Sarah (sarbear1121) has this dress in black. She quite likes it, and it's very flattering on her. She is an hourglass than tends toward a pretty pear. I have other J. Crew dresses in that cotton sateen fabric, and it's not wrinkle free (like if you're sitting for a long time, you might get "lap" creases), but it's not any more wrinkly than an other cotton sateen fabric. Does that make sense?</p> <p>I've tried it on, and in my experience, it runs true to size (for J. Crew). So whatever size you normally take in J. Crew, I'd go with that. If you are between sizes, go with the larger size. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/j-crew-daphne-dress#post-81221 Thu, 23 Jul 2009 20:45:33 +0000 cyan45 81221@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>ana, here it is:</p> <p><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/J-CREW-SATEEN-DAPHNE-DRESS-SIZE-4_W0QQitemZ330346213437QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUS_CSA_WC_Dresses?hash=item4cea2b303d&#038;_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&#038;_trkparms=65%3A12" rel="nofollow">http://cgi.ebay.com/J-CREW-SAT.....ms=65%3A12</a>|66%3A2|39%3A1|72%3A1205|293%3A1|294%3A50 </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/j-crew-daphne-dress#post-81218 Thu, 23 Jul 2009 20:39:26 +0000 Ana 81218@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Do you have a link to the dress? I can't remember the names of all the stuff, but I've probably seen the dress and could give you some information on it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/j-crew-daphne-dress#post-81197 Thu, 23 Jul 2009 19:09:29 +0000 cyan45 81197@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>anyone out there with the cotton sateen shift dress:</p> <p>1) does it wrinkle easily?<br /> 2) can it be cleaned in the wash, or dry clean only?</p> <p>i'm thinking about buying one off ebay (no longer in stores/online), but want to double<br /> check before i take the plunge.</p> <p>thanks </p>
