The diagonal lines of the seams are flattering. Worth a try.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/early-fall-wedding-guest-dress#post-1836467 Tue, 15 Aug 2017 13:11:26 +0000 Sara L. 1836467@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it's great. &nbsp;With your great shoes, I think it will be perfect for the occasions you mention. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/early-fall-wedding-guest-dress#post-1836445 Tue, 15 Aug 2017 11:24:14 +0000 Janet 1836445@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Everything has become so casual, it's almost hard to underdress anymore. This seems just right for a wedding to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/early-fall-wedding-guest-dress#post-1836398 Tue, 15 Aug 2017 06:23:31 +0000 Anonymous 1836398@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it.&nbsp; The puffy sleeve should balance your shoulders. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/early-fall-wedding-guest-dress#post-1836363 Tue, 15 Aug 2017 03:01:39 +0000 annagybe 1836363@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Actually Bella, for the Seattle area, and Pacific Northwest and probably the entire West Coast of the USA, this is plenty dressy.&nbsp;<br />I was at the opera Saturday night wearing a Target dress. There were people, more than one in jeans. Also one pair of track pants.<br />Weddings here, I've learned that they're not worth over thinking.&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/early-fall-wedding-guest-dress#post-1836321 Tue, 15 Aug 2017 00:40:29 +0000 tulle 1836321@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a wonderful dress, Anna!&nbsp; Can't wait to see it on you--the piecing is just right, and the fabrics are so fresh.&nbsp; I think you'll find that the ruching on the sleeves will allow you to manipulate the puff a bit, but I don't think you will find it a problem anyway.&nbsp; Sloping shoulders may benefit the most from an exaggerated sleeve, and you have the fashion sense to work that look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/early-fall-wedding-guest-dress#post-1836177 Mon, 14 Aug 2017 15:31:15 +0000 Christina F. 1836177@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Stasyfit, you are correct- I hold a Met subscription most years, though it's up in the nosebleeds. The only people who dress up are the rich people downstairs, or young people who don't come much and are doing it up. There is also dressing up for the galas, which I don't attend. I wear whatever I wore to my fairly casual workplace, including jeans! (Nicely dressed jeans, but still.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/early-fall-wedding-guest-dress#post-1836081 Mon, 14 Aug 2017 10:44:12 +0000 Staysfit 1836081@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's a striking dress. I think it's a winner for weddings, Ballet, even Opera unless you're heading to the Met as a major donor, member of the board, or movie star. In that case, you might need something more formal. </p> <p>I think this dress has a nice Victorian aesthetic but also looks modern, which seems to be in keeping with what I have seen you wear. I love these colors for you. I would think the risk of trying it is low. Go for it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/early-fall-wedding-guest-dress#post-1836080 Mon, 14 Aug 2017 10:38:10 +0000 bella 1836080@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Is this a casual wedding? This dress reads really casual to me despite the fabric. Ditto for the opera. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/early-fall-wedding-guest-dress#post-1836075 Mon, 14 Aug 2017 10:17:52 +0000 Mainelady 1836075@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You have found a beautiful dress. I agree that the shoulder detail might actually enhance your shoulders. IMO this dress is a must try. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/early-fall-wedding-guest-dress#post-1836073 Mon, 14 Aug 2017 10:11:01 +0000 Sisi 1836073@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful dress! I think that puffy sleeves "straighten up" the shoulders line. I suggest you to try it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/early-fall-wedding-guest-dress#post-1835986 Mon, 14 Aug 2017 03:17:56 +0000 Bijou 1835986@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is a beautiful dress, great for a wedding. I love the bold colours and design. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/early-fall-wedding-guest-dress#post-1835970 Mon, 14 Aug 2017 02:33:19 +0000 Ledonna N. 1835970@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>At the very least you have to try on such a beautiful beautiful dress. I'll wear it and I got like linebacker </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/early-fall-wedding-guest-dress#post-1835966 Mon, 14 Aug 2017 02:13:43 +0000 Laura G 1835966@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fun dress! I did have the thought, like <b>Isabel</b>, that with all that cutting and piecing, you'd need to check the fit and comfort carefully.<b></p> <p>Rachylou</b>, I remember when half the fun of going to the ballet was checking out the dresses at intermission. Things have changed...lots of jeans and nightclub wear, at least where I live. But I'll dress up if you will! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/early-fall-wedding-guest-dress#post-1835965 Mon, 14 Aug 2017 02:12:11 +0000 DonnaF 1835965@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, yes! I think this would look better without a strong shoulder line, actually, and would look great on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/early-fall-wedding-guest-dress#post-1835934 Sun, 13 Aug 2017 23:47:05 +0000 Anonymous 1835934@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very unusual, I really like it and it looks totally appropriate for you and for the occasions, I'm only surprised it's not more expensive so maybe better order sooner than later in case not enough design attention went to the fit? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/early-fall-wedding-guest-dress#post-1835931 Sun, 13 Aug 2017 23:17:35 +0000 rachylou 1835931@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok. Have to start following this blog. And wear my boots. And going to the ballet again, so I have an excuse to get dressed up! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/early-fall-wedding-guest-dress#post-1835929 Sun, 13 Aug 2017 23:06:15 +0000 annagybe 1835929@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I found the company from the blog Kingdom of Style.

What are your search terms?!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/early-fall-wedding-guest-dress#post-1835920 Sun, 13 Aug 2017 22:30:25 +0000 Jenava 1835920@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This dress seems very Anna, but is it dressy enough for you? &nbsp;I think with the right accessories it would work. &nbsp;You'll have to try it to see what the shoulders look like on, I think. &nbsp;Hard to tell from a pic if they are huge or just a little puffy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/early-fall-wedding-guest-dress#post-1835903 Sun, 13 Aug 2017 20:27:25 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1835903@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this and think it would do well with sloping shoulders. Also, the color palette will suit you quite well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/early-fall-wedding-guest-dress#post-1835888 Sun, 13 Aug 2017 19:34:34 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1835888@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow--it's pretty, and really cool looking. I think you would look great in it, Anna. I agree with Diana that the puffy sleeves should work really well. In fact, I would say broad shoulders are the one type that puffy sleeves often don't agree with. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/early-fall-wedding-guest-dress#post-1835885 Sun, 13 Aug 2017 19:26:31 +0000 Diana 1835885@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I could totally see you in this! Puffy sleeves hide all sorts of weird shoulder issues, so go for it. (Mine are not sloping so much as really round somehow, and I like that padded/puffed shoulders sharpen them up.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/early-fall-wedding-guest-dress#post-1835870 Sun, 13 Aug 2017 18:47:28 +0000 Janet 1835870@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I could see you really wearing this well, especially with amazing shoes and a strong lip color. I would think the sleeves might do a little visual trickery to broaden sloping shoulders? But not being a fan of puff sleeves on myself, I can't say I have much firsthand knowledge. Might be worth trying! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/early-fall-wedding-guest-dress#post-1835865 Sun, 13 Aug 2017 18:19:26 +0000 rachylou 1835865@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Omg. LOVE this dress.</p> <p>I have (severely) sloping shoulders, and actually, this probably has a lot to do with my unholy, excessive attraction to puff sleeves: they counteract the slope... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/early-fall-wedding-guest-dress#post-1835864 Sun, 13 Aug 2017 18:14:55 +0000 annagybe 1835864@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Also for the opera.</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.finerylondon.com/us/products/ashness-mixed-print-dress-in-roses-print?taxon_id=6">https://www.finerylondon.com/u.....taxon_id=6</a></p> <p>I like the pattern mix, but am not sure of the puffy sleeves. I do not have a strong shoulder line, if anything they slope. </p>
