I would wear this one out on your actual birthday, and then get something else, too, for the party. <br />In other words, I wouldn't let this dress go, because it looks fab on you. But if it's not what you want for the party, you should have what you want for that, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/haute-hippie-dress-advice-please#post-1526157 Fri, 24 Jul 2015 02:29:29 +0000 Adelfa 1526157@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/haute-hippie-dress-advice-please#post-1526151 Fri, 24 Jul 2015 02:03:18 +0000 Sveta 1526151@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It is a bit hard to see from the pictures but I like what I see. It is supposed to fit this way and that's why it is a shorter length - leg &nbsp;display adds structure. You are slim so this is a good style for you if you are at peace with the length. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/haute-hippie-dress-advice-please#post-1526137 Fri, 24 Jul 2015 01:46:43 +0000 catgirl 1526137@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I LOVE this look and shape - it's how I want all my dresses to fit!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/haute-hippie-dress-advice-please#post-1526086 Thu, 23 Jul 2015 23:57:45 +0000 JAileen 1526086@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow! The model must be 7 feet tall, it's so short on her! It looks great on you. How do the studs feel under your arm? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/haute-hippie-dress-advice-please#post-1526079 Thu, 23 Jul 2015 23:48:42 +0000 amiable 1526079@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's gorgeous! &nbsp;I love the shape of it, and the print. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/haute-hippie-dress-advice-please#post-1526073 Thu, 23 Jul 2015 23:43:07 +0000 Echo 1526073@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Interesting that I don't see this dress as shapeless at all. I LOVE shifts and I think you have a fantastic shape in it. The colour and pattern and texture make for fab visual interest and are very flattering on you. I think this dress would be a great choice! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/haute-hippie-dress-advice-please#post-1526070 Thu, 23 Jul 2015 23:37:14 +0000 Banoffi 1526070@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you for the critique and advice. I will get a photo of the dress straight on, as Viva suggested. I think I just need to get used to the idea of a shift since I don't have anything like it in my closet. I like the idea of being able to eat what I want and not worrying about it! Lol </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/haute-hippie-dress-advice-please#post-1526069 Thu, 23 Jul 2015 23:37:02 +0000 Windchime 1526069@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks wonderful on you! It is a terrific choice for your bday party. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/haute-hippie-dress-advice-please#post-1526023 Thu, 23 Jul 2015 22:42:56 +0000 Greyscale 1526023@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it's fantastic and you rock it. I know it takes some mental adjustment to wear a shift dress with its lack of conventional figure flattery, but... when they work, they make it clear that there's a good figure underneath, and that's exactly what's happening with yours. I actually think a sheath can sometimes be more flattering than something fitted, as a result. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/haute-hippie-dress-advice-please#post-1526019 Thu, 23 Jul 2015 22:37:41 +0000 viva 1526019@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The best way to judge would be a dead-on front view. Are you comfortable posting that? It's really the toughest angle for a shift but the best way.</p> <p>That said, I love it on you. I LOVE shifts, so I can already tell you, I am sold. I adore that print -- still have to post pics of the longer dress in this print -- but it's beautiful and special. And a shift isn't meant to hug curves, just to hang. But the really nice thing about that is, you can just wear killer shoes, look fab, and eat all you want. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/haute-hippie-dress-advice-please#post-1526010 Thu, 23 Jul 2015 22:25:10 +0000 Anonymous 1526010@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful print and colours! &nbsp;I can't judge fit on a dress to save my life, so will refrain from comment. &nbsp;The length would be a deal-breaker for me, but otherwise it is stunning. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/haute-hippie-dress-advice-please#post-1526006 Thu, 23 Jul 2015 22:23:58 +0000 AviaMariah 1526006@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it but I love that style of dress. &nbsp;It's very flattering on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/haute-hippie-dress-advice-please#post-1526002 Thu, 23 Jul 2015 22:13:05 +0000 rachylou 1526002@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's spectacular! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/haute-hippie-dress-advice-please#post-1525995 Thu, 23 Jul 2015 22:02:22 +0000 Angie 1525995@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOVE, and I echo Aida. It's a shift - not a sheath dress, and the fit is dead right.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/haute-hippie-dress-advice-please#post-1525965 Thu, 23 Jul 2015 21:38:31 +0000 Peri 1525965@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it looks great on you! I think with that print and embellishment, to have it fitted would just be too much. This keeps it modern and relaxed looking.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/haute-hippie-dress-advice-please#post-1525961 Thu, 23 Jul 2015 21:35:48 +0000 Aida 1525961@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it looks great, as others have said since it's a shift that's just kind of how it will shape. The fit looks good; in photo #2 the armholes look low but that could be a photo angle thing. If you're more comfortable in something that's more hourglassy shaped it might be better to look for something else, but this dress certainly has a very nice breezy yet crisp look to it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/haute-hippie-dress-advice-please#post-1525946 Thu, 23 Jul 2015 21:17:25 +0000 Anonymous 1525946@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's definitely a shift dress, so somewhat shapeless by design, but I think it skims you nicely, and the print/stud combo is divine. &nbsp;It would be a very memorable dress to wear for the occasion.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/haute-hippie-dress-advice-please#post-1525942 Thu, 23 Jul 2015 21:07:16 +0000 catseye 1525942@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it. It is not fitted in the waist if that is what you mean by shapeless. But it has a nice shape on you.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/haute-hippie-dress-advice-please#post-1525937 Thu, 23 Jul 2015 20:50:08 +0000 Staysfit 1525937@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Actually, taking a second look, I'm not sure that could work. I still love the print and color on you. Gorgeous. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/haute-hippie-dress-advice-please#post-1525935 Thu, 23 Jul 2015 20:48:50 +0000 Staysfit 1525935@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The print is stunning, but I think you are correct about it being shapeless. I wonder if a good seamstress could do a small taper, maybe empire type, just under the studs and that would give it a bit of shape. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/haute-hippie-dress-advice-please#post-1525930 Thu, 23 Jul 2015 20:42:43 +0000 Banoffi 1525930@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I received the Haute Hippie studded dress and love the fabric. &nbsp;It's also not as short on me (5'2") as I feared. &nbsp;My concern is that it's too shapeless on me. &nbsp;Thoughts? &nbsp;</p> <p>I'm looking for a dress to wear to my 50th birthday party (birthday next month, party probably in early fall), so I want something fun but flattering. &nbsp;Thanks in advance!</p> </p>
