Nine West Rose Dot Fan Print Dress: Another fan!

cciele

So when I first saw this dress in the store, I was very intrigued. Then it came down and price and I couldn't resist ordering it.

The dress is made of a nice quality, heavy jersey that drapes wonderfully. It hides my tummy but gives me the illusion of a waistline. And the print is so fun!

With my new Swedish Hasbeens sandals. I know it's hard to see how the dress falls with my arm in the air, but it looked pretty good to me in the mirror

Making it more casual with jean jacket and red flats:

Not sure all of the jackets work with the dress, so please let me what works and what doesn't. I hope at least the dress works because I love it!

Like Marianna, I like all of the looks too! Seems like a fun, versatile, flattering dress! Can I ask how tall you are?

Cathy, I think this dress looks fantabulous on you!! I like it with all the jackets though I think the cheeky, cropped denim jacket works the best otherwise alot of the detail of the dress is obscured. Do you have any other cropped jackets? I also think the dress would look great with the denim jacket and new sandals.

LOL about the illusion of a waist - this is always my goal too!

I love it in all the ways you have styled it. Thanks for all of the ideas. I just broke down and ordered it too.
It looks amazing on you, and I like your new sandals. You have lovely legs.

KILLER. All outfits! And the silver sandals are incredible. Wow, Cathy!

You look beautiful in this dress and thank you so much for the fabulous review. I also think the dress is a great length :0)

Thanks everyone! It trule is an amazing dress.

Marianna -- I think you saw my separate thread about the sandals. They are more comfortable than one might think. How many hours comfy, I don't know. I'm guessing 4 hours for now. Will report back!

NK -- I am 5'3". I think the dress runs pretty much true to size.

debbiek -- please keep yours! It's such a great color on you.

shana -- Good point about the cropped jacket not obscuring details. I don't have any other cropped jackets, but I do have a black shrug I think might work... Hm!

san -- Can't wait to see your pics

Angie -- thanks! I feel lucky to find these two items that are so lovely and awesome (you don't want to know how much stuff I keep ordering and returning -- bad habit). Funny about the length; when I first tried it on I though it was longer than it really is. Good to know the length is working!

I agree with shana about the jackets obscuring the beauty of the dress? Do you need to wear the jackets considering the dress has sleeves?

Thanks so much for answering my question! I'm 5'2" and wondered about the length.

Ooo, queenie, do post photos! I love how people are styling theirs.

Mellls -- the jackets would be my outer outdoor layer; I usually don't need that layer indoors unless it's particularly cold (like at my parents' house, heh). So the details shouldn't be obscured, normally.

NK -- ah, got it. Hope that length will work for you!
