that sucks, these empire waist dresses really do take a certain body type to pull off though. i'm way too short to wear a lot of the long, elegant pieces that i like.

i think as long as you don't pair it with ugly storenvy accessories, it won't look pastel goth. there are some good examples out there of people layering the OP with aprons/corsets or underskirts to help pull more black into it and style it in a more gothic way. i don't endorse this girl's tights, but the apron helps balance the whole look and ofc de-sacks (neuters?) the sack dress.
