Hit or Miss: Peplum Dress

A Peplum is a small over-skirt or ruffle that attaches to the waistline of a dress. I remember when I was a little girl my aunt who's a seamstress loved her some peplum dresses. Now they are back in full swing this season! But..Ummm.. I'm not to sure how well this trend sits with me. But it's certainly popping up all over the place recently. It's even translated into bridal gowns. I think it's actually super cute on the models. For me, it's just one of those style that I would need to actually see it on before I approve or condemn it. But I think I may have to just pass on this one. Take a look. What do you think, is this a hit or miss?
