I wonder how the sleeves will be on short me? The sizing is small and I had order a large to accommodate my bust:). Did you post yours when you purchased? I must go back and have a look:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kimono-jacket-possible-purchase#post-1042044 Tue, 01 Oct 2013 01:16:37 +0000 Suz 1042044@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The navy one is lovely. I didn't end up keeping mine, because I felt the arms were too long on me -- I felt overwhelmed by it. But that is partly because I could not fill it out. It's silk, which is a really nice feature. The lining is not silk but the outer fabric is just stunning.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kimono-jacket-possible-purchase#post-1042033 Tue, 01 Oct 2013 01:03:20 +0000 Deborah 1042033@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok bit the bullet! Bought both:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kimono-jacket-possible-purchase#post-1042003 Tue, 01 Oct 2013 00:30:52 +0000 Deborah 1042003@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks again for your thoughts. I have had another very close look at both (on line) and I think I might order both. I can see both working for me. The white one would be good for casual, over jeans, boyfriend shorts, tank dresses etc and could also go to work. The navy one has a bit more drama and again could go to the office and could be a good going out piece. The neckline is sits quite "flat" so i think its ok. I try very hard not OD on trend items but I think two Kimono jackets would be ok? The Navy one is chiffon! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kimono-jacket-possible-purchase#post-1041744 Mon, 30 Sep 2013 16:13:39 +0000 Thistle 1041744@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another vote for the navy. I feel like the color pattern will work well into your wardrobe, as does the artistic "swing" of the jacket. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kimono-jacket-possible-purchase#post-1041707 Mon, 30 Sep 2013 15:25:52 +0000 Carole 1041707@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Can totally see you in the first one. Chic! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kimono-jacket-possible-purchase#post-1041700 Mon, 30 Sep 2013 15:17:34 +0000 jurocha 1041700@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I guess the navy Zara one is a favorite from a few fabbers already. I am not sure about kimonos... but if it must be, my vote goes to the navy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kimono-jacket-possible-purchase#post-1041687 Mon, 30 Sep 2013 14:51:43 +0000 Glory 1041687@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think this is the navy one that I ordered in spring. It is lovely IRL but I ended up returning it because I did not like the gather across the back. I just wanted to mention it because it is hard to see that in the picture - however not 100% it is the same kimono. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kimono-jacket-possible-purchase#post-1041662 Mon, 30 Sep 2013 13:57:05 +0000 Deborah 1041662@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks so much for your feedback ladies. </p> <p>Nancy, thanks for your input. I am actually edging towards the white one. I might PM you with so e more questions given your experience.</p> <p>Natalie, I liked how that looked on you and thanks for the visual, it really helped. The kimono neckline is not always my best and I am now concerned that with my generous bust the navy kimono might. It be the best look.</p> <p>Shannon, thank you! That white one is the one I am more inclined towards. I like the neckline better and that it looks like a softer drape to the fabric. I am also keen on going for something lighter in colour:). </p> <p>Caro the white one is a polyester.</p> <p>I might sleep on it before I make a decision. I know I can return but I find it a hassle when I am ordering from o/s.</p> <p>Thanks again your wisdom is so appreciated.</p> <p>xxxDeborah </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kimono-jacket-possible-purchase#post-1041638 Mon, 30 Sep 2013 12:48:25 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1041638@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can definitely see a kimono working with your style Deb - you wearing anything drapey so incredibly well.</p> <p>I love the blue for you but I also know you look incredible in both white and coral, represented in the second kimono you show. If possible, I would try both and see how they work with your wardrobe. I do think the white/coral would be lovely for summer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kimono-jacket-possible-purchase#post-1041602 Mon, 30 Sep 2013 10:51:44 +0000 lyn67 1041602@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The navy of course, it really&nbsp;screams your name, Deb!:-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kimono-jacket-possible-purchase#post-1041572 Mon, 30 Sep 2013 05:15:51 +0000 deb 1041572@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Navy, here. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kimono-jacket-possible-purchase#post-1041563 Mon, 30 Sep 2013 04:40:32 +0000 goldenpig 1041563@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the navy one for you Deborah!

It will be beautiful with your black and with white pants for spring. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kimono-jacket-possible-purchase#post-1041440 Sun, 29 Sep 2013 23:02:14 +0000 Caro in Oz 1041440@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them both but would need to see them on The navy would be easier to style imo&nbsp;but if the lighter one worked it could make a simple summer pants &amp; tee outfit really amazing. Are they silk Deborah? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kimono-jacket-possible-purchase#post-1041391 Sun, 29 Sep 2013 21:40:54 +0000 JulieJohn 1041391@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love them for you, can you please get both? If not, I vote for #1, it's more dramatic than #2. A kimono is a great choice for your style, a no-brainer, if I may be so unromantic.</p> <p>Were your ears burning recently? On Saturday I channeled your style to buy a lovely black drapey cardigan. I will post photos tomorrow. Thank you in advance for allowing me to borrow your flowing artistic style. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kimono-jacket-possible-purchase#post-1041377 Sun, 29 Sep 2013 21:25:35 +0000 Lyn D. 1041377@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well Deborah, you know I would love to know I am not the only one wearing a kimono jacket around here!<br />My gifted one is an absolute dream to wear- soft and comfy and perfect for&nbsp;a little&nbsp;extra warmth and coverage of the arms.<br />I would prefer the navy one for you. It looks a little more your dressier style. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kimono-jacket-possible-purchase#post-1041372 Sun, 29 Sep 2013 21:21:41 +0000 Ariadne 1041372@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the navy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kimono-jacket-possible-purchase#post-1041345 Sun, 29 Sep 2013 20:32:51 +0000 catgirl 1041345@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Not very original - I'm going with navy too.

I actually bought that one on eBay and was really disappointed with the fabrication. It was flimsy and just didn't hang right. Fortunately, the eBay seller accepted returns.</p> <p>The navy one is a real winner, though. I love mine. Beautiful fabrication and design. It runs small though, so size up. I'm usually a small but I take mediums in Zara jackets. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kimono-jacket-possible-purchase#post-1041197 Sun, 29 Sep 2013 15:08:29 +0000 donnat 1041197@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the navy one would work into you wardrobe perfectly. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kimono-jacket-possible-purchase#post-1041165 Sun, 29 Sep 2013 13:40:04 +0000 Anonymous 1041165@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm such an enabler, but I could really see you work both well into your wardrobe.
