Of COURES it's a disappointment. Especially considering your recent loss. It's amazing how we pin our hopes on something pretty, in those dark times.&nbsp;</p> <p>I think you will get at least one of these dresses in your size, with some more patience. A denim dress is a super useful item and you will be rewarded for the effort. Plus, it's only good if it fits, right?&nbsp;</p> <p>I find what Angie says is correct. I have clothing in 4 different sizes, in fact! It's crazy.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-tale-of-2-denim-dresses#post-2305824 Wed, 01 Feb 2023 03:11:00 +0000 Tanya 2305824@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am very sorry about your Mom.&nbsp; Love the dresses, especially the 2nd one.&nbsp; &nbsp;I hear you about the sizing issue, I have everything from US 0 to US 6 on my closet right now.&nbsp; I hope you manage to find the Jason Wu dress in the right size. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-tale-of-2-denim-dresses#post-2305814 Wed, 01 Feb 2023 02:10:10 +0000 Indigoprint 2305814@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes do not be hard on yourself. Losing a parent is such an adult developmental milestone. It takes time to adjust, everything just seems hard. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-tale-of-2-denim-dresses#post-2305784 Wed, 01 Feb 2023 00:35:00 +0000 Theodora 2305784@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-tale-of-2-denim-dresses#post-2305715 Tue, 31 Jan 2023 18:45:41 +0000 Angie 2305715@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Theodora,</b>&nbsp;absolutely not need to apologize!</p> <p>I'm sorry to hear of your Mum's passing. It's very sad, hard, and I sympathize. Grieving takes time, energy, and TLC. It can be overwhelming. I hope you're surrounded by affection and support. Be kind to yourself and take the time that you need to process and restore. One day at a time, and wishing you strength. Take care. xo</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-tale-of-2-denim-dresses#post-2305710 Tue, 31 Jan 2023 18:21:42 +0000 Theodora 2305710@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sorry I am whining. The Jason Wu dress is SO amazing and looks great on, if it were smaller…. It would probably become one of my 20 year dresses.</p> <p>Taking everything much harder than usually, as my mom passed away in October, and I am still very depressed and not myself. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-tale-of-2-denim-dresses#post-2305706 Tue, 31 Jan 2023 17:53:42 +0000 Angie 2305706@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YES! Sizes are all over the place. Most of us are 2 to 3 varying numerical sizes with the SAME body dimensions. It's annoying :(</p> <p>I do find that Euro and British fits are narrower. And sized more how US sizes were about 20 to 30 years ago.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-tale-of-2-denim-dresses#post-2305695 Tue, 31 Jan 2023 17:32:01 +0000 Theodora 2305695@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So frustrating. I ordered both the Alice and Olivia denim dress, and the longer one from Jason Wu. Both ordered in size 4. I am usually a 4, sometimes a 2.<br /> I didn’t want to order both sizes to “help” the environment and stop the waste with returns , but sorry I didn’t.</p> <p>The A&amp;O dress was too tight in a 4, so I ordered the 6 now! The Jason Wu took a longer time to get to me, and is too big as a 4. But now it is sold out in USA in a 2! I found it on Net-a-Porter in the right size on their European site, but they won’t ship to USA(whaaat? In 2023?) and their USA site is also sold out. Seriously, what’s up with that? I order from Europe all the time. Sighs. At least I will get to try the Alice and Olivia dress.</p> <p>This goes to show that sizing is all over the place. I have A&amp;O pants in size 4 that fit fine. You know that men don’t have to worry that a size 33 pant or 44 jacket is any different in size between brands! </p>
