A tall, thin woman with small breasts might look okay. In other words, a model. Any other woman would probably look frumpy, especially if she is busty.
I do like the color. It would look good with turquoise jewelry and gold sandals.
It looks like a dress Mrs. Roper from Three's Company would wear. It is very matronly. If it were a mini and some leg was showing, I would say it could be pulled off. No amount of accessories or confidence could make that dress not dowdy.
IIRC Peasant dresses didn't have waists. Or were empire waisted. I don't remember having any dresses that had a drawstring waist like that.
You're thinking of tent dresses. Whole 'nother ballgame. Those are really frumpy. All my peasant dresses had waistbands; otherwise I would not have worn them.
That dress will show alot of skin- so quite honestly it depends on the age of the wearer and the condition of the exposed skin.
