. Medium heels that elongate your legs and flatter are great, but not ones that you'll fall over in or that look like they should be bedroom accessories only. And pretty, soft makeup.
2. If you're a 34A you can wear barer dresses than someone who's a 36C could. It might look faboo on the model who's a size 0 but unless you also are, tread lightly. This is where that quote "know thyself" comes into play.
3. If you're ordering online - either order in PLENTY of time to send it back and get something else if it doesn't work, or order several things and send back the ones you don't pick.

This is why I dislike the show and tell pref dresses. Who knows what the girls look like that are seeking advice. We all know women who wear outfits that are completely wrong for them just because it's the hot look. Ask your Recruitment Counselor what is appropriate or when in doubt, get something that is cute on YOU without being skanky. These dresses, while all cute, may look HORRIBLE on anyone else.
