Models also don't look great in sexy 50s-style fuller coverage bathing suits, or, IMHO, peplums. I mean they look fine in the latter, but curvier women wear them so much better. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---wrap-dress-showdown#post-839720 Tue, 05 Feb 2013 15:11:53 +0000 Thistle 839720@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks! Being a pear and wanting to be a slim rectangle mos tof my life has definately skewed my view. I am really trying to embrace the body I have and dress it well. Wraps seem to do that for me!</p> <p> I had never really considered wrap anything until YLF. The style never looked all that good on the models, so I stayed away from it. They need curvier models to give us another perspective </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---wrap-dress-showdown#post-839715 Tue, 05 Feb 2013 15:02:50 +0000 Jules 839715@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's true not everyone can wear wrap dresses! Pre ylf, I had a bit of an epiphany when my very tall &amp; slim rectangle friend complimented curvier me in a wrap dress and said "I can't wear them, of course". Because she is one of my most stylish friends I had always admired her look and tried to copy things that didn't work for me, like long necklaces (they sit funny on my chest). Eventually I worked out she wasn't the best inspiration for me because of our different body types, but I saw it as a loss for me ("I can't wear this, I can't wear that..."). Her telling me off-handedly that she couldn't wear a look that worked for me really changed my POV on dressing my body.<br /> Yup thistle, you rock a wrap dress! Enjoy it </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---wrap-dress-showdown#post-839507 Tue, 05 Feb 2013 06:02:24 +0000 jayne 839507@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>another vote for both! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---wrap-dress-showdown#post-839498 Tue, 05 Feb 2013 05:54:56 +0000 Ingunn 839498@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love both on you! If you like them both, they are different enough for keeping. Beautiful silhouette, you look fab! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---wrap-dress-showdown#post-839493 Tue, 05 Feb 2013 05:50:59 +0000 CocoLion 839493@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I prefer the second one. I showed these to my bf and he preferred the second one as well. I don't mind the first one but to him it looked like a bathrobe... "like you're going to bed, with boots on."</p> <p>I thought this was funny. How quickly the male mind goes to the bedroom. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---wrap-dress-showdown#post-839485 Tue, 05 Feb 2013 05:41:44 +0000 Deborah 839485@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just lovely. If you feel good in both Thistle, then I say keep them both. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---wrap-dress-showdown#post-839478 Tue, 05 Feb 2013 05:35:00 +0000 Agnes 839478@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi everyone, I have just joined so that I can tell Thistle how good she looks in a wrap dress. They are both really good on her. cheers, </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---wrap-dress-showdown#post-839476 Tue, 05 Feb 2013 05:27:40 +0000 carolbee 839476@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both look fab, but I'm going against the floe, I prefer #1. If it was me I wouldn't keep both, I would spend the money on another wrap dress that was quite different. But thats me, what about you, do you feel they are too alike? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---wrap-dress-showdown#post-839472 Tue, 05 Feb 2013 05:02:31 +0000 Tina.b 839472@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both of them look fab on you, but #2 is breathtaking. I would keep both if you are able and check if the second one comes in any other prints. Such great pieces for your wardrobe! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---wrap-dress-showdown#post-839469 Tue, 05 Feb 2013 04:48:29 +0000 Anonymous 839469@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These both look great; I would keep the one that is the most "fuss-free". BTW, slips have come a long way. Check out Commando. You might be able to wear one slip instead of a cami and a half slip. You look SO amazing in wrap dresses. Not everyone can wear them, you know. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---wrap-dress-showdown#post-839428 Tue, 05 Feb 2013 03:24:49 +0000 amiable 839428@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, they're both terrific! You look amazing in a wrap dress! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---wrap-dress-showdown#post-839411 Tue, 05 Feb 2013 02:55:02 +0000 Karie 839411@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How are they when standing, sitting, and walking? Which ever one passes these tests, keep that one, and if both pass, keep both! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---wrap-dress-showdown#post-839402 Tue, 05 Feb 2013 02:38:45 +0000 saramir 839402@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great! I love these on you. Something seems off about the first one, though. Not sure if it's just the styling or if it's the color, but, especially next to the black &amp; white one, it's not a 10 for me. The B&amp;W is off the charts though, yay! (a fellow wrap lover) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---wrap-dress-showdown#post-839384 Tue, 05 Feb 2013 02:08:14 +0000 Jules 839384@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I slightly prefer #2 but I wonder if it's because you have your arm slightly lifted so I can really see the waist definition? It's gorgeous on you, wow!<br /> I agree that #2 is probably better for year-round wear, plus I like it better with the black boots. In summer I always wear yoga shorts under wrap dresses in case of wind or my knot coming undone (this happened to me once!). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---wrap-dress-showdown#post-839383 Tue, 05 Feb 2013 02:07:34 +0000 Angie 839383@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Different enough! PLEASE keep both. They are too killer for words. </p> <p>I hereby crown you Queen Wrap Dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---wrap-dress-showdown#post-839351 Tue, 05 Feb 2013 01:36:17 +0000 merwoman 839351@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both look great on you Thistle. I agree that they are very similar - and chances are that you will gravitate to one over the other. I have a wee preference for #2, I like the b/w graphic and it seems to tie better in the front. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---wrap-dress-showdown#post-839314 Tue, 05 Feb 2013 00:58:13 +0000 cinnamon fern 839314@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They are pretty similar ... when I've bought two items this close, I've always ended up liking one better and regretting the second. But YMMV. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---wrap-dress-showdown#post-839302 Tue, 05 Feb 2013 00:43:26 +0000 catgirl 839302@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nothing wrong with duplication if things work! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---wrap-dress-showdown#post-839298 Tue, 05 Feb 2013 00:34:37 +0000 Thistle 839298@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Do you think they look too similar to each other to keep both? I am tempted to keep them both, but just wondering if they are too similar. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---wrap-dress-showdown#post-839296 Tue, 05 Feb 2013 00:33:09 +0000 Caro in Oz 839296@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both look fab - are they both comfy? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---wrap-dress-showdown#post-839292 Tue, 05 Feb 2013 00:28:43 +0000 Anonymous 839292@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They both look great. If you must keep only one, I vote #2. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---wrap-dress-showdown#post-839288 Tue, 05 Feb 2013 00:23:03 +0000 K. Period. 839288@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like both a lot! I think Pic 1 looks more wintry and Pic 2 looks like an easy transition into spring and summer. If you could keep both, I would definitely consider it, because a great wrap dress is a fantastically easy go-to fast fall-back outfit!</p> <p>PS, if really forced to choose, I'd choose Pic 2 because accessories could make it feel appropriate for any season. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---wrap-dress-showdown#post-839279 Tue, 05 Feb 2013 00:15:31 +0000 Aida 839279@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good gravy you look fab in a wrap dress! I have a slight preference for the bigger print black and white dress, but not sure why. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---wrap-dress-showdown#post-839268 Tue, 05 Feb 2013 00:02:18 +0000 Transcona Shannon 839268@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Like others have already said, they both look fantastic on you Thistle. If you can do both, I would keep them both. If only one, I have a slight preference for the black and white one. This style is gorgeous on you BTW! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---wrap-dress-showdown#post-839265 Mon, 04 Feb 2013 23:59:07 +0000 Anonymous 839265@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If you could use both, I'd keep both!
