I see it's from the pre-fall collection. What the heck is pre-fall? :)</p> <p>I am starting to think I'll be waiting until NAS to score a midi dress or skirt. Hopefully the designers are making them for fall, if not for spring/summer! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finally-a-midi-i-want-why-are-they-all-so#post-340325 Wed, 27 Apr 2011 18:58:54 +0000 Heather 340325@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sarah, that dress is so fabulous. Are you stalking it? I see it is pre-sale.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finally-a-midi-i-want-why-are-they-all-so#post-340284 Wed, 27 Apr 2011 17:42:43 +0000 londonkiwi (now back in NZ) 340284@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another thought, do you keep an eye on The Outnet (<a href="http://www.theoutnet.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.theoutnet.com/</a>), Net-a-porter's discount site. I know that they stock this line at very good prices. You are so slim that your size will probably be available too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finally-a-midi-i-want-why-are-they-all-so#post-340220 Wed, 27 Apr 2011 15:04:03 +0000 rae 340220@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hm, maybe it would be easier to find a maxi and have it hemmed? That trend seems to have been around longer, so maybe there would be more of a print/price variety available. I've found all my midis through thrifting and Ebay, but if you're picky about fit, then that could be more trouble than it's worth. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finally-a-midi-i-want-why-are-they-all-so#post-340212 Wed, 27 Apr 2011 14:50:58 +0000 Sarah 340212@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think what appeals to me about this one is the print (I'm not a print person generally) and the more fitted silhouette.<br /> I wore "midi" skirts growing up (because it's all I COULD wear) so perhaps that's making me more picky about the shapes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finally-a-midi-i-want-why-are-they-all-so#post-340199 Wed, 27 Apr 2011 14:30:07 +0000 Lisa 340199@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous dress! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finally-a-midi-i-want-why-are-they-all-so#post-340047 Wed, 27 Apr 2011 03:01:37 +0000 Barbara 340047@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOVE that dress, Sarah. I like the slinky fit.</p> <p>But you're right about the price. I've noticed that JCP and Macy's have a slew of dresses in ALL lengths. Time to shop! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finally-a-midi-i-want-why-are-they-all-so#post-340017 Wed, 27 Apr 2011 02:09:25 +0000 bella 340017@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If anyone can pull off this dress, it's you Sarah! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finally-a-midi-i-want-why-are-they-all-so#post-339926 Tue, 26 Apr 2011 23:07:01 +0000 londonkiwi (now back in NZ) 339926@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fantastic dress!</p> <p>As I am sure that you know Twenty8Twelve is Sienna Miller's boutique range. It is carried by lots of UK based shops so it might be worth having a hunt on this side of the virtual pond.</p> <p>I do wonder how popular this trend will be and if it stays "high fashion" rather than "high/main street" that there will be a few in the sales. Sice you have a 6 month summer you may do well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finally-a-midi-i-want-why-are-they-all-so#post-339823 Tue, 26 Apr 2011 19:35:11 +0000 Jonesy 339823@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the dress is gorgeous! Love that print. I wonder: if you are liking the column silhouette (vs. the fit-and-flare), maybe you could find a maxi and have it chopped off into a midi? There sure are lots of maxi dresses around, so you might be able to find one that's relatively inexpensive. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finally-a-midi-i-want-why-are-they-all-so#post-339804 Tue, 26 Apr 2011 19:10:53 +0000 Anonymous 339804@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it's so funny that all of a sudden mid-length skirts and dresses are *all the rage*! I've been buying them for years because I never wear anything that is above the knee, and I get all of mine thrifting for a mere few bucks! My closets full of them! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finally-a-midi-i-want-why-are-they-all-so#post-339779 Tue, 26 Apr 2011 18:33:18 +0000 Debbie 339779@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sarah-Macy's had some in the store that were reasonable. Angie said on a thread of mine that she is putting one in the store. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finally-a-midi-i-want-why-are-they-all-so#post-339714 Tue, 26 Apr 2011 16:23:07 +0000 Jenna S. 339714@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the print on that dress and could definitely picture someone pairing it with a denim jacket and chunky nude heels for spring. I'm still extremely anxious about the midi trend, though, since I'm only 5'2". It's one of those trends I might need to warm up to in regards to applying it to my own closet, but I admire it on others. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/finally-a-midi-i-want-why-are-they-all-so#post-339710 Tue, 26 Apr 2011 16:20:14 +0000 Sarah 339710@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The idea of a midi appeals to me, but the only dresses I like are far out of my price range.<br /> Has anyone found some good ones?<br /> I adore this one<br /> <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/twenty8twelve-valora-printed-jersey-dress/3184512?origin=category&#038;resultback=1188" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/tw.....tback=1188</a> </p>
