scoop back dress that ends mid-thigh. The scoop in the back ends just above my waist line to expose of my back. The material of the dress is gathered all the way around the scoop and the slight scoop in the front shows off my cleavage. I love the material that Misty used for this dress. The satin lined with silk is extremely comfortable. I glance at myself in the mirror as I walk over to grab my shoes for the night. I decide not to wear stockings with the dress so I can wear a pair of three inch sandals. I take a seat at the bench at the end of my bed and put the sandals on. The strap over my toes is the same lavender color as the dress but the rest of the sandal is white. I finish buckling the strap around my ankles and stand so I can decide which jewelry I’m going to wear tonight. I make it over to my jewelry box and pull out a thin white lace chocker. Since the dress is long sleeve I’ll only wear my amethyst ring. The amethyst stone is set in a white gold band. Now that I’m ready I grab my phone to send a text to Misty and Cassandra. …show more content…

    ...e can, however, signal her virginal status by dressing in a way that represents its equivalent: as a southern belle. In addition to her low-cut blue dress, with its feminine, puffed sleeves, Arvay wears a floppy-brimmed “leghorn-intention” (straw hat), decorated with a “big pink rose” (suggestive of reproduction). Most tellingly, we are told that she is wearing a corset that is “laced very tight” – so tight that she cannot eat her dinner. Corsets hold in the flesh and nip in the waistline to an attractively small diameter. By narrowing the waist, they emphasize the swellings of the hips and breasts, a contrast intended to stimulate sexual arousal. Thus Arvay’s wedding/reception attire emphasizes her fragility and innocence while highlighting her desirability. The clothing signs her as an object for consumption, rather than celebrates her as a beautiful companion.

    The dress was adorned with ruffles all the way around the top of the sweet-heart neckline and sleeves, and also all along the bottom. The garment also had multiple layers. One layer was of a lavender color. There was also a layer on top of that, which was made of a more sheer-material and had stripes of off-white and lavender. This second layer was subtle enough to add shiny detail, without taking away from the beautiful purple color. The dress also had a sash of the second layer’s same material, around the waist. My garment was rich in

    At the beginning of the story Arlene and her daughter, Champ, are at K-Mart. Arlene is looking for makeup and hair dye that will go with a dress that she is borrowing. This is where Viramontes first uses the phrase “it sounds right”. Now think, will this color go good with Pancha’s blue dress? – Pancha is Arlene’s comadre. Since Arlene has a special date tonight, she lent Arlene her royal blue dress that she deeps in a plastic bag at the end of her closet. The dress is made of chiffon, with satin-like material underlining, so that when Arlene first tried it on and strutted about, it crinkled sounds of elegance. The dress fits too tight. Her plump arms squeeze through, her hips breathe in and hold their breath, the seams do all they can to keep the body contained. But Arlene doesn’t care as long as it sounds right.

She lured me into her sensuous web with promises of heathen desire. Now U2 plays and other memories from my teens and early twenties come as I race across streets, bang on cars, rush to join a crowd that I no longer see, so keen and now … different. The girl, English accent, cute in my shirt, stands on the front porch after one of the many sexual expeditions, a relationship based on sex, drunken sex, never sober, and I have the customary cigarette while two other friends sit inside my shadowy glow. They feel my passion, or the remnants.

  • Analysis Of The New Dress By Virginia Woolf

    1119 Words  | 3 Pages

    “The New Dress” is a 1994 short story by Virginia Woolf. The story features Mabel Waring, who goes to a party wearing a yellow colored dress. The dress is newly made purposely for this occasion. The story is about the dress that Mrs. Warning wore and felt that it is not good. My first reaction to the story is that the story is about the dress, and it caused large discomfort to Mabel Waring. The discomfort of Mrs. Waring was not mainly caused by the dress, but the writer used the dress to symbolize the social displacement Mrs. Waring was, that she felt that she was out of place due to her social class. The writer uses some stylistic devices to bring out the message of the story and to make it appealing to the reader. "The New Dress" was the

    When I slam the dressing room door on her hand, I am sure she realizes it was a mistake. I didn 't know dressing room protocol around these parts calls for a saleswoman to put the gown on you. By dress No. 10, I 'm expert at this drill: Head up, arms down and turn to the mirror. By No. 20, I have mastered the more-is-less rule: The more faux-pearl sprigs and jazz-recital sequins adorning the gown, the cheaper the gown. A simple dress costs more than a mortgage. By the time I choose my dress, I have tried on 30. At the first fitting, as I stare down my bridal reflection in the mirror, the reality of the situation overwhelms me: 200 guests and a 150-foot aisle. The blood drains from my face. I feebly mutter apologies to the seamstress as I falter off the pedestal and crumble to the floor, a life-sized mushroom of satin silk organza. "I hope I didn 't wrinkle the dress. I was about to faint." She sighs. "You brides really have to eat more." I Do, after all It 's lunchtime, and I 'm complaining about wedding plans to one of my brothers-in-law. He and my sister have been married a decade. Since that time I 've rarely heard him wax sentimental. Just as I am about to bemoan the state of veils in the '90s, he does just that. "You know
