I bought this as a confidence dress as I got promoted to a new global role and needed something I felt like a grown up in, together and minimal but confident – and Red is my confidence colour.

Since then I started weight training and as I got stronger my body got a bit bigger, so my glutes are too big for this dress. And I have no intention to get smaller; I enjoy feeling capable and strong.

I hope someone else will get the confidence this dress brought me.
