How romantic and beautiful! So fun to have a fresh new frock! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-new-dress-with-very-puffy-sleeves/page/2#post-2224542 Fri, 17 Sep 2021 01:12:19 +0000 Bijou 2224542@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tanya, I think there is lots of styling potential with this dress because there are many different colours in the print. To be honest, the photos do not do justice to the fabric and have made me an even bigger fan of Erdem. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-new-dress-with-very-puffy-sleeves/page/2#post-2224296 Thu, 16 Sep 2021 11:50:20 +0000 Tanya 2224296@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, beautiful dress and stunning outfit.&nbsp; &nbsp;I have been admiring Erdem floral prints for a while, how fun to see them in real life.&nbsp; &nbsp;Can't wait to see how else you style it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-new-dress-with-very-puffy-sleeves/page/2#post-2224264 Thu, 16 Sep 2021 03:12:55 +0000 anne 2224264@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great dress on you Bijou! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-new-dress-with-very-puffy-sleeves/page/2#post-2224255 Thu, 16 Sep 2021 01:46:27 +0000 Bijou 2224255@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie - tall boots will help make this dress wearable for my mild winter.</p> <p>Firecracker - I love the romantic drama of this dress. It has been very instructive to understand why this dress worked where others with a similar vibe have been 'too much'. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-new-dress-with-very-puffy-sleeves/page/2#post-2224100 Wed, 15 Sep 2021 16:36:17 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 2224100@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just stunning. I agree the sleeves are not too much at all, and I love the romantic drama of them. The dress looks made for you, and you shine in it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-new-dress-with-very-puffy-sleeves/page/2#post-2224090 Wed, 15 Sep 2021 16:16:58 +0000 Angie 2224090@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>oooh! NICE with tall boots too </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-new-dress-with-very-puffy-sleeves/page/2#post-2223978 Wed, 15 Sep 2021 05:08:04 +0000 Bijou 2223978@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow - thank you for all the comments and the votes of confidence on this dress! I was a bit worried that the sleeves would be 'too much', but in the hands of a good designer, the puff sleeves work on this dress.</p> <p>Thank you to UmmLila, LisaP and Sal for highlighting why this dress does not overwhelm me where other floral dresses have - it is all in the proportions. That knowledge will really help me not make future mistakes.</p> <p>Angie - I will have to try white boots, that is definitely in my wheelhouse. I also have tan boots which make for a nice change too.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-new-dress-with-very-puffy-sleeves/page/2#post-2223960 Wed, 15 Sep 2021 03:10:45 +0000 Jenni NZ 2223960@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It’s so beautiful on you!

Longer, and it would be a lot of dress on you. This is beautiful ! &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-new-dress-with-very-puffy-sleeves#post-2223742 Tue, 14 Sep 2021 14:05:12 +0000 nuancedream 2223742@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So stunning and absolutely perfect for you, Bijou! I love the dramatic statement sleeves. Dark florals have also caught my eye for the fall and winter seasons. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-new-dress-with-very-puffy-sleeves#post-2223740 Tue, 14 Sep 2021 13:59:21 +0000 Carla 2223740@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sounds like high happiness factor to me! &nbsp;Very stylish, and I think it will age well. &nbsp;I don’t find the sleeves overwhelming at all. &nbsp;Beautiful! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-new-dress-with-very-puffy-sleeves#post-2223730 Tue, 14 Sep 2021 13:50:12 +0000 Angie 2223730@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KILLER gorgeous on you!

Beautiful! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-new-dress-with-very-puffy-sleeves#post-2223708 Tue, 14 Sep 2021 12:52:57 +0000 Bijou 2223708@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Synne - when I bought this dress I thought of Brooklyn too, especially her 'Dark Romance' phase. It is an interesting observation because we do wear dark florals differently.</p> <p>Star - the reason I bought this dress was to use it as a work dress, so cutting the tags and wearing immediately means it gets worn and enjoyed. I don't want to be precious with this dress as otherwise there is no point in owning it.</p> <p>Lyn - I am glad you think that I can wear such puffy sleeves.&nbsp;</p> <p>Mirjana - thank you so very much! Once I tried on the dress, I was so pleased at how beautiful the construction is. It has small touches like little straps to lock in my bra straps so they don't show on the neckline and the lining is connected to the hem of the dress, so the lining cannot ride up.</p> <p>Brooklyn - it is not hard to be the best dressed on Zoom, most of my counterparts are in polos and hoodies. Someone has to maintain standards!</p> <p>Staysfit - I am glad you like the massive puff sleeves. It does make it quite different to my other dresses.</p> <p>Preppy Pear - it was a lovely dress to wear and I really enjoyed feeling dressed up even though I did not leave the house today (well I did go out for a walk, but that was in gear).</p> <p>Mainlady - thankyou! A good dress always helps to make me feel pulled together and ready for work.</p> <p>Ginger - I have always loved looking at Erdem designs however most are too formal for my lifestyle, this is one of his more casual pieces.</p> <p>Janet - it is nice to try some darker tones which I have been drawn to lately.</p> <p>Robin - I am surprised at how much approval the sleeves have got. I was worried that they would overwhelm me.</p> <p>Gryffin - I remember Anne of Green Gables and her desire to have a dress with puff sleeves!</p> <p>Aquamarine - I like dressing up for work, even though I am at home, it puts me in the right frame of mind to get my work done. I also just enjoy wearing nice clothes, even if it is just for me.</p> <p>Suntiger - I seem to have collected quite a few blouses with puffy sleeves, but this is my first dress with them.</p> <p>UmmLila - you make a good point about the proportions of this dress. I was drawn to it because of the fabric but I think this is a dress that is very versatile because it can be dressed up or down.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-new-dress-with-very-puffy-sleeves#post-2223705 Tue, 14 Sep 2021 12:39:57 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 2223705@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is beautiful. I have always adored Erdem prints. And I like the length on you. If it was midi length and had the puffy sleeves and the print, it might be too much. It's amazing on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-new-dress-with-very-puffy-sleeves#post-2223704 Tue, 14 Sep 2021 12:39:49 +0000 Anonymous 2223704@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh so glam! They're awful on me, but perfect for you! </p>
