I'd keep that dress. The for doesn't seem wrong to me from this angle. </p> <p>I love the neckline of #1 but it's too long for you. #2 is easier to just throw on for the weekend. I love the print and colors on #4 - it's great for traveling too when you need to pack few pieces and still look pretty and pulled together. It'll look good with a nicely cut moto and booties. </p> <p>I later read you have more black dresses. Do you even want to keep any of these blacks? If so - #5 fits the best but #2 would be the best layering piece. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-cleaning-need-opinions-on-these-dresses#post-1518940 Mon, 13 Jul 2015 03:10:11 +0000 Karie 1518940@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like #5 better than #1 or #2, and I like both #3 and #4 on you.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-cleaning-need-opinions-on-these-dresses#post-1518932 Mon, 13 Jul 2015 02:53:05 +0000 Jaime 1518932@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Keep #4 the Ted Baker. Maybe the neckline is not ideal but as a whole I love it on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-cleaning-need-opinions-on-these-dresses#post-1518886 Mon, 13 Jul 2015 01:42:26 +0000 donnat 1518886@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>As if you need any more opinions.... between 1 and 4.. 1 is more flattering because of the v neck. 2 is nice, but generic, you don't love it, so pass.<br /> the Ted Baker seems to be the only one that brings out any love. Alter it, or keep as is, the print is beautiful, I see why you like it. I forgot 3, but again, there doesn't seem to be any love there either. Send them off to where they will be loved. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-cleaning-need-opinions-on-these-dresses#post-1518884 Mon, 13 Jul 2015 01:39:42 +0000 Helena 1518884@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the black ones on you ... I would keep the one you rather out of 1 &amp; 5, as well as 2. The others are not really up my alley but seem to fit your well! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-cleaning-need-opinions-on-these-dresses#post-1518880 Mon, 13 Jul 2015 01:32:40 +0000 catgirl 1518880@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks everyone! I realized I have yet another black dress (an edgier Allsaints one) as well as the long sleeved shift I got for my friends event last year, so I may be ditching all three of these. The Theory dress will stay for now, and I am still agonizing about the Ted Baker dress - tailor said it would be a hard alteration to change the neckline. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-cleaning-need-opinions-on-these-dresses#post-1518874 Mon, 13 Jul 2015 01:09:30 +0000 Anonymous 1518874@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm no help. I like these dresses on you. Could you put them in a holding area? But get rid of any that you don't feel you want to wear again.

Definitely prefer no 5 to no 1. No 1 looks dated to me. I really like no 3, but I see it more as a cool weather dress with tights and boots.&nbsp; No 2 is fine, but I have seen other&nbsp;dresses on you, in a similar silhouette, that are more interesting/funky. No 4 I am not sure about - in terms of it being your style. But my first reaction was good. I don't see&nbsp;any issue with the neckline. I think I am just not used to seeing so much colour on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-cleaning-need-opinions-on-these-dresses#post-1518821 Sun, 12 Jul 2015 23:01:55 +0000 Elizabeth P 1518821@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>And I like all of them on you.&nbsp; I do see that keeping 1 and 5 is a bit redundant, if they aren't part of your normal work attire anymore.&nbsp; My preference is the neckline of #1, but maybe shortened slightly.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-cleaning-need-opinions-on-these-dresses#post-1518820 Sun, 12 Jul 2015 23:01:06 +0000 Lyn D. 1518820@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#3 and #5 are my picks, with #2 a question mark just for a FFBO. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-cleaning-need-opinions-on-these-dresses#post-1518806 Sun, 12 Jul 2015 22:23:04 +0000 viva 1518806@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would keep #3 - really love it on you.

The prints on 3 and 4 are gorgeous and they both look great. If you don't like the necklines, could you try them with a jacket to change the silhouette? 2 looks nice and easy and seems to suit you. Between 1 and 5, I think I like 5 better to hang onto as a basic black dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-cleaning-need-opinions-on-these-dresses#post-1518775 Sun, 12 Jul 2015 21:16:02 +0000 catgirl 1518775@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><i>Which one (s) would you buy again?

I have a very slight preference for #1, but I'd go with whichever feels best on. Something like this isn't exciting, but as we were all commiserating on Lisa's post, sometimes necessary and good to have on hand. I'm looking for one myself.</p> <p>Of the others, I really like #3 on you. Keep that one!&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-cleaning-need-opinions-on-these-dresses#post-1518762 Sun, 12 Jul 2015 20:45:56 +0000 Elle 1518762@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#1 and #5 seem to serve the same purpose - good for funerals/serious occasions. Of the two, I'd keep #5 because it fits better and you feel better about it. For the rest, it depends on how much you can see yourself wearing them in the future. FWIW, I like the print in #3 on you </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-cleaning-need-opinions-on-these-dresses#post-1518757 Sun, 12 Jul 2015 20:38:35 +0000 Vildy 1518757@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I alter the shape of my dress/top necklines all the time. Even do it with sweaters.&nbsp; In any case, I'm crazy about #1 on you because it shows off your shoulders in an eat-your-heart-out way. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-cleaning-need-opinions-on-these-dresses#post-1518738 Sun, 12 Jul 2015 20:13:39 +0000 kellygirl 1518738@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>2,3 and 4 are my faves. I like 1 and 5 more or less equally for a business-y/funeral capsule. My read on 1 is the same as yours but I think u could freshen it up with some accessories or a jacket or cool shoes. Same goes for 5 but I think that neckline looks more current. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-cleaning-need-opinions-on-these-dresses#post-1518734 Sun, 12 Jul 2015 20:09:25 +0000 SarahTheWhite 1518734@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love Rambling Ann's idea!! That is the best way to find out how you really feel in something - see how you feel at the end of the work day! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-cleaning-need-opinions-on-these-dresses#post-1518733 Sun, 12 Jul 2015 20:06:45 +0000 Rambling Ann 1518733@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Do I hear an upcoming dress week challenge? Maybe wear them all to work once and see what you think at the end of the day/week? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-cleaning-need-opinions-on-these-dresses#post-1518732 Sun, 12 Jul 2015 20:05:19 +0000 Laura (rhubarbgirl) 1518732@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Keeping 1 or 5 would be useful for those LBD, funeral, etc. type occasions. Neckline of 1 is more interesting but 5 might be more appropriate...</p> <p>4 doesn't seem to fit you that well, so if you don't love it maybe consign/resell? 2 and 3 I like well enough, but if you're not wearing it... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-cleaning-need-opinions-on-these-dresses#post-1518731 Sun, 12 Jul 2015 20:04:31 +0000 SarahTheWhite 1518731@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just going on sort of gut reactions here... But these are my two cents.</p> <p>1 and 5 are similar enough to work for the same types of occasions and I am liking #5 much better on you. That shorter length takes out any frump factor and I also prefer the neckline and shape of arm holes better. The over all picture on you looks more chic in 5 than 1. I also really love #2. The shape and length are so perfect for your look. 3 and 4 have some similarities to me and as much as I want to love 3 (the silver in your hair is great with it) I just don't see it as perfectly "you" as #4 is. I LOVE 4! That shorter length and great print is just wonderful on you, and I am really liking the neckline too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-cleaning-need-opinions-on-these-dresses#post-1518729 Sun, 12 Jul 2015 20:01:15 +0000 Anonymous 1518729@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love closet cleaning. &nbsp;</p> <p>Number 1: &nbsp;You look fabulous. &nbsp;Absolutely gorgeous. &nbsp;I would keep it.&nbsp;</p> <p>Number 2: &nbsp;Like it too. &nbsp;It suits what I know of your style. &nbsp;I would keep it. &nbsp;</p> <p>Number 3: &nbsp;The fit is sublime. &nbsp;You look fabulous. &nbsp;</p> <p>Number 4: &nbsp;Bright. &nbsp;This dress does not fit with what I know of your style. &nbsp;</p> <p>Number 5: &nbsp;I prefer the neckline of number 1 (if you are going to keep one or the other). &nbsp;</p>
