I particularly like the AT one because it would look really great with a striped T underneath. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/helmut-drapey-dress-at-nordstrom-for-you-suz-what-do-we-think#post-708281 Fri, 31 Aug 2012 14:57:17 +0000 Diana 708281@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it, but I think we've determined that what works for me is not going to work for Suz.... </p> <p>I am considering ordering this similar (and cheaper) dress from AT - wish I could find it in a store to try on:<br /> <a href="http://www.anntaylor.com/ann/product/AT-Apparel/AT-Dresses/Sleeveless-Goddess-Dress/281505?colorExplode=false&#038;skuId=11536239&#038;catid=cata000012&#038;productPageType=search&#038;defaultColor=6600" rel="nofollow">http://www.anntaylor.com/ann/p.....Color=6600</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/helmut-drapey-dress-at-nordstrom-for-you-suz-what-do-we-think#post-708262 Fri, 31 Aug 2012 14:43:09 +0000 nancylee 708262@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sorry I missed weighing in on your thread, Suz. By the time I found it there were so many responses I decided not to pile on! As a result, I missed out on your conclusions about needing structure.</p> <p>I'll keep my eyes open for you, though. I totally get your desire for something more arty/architectural since I'm feeling the same directional pull.</p> <p>I did pre-order this Helmut dress just out of curiosity. It might be a disaster, or it might be fabulous! We'll see... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/helmut-drapey-dress-at-nordstrom-for-you-suz-what-do-we-think#post-708254 Fri, 31 Aug 2012 14:38:17 +0000 rute 708254@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the fit, the color!

The pieces I picked yesterday were too "romantic" and "round" in shape to work. I've determined once and for all that I need more structure. </p> <p>In this case, the overall looseness, plus the V neck, would totally overwhelm me. Sad to say... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/helmut-drapey-dress-at-nordstrom-for-you-suz-what-do-we-think#post-708248 Fri, 31 Aug 2012 14:34:20 +0000 nancylee 708248@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I stumbled across this drapey dress (available for pre-order and relatively affordable) at Nordstrom and thought of Suz and her desire for something arty and drapey.</p> <p>What do you think? I'm kinda liking it.</p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/helmut-dolman-featherweight-jersey-dress/3355839?origin=shoppingbag" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/he.....hoppingbag</a> </p>
