Igigi? yes, please.

Disclaimer: Can't believe I'm saying this, but this is a sponsored post! Igigi gave me this dress on the condition that I review it. Igigi doesn't tell us what to write, though, and we get to keep the clothes regardless.

Many magical things happen at Weetacon, but one of the most magical is the Igigi fashion show. Igigi sends amazing clothes; we put them on; we walk through a room while people clap; then we keep the -- spoiler alert -- beautiful dresses. I know, right? I couldn't believe it either.

(The walking through the room in the dress part was terrifying, for the record, but I managed not to face-plant.)

Here is my Nellie Colorblock dress:

You guys, I love this dress. Fire-of-a-thousand-burning-suns kind of love.

Unlike some plus-sized clothes (OLD NAVY I AM LOOKING AT YOU), this dress wasn't just sized up as an afterthought. It's clear that Igigi's designers understand larger women's bodies -- and isn't trying to hide them or cover them up, either.

Let's see, some questions...

• What did you like about the garment?
• Everything. It's well-constructed, lovely, and presents the illusion that I possess a waist.
• Was there anything you'd like to be different about the garment?
• Not a thing. No hemming required, no insane bra contraptions necessary, nothing.
• What was your impression of the value for the retail price?
• This dress looks -- and is -- expensive. It's fully lined and has that feel of well-made knit material that isn't going to pill or freak out after one or two wearings (OLD NAVY I AM... nevermind).
• Where do you envision yourself wearing this garment during your real life off of the Weetacon runway?
• I've already worn it for a work presentation -- which makes sense, because it's from the work-wear category. It's not fancy enough for a wedding and too nice for an average day at work for me, but a slightly dressy work thing is perfect.
• Bonus question: how many other Igigi garments do you currently have in your closet?
• Mm... four or five, I think? I wish I could afford many more -- in particular, the Odette dress and the lovely Suzanna Danna's Minelli skirt. And, it should be noted, I have never coveted a single sequin before in my life.

And check this out (I feel like a real blog reviewer person): Igigi is sponsoring $50 gift certificates! Take note:

Want a chance to shop at Igigi on us? Just go to the Igigi website, pick out the garment you'd love to have for your very own and leave a comment here on this post, telling me exactly how you'd accessorize your new Igigi fashion and where you plan to wear it. One lucky commenter will receive a free $50 gift certificate. But wait, that's not all. Each of our Weetacon Igigi reviewers will be giving away a $50 gift certificate to Igigi, so you can enter by leaving one comment on each of those reviews too. Yes, you read this right: Weetacon and Igigi are giving away over $1000 in Igigi by Yuliya Raquel gift certificates! The only catch is that you must enter by May 15 and you can only enter once per review. Winners will be announced on Weetacon Igigi review page by May 18th.

In conclusion: yes. Igigi. It is awesome and you should win something. Yay, do it! (And it's 100% OK if you do it and I don't even know you... I remember feeling weird about that last year, but I promise it's fine. Pinky swear!)
