So I have that twenty year high school reunion coming up this summer and supposedly there will be an evening that is semiformal. As you might imagine, I have nothing to wear, unless you count yoga pants. So I went to Eshakti to check out their cockatil dresses. I did find one I liked - the Jet Illusion Yoke Jacquard dress.
Paul said it looks vintage when he was taking the pictures, and that is what I liked about it. I also like that it makes my waist look slender, while covering up belly fat. It is sleeveless, with a scoopneck.
The bodice is princess seamed, with an embellished paillette illusion yoke. I found it comfortable and a good fit.
I'm not sure whether this will be the dress for the reunion, but at least now I have Option A! Eshakti carries a wide variety of women's fashions (from size 0 - 36W) and you can use custom measurements and change the lengths before you order.
Disclaimer: I received this dress from Eshakti for review purposes. The opinions stated above are my own.

Well I can't comment to much about dresses lol ! But I'm sure you will look great in no matter what you pick and it sounds like a great time ! I didn't go to my 10 year kinda wish I did ! Have a great day
I love it. You look wonderful in this beautiful dress!
How is it possible that you have been out of high school for 20 years? And what belly fat? Love that dress. You look beautiful!
Gorgeous Lisa -- yes, you need to wear this to your reunion and make the other ladies uber jealous! :)
You look so pretty! you need to wear that to your reunion!!
Very Pretty Lisa! My Daughter just got one from them that didn't fit and she needs to send it back.
The dress looks awesome on you, I think you should wear it to the reunion, very figure flattering and a class act.
PS.. you really shouldn't complain about hiding belly fat, are you kidding me??...
Definitely an option. Love the color and the neckline.
This is very nice Lisa.Wait till you see some of your classmates, we change so over the decades.
Wow! Looks great, Lisa!
Very pretty! And you look comfy and confident in it, which is everything.
Most Excellent! Completely Beautiful YOU. Your classmates will be google-eyed and asking you "How do you do it? . . "
love & love,

You look lovely in the dress, Lisa--definitely a keeper! You certainly don't look like you're getting ready for a 20 year reunion!
It is a perfect dress for you - beautiful pics.
Oh I agree with Nancy I am so glad you are not in my class I would not want to stand by you:)
It is gorgeous on you. B
That dress would get my vote! 20 year reunion? You've got to be kidding! How about 10?
That dress is gorgeous Lisa! And it looks stunning on you!! You should definitely wear it to your reunion!
I love it! It looks like it was made just for you! And so cool that you got it for free! For some reason my graduating class are a bunch of snobs or something because we have not had a single reunion at all so I have no clue as to what people even wear to one.
that's a 10 in my book! i'd stop looking if i were you!
I think that dress would be perfect for your reunion. I like the bodice it is very flattering.
You look very pretty in it, and I love the shoes! I hope you show us the dress you finally choose. And I cannot believe you have an ounce of belly fat!
Not that an old guy knows anything about styles but it looks really nice. I went to several reunions and some of the women wore some ridiculous outfits. Wow, I just thought, my 40th will come up in a couple years, yuk.
gorgeous lisa, the dress is perfect for you!!
Lisa, you look gorgeous in that dress. But I think you are the kind of person who would look cute in a paper sack. No matter what you wear, you are going to be turning heads at your 20th reunion. :-)
A winner!
You look great, Lisa.
xoxo

I like the dress. But I think you'd look good in whatever you chose to wear.
You surely couldn't have been any smaller then you are now! Where's the fat youre talking about?
You are so gorgeous.
You look sensational!
Wow, I think it looks great! Definitely makes your waist look teeny tiny. But no matter what you wear, you'll knock 'em dead!
Very flattering colors and dress on you! Belly fat??? You are funny! You don't have any fat! Don't be so hard on yourself!
I love the vintage feel it has. It's very flattering on you!
I do like the vintage look as well. It is very classy. My 20 year reunion is this June. It is not looking very "up scale" so I do not think I'll be needing such a dress. I may not even go...lol.
Very pretty, Lisa. As pretty as you are, anything you wear would be FABULOUS. I'm sure you'll choose just the perfect outfit..
Hugs,
Betsy
This dress is beautiful on you - I hope you wear it to your reunion - you will knock them dead! sandie
I love this dress - and you have an enviable figure!
Wowzer! This dress is perfection on you, style, fit and color. I say wear this one to the reunion!! You are such a knock-out anyway, but this dress is so perfect on you, Lisa!
I love it, definitely wear it!
YOWSER! You look like a model! That dress is splendid on you!
It's cute...but I think you gotta be a tad more flashy for the reunion. Folks tend to go all out for those things--you know, they want to look "good" and all that stuff. You look fabulous--flaunt it, pally!
Wow- its a beautiful dress and you look so pretty!
love

I like it! Elegant but not overdone.
I really love this dress! Just classy enough with the sheer bodice and sweetheart neckline, but with a different kind of look for the rest of the dress. Not too fancy, but really pretty.
love those shoes. what would you do with your hair? an up-do? ( :
Wow! What a beautiful dress on an equally lovely lady! It does indeed look vintage :)
I think it's perfect for your reunion! Beautiful!
You look great! I love the dress!
I think it looks vintage too and I really like it. You know we all know that you have no belly fat right? LOL
