Spot the Real: Carmen Marc Valvo Dresses


Spot the Real: Can you guess which dress costs the most?

Earlier I shared my review of the new Dressbar at Dressbarn, a curated assortment of dresses featuring exclusive collections by designers known for their dresses - including the amazing Carmen Marc Valvo. So for this fashion taste test, I thought I'd mix up some dresses from Carmen Marc Valvo's eponymous line as well as some from his new budget-friendly collab with Dressbarn. I've cropped out the shoes and lips to make things a bit trickier for you savvy gals! (Have you noticed that models never smile in designer clothes, but almost always smile when they're modeling affordable fashion? It's a dead giveaway!)

The four dresses above range from $58 to $595. See if you can guess which dress costs most by clicking a link below!
