Love the TT, though! I have a skirt by TT that I really love; I think the brand loves curves more than AS.&nbsp;</p> <p>(also, I'm the same height and a good 25 lbs heavier than you now after fussing with meds... you don't look big!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-allsaints-dresses/page/2#post-1412434 Wed, 17 Dec 2014 16:09:20 +0000 AviaMariah 1412434@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I didn't read the other responses and I was just ho hum looking through the photos until I got to the Trina Turk Dress. &nbsp;It's not as "cool" of a style as the Allsaints dresses but that color is stunning on you! &nbsp;So I would go with that one as long as the fit it ok. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-allsaints-dresses/page/2#post-1412116 Tue, 16 Dec 2014 22:45:31 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1412116@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Denise, I'm late to comment, but I just love 5 on you. It looks like a perfect fit. I mean, perfect! And it looks so elegant and sophisticated on you. Love it with those pumps. <br />I am a fan of the AllSaints aesthetic but am not in love with any of these dresses on you. I like the cream and olive colors on you. I want #1 to work, but just am not crazy about how it drapes. It's a good idea to try a size up, just to see. FWIW, AllSaints does nothing for my ego, either. I took a much, much bigger size (3 sizes up) from even the larger of my two usual sizes in other brands. And that IS calculating from the "US" size, already. So you just can't pay any heed to the numbers issue. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-allsaints-dresses#post-1412093 Tue, 16 Dec 2014 22:02:40 +0000 texstyle 1412093@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Funny how first impressions can change. After coming back to see what everyone thought and what you thought, I see the potential issue with #1. I wonder if a hidden snap could be added? But for me, if I have to do too much for an item of clothing to work, I usually end up regretting the purchase. I do have one black top that I just use fashion tape to secure so it doesn't flash and that one is still okay with me but not a favorite. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-allsaints-dresses#post-1412070 Tue, 16 Dec 2014 21:27:14 +0000 Caro in Oz 1412070@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Late to this but just wanted to say it's not you - you are gorgeous. The dresses are the difficult ones &nbsp;Agreeing with Angie - the purple dress is very elegant - can't wait to see how you make it yours. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-allsaints-dresses#post-1412034 Tue, 16 Dec 2014 20:11:07 +0000 unfrumped 1412034@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p># 5 is still the fabbest, and #1 looks like you and worth keeping if it feels and fits right. I don't think the olive is too harsh--and it pairs&nbsp; nicely with tans and creams or brighter summer colors. The pale ones remind me of hospital gowns! ( You'd look like the fabbest patient, though). Who'da thunk? Glad you tried them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-allsaints-dresses#post-1412025 Tue, 16 Dec 2014 19:57:36 +0000 Janet 1412025@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Denise, it is not you AT ALL. You look amazing -- you look how I *wish* I did (yeah, I've got the 3" extra inches in height, but also the 30 extra pounds, about 10 of which I'd rather not have).&nbsp;I think you are totally correct about the cut of these dresses. They don't get you.&nbsp;</p> <p>The TT really does look nice on you. I am curious to see your styling of it, because I'm betting you can make it look rockin'! I'm thinking funky peep-toe booties, leather jacket, or a great bracelet... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-allsaints-dresses#post-1412024 Tue, 16 Dec 2014 19:54:35 +0000 Mia 1412024@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Late here but I love #1. &nbsp;Looks like you could style it so many ways and it absolutely makes your eyes and face "pop". &nbsp;You look fab.</p> <p>I know the purple one was budget friendly so maybe keep it too?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-allsaints-dresses#post-1412011 Tue, 16 Dec 2014 19:34:39 +0000 catgirl 1412011@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, I really thought these would work but I prefer the purple. AS fit can be really bizarre - I tried a couple at the store and felt they had no leeway. It's like they were made for a specific person (not me!) and not for a lot of body types. They also ran small. Too bad because I love the idea for you. It's not you AT ALL! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-allsaints-dresses#post-1411990 Tue, 16 Dec 2014 18:59:13 +0000 CocoLion 1411990@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks everyone. &nbsp;I tend to agree -- I was disappointed in these dresses. &nbsp;I think they need quite a bit of fuss to make them hang just so. &nbsp;Playing with different sizes, pressing, and while you're wearing it, making sure it doesn't flash your chest. &nbsp;I would have to tack the Isa dress so I don't flash one entire breast! &nbsp;It comes open that easily.</p> <p>The last two dresses hang completely differently from the picture. &nbsp;I do think these dresses are made for a long-waisted, straight built IT. &nbsp;I think all three of them are too long in the waist, making them pull around the hip even more. &nbsp;I could try the first dress in a bigger size. &nbsp;Under the arm, quite a bit of bra was already showing in this size (a six, Euro 38 UK 10). &nbsp;However, to get the dress to hang better around the hips, I might just try the next size up, if it's available.</p> <p>I think I missed the return window on the TT dress, good thing you all like it, I like it too. &nbsp;I have some ideas how to make it more modern. </p> <p>ETA -- Just ordered the Isa dress in a size 8, it promises next day shipping through Amazon Prime but in my experience it takes about 3 or 4 days to my address. &nbsp;I think I'm just going to return the other three dresses, I didn't show you the back side of the Isa dress but it looks like I need more room there.</p> <p>Good grief this brand does nothing to stroke my ego, I mean I'm 5'4" and 113-115 lbs and I thought you all were very kind not to point out how big these make me look! &nbsp;I'm probably too curvy for this brand but we'll see how the bigger size works.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-allsaints-dresses#post-1411951 Tue, 16 Dec 2014 17:57:56 +0000 lyn67 1411951@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love 1 and 5. 5 is a a bit conventional, but nr 1 is Oh, wow-and to my eyes suits your rebelious persona better, and I like it on you even better then&nbsp;on the model!&nbsp;I think the color is also great(if olive), it can be dressed up with a bit of bling (or say with a red sandal, or animal pump?) and will surely be a nice change in all the sea of blacks, there. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-allsaints-dresses#post-1411938 Tue, 16 Dec 2014 17:49:33 +0000 Janet 1411938@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>No, rachy, I actually agree, and I generally like the Allsaints aesthetic. I was feeling like such a spanner in this thread.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-allsaints-dresses#post-1411932 Tue, 16 Dec 2014 17:48:02 +0000 rachylou 1411932@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really love the purple on you. Everybody is looking good in purple today.</p> <p>Ok. Somebody is gonna come get me for saying this: but I think all the All Saints dresses look like just a mess of cloth. They're not as clever as they think they are.</p> <p>Right. Go ahead. Slap me with the wet noodle. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-allsaints-dresses#post-1411885 Tue, 16 Dec 2014 16:03:36 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1411885@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was planning to be passing an Allsaints store on Thursday or Friday and to try on the Halcion dress. Which is violet and has less folding in the front. It's so hard to tell how Allsaints stuff is going to fit when it has all the draping going on. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-allsaints-dresses#post-1411882 Tue, 16 Dec 2014 15:49:08 +0000 Anonymous 1411882@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My favorite by a mile is #5. So flattering and even sexy in a lady-like way. It seems like a classic that won't date. My second choice is #1. I think it is the length and that it seems to have more structure than the other new ones. You are slim and maybe draping a whole dress is not the best look for you. I know that I can't do a draped dress, thinking of the dozens I tried looking for a Mother of Groom one. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-allsaints-dresses#post-1411880 Tue, 16 Dec 2014 15:47:30 +0000 Beth Ann 1411880@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OK, missed the earlier threads, but I gather this is a dress for a cruise, yes?</p> <p>I adore the TT purple -- it's a gorgeous cut and color on you.&nbsp; Of course, it's not your typical style, but only you can determine whether that's a good thing (a pleasant outlier) or a bad thing (wearing someone else's clothes)!&nbsp; #1 is also fab, and very much is your core style, but doesn't read quite as dressy, perhaps. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-allsaints-dresses#post-1411874 Tue, 16 Dec 2014 15:40:46 +0000 carambola 1411874@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The Trina Turk is so simple and chic on you! I like the Isa, but I see what Janet described and wonder if trying a size up might make the asymmetrical hem hang better and look more intentional. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-allsaints-dresses#post-1411873 Tue, 16 Dec 2014 15:38:32 +0000 Suz 1411873@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it's length, cut, and colour all combined on that purple one. It's truly flattering.&nbsp;</p> <p>Maybe dresses don't have to be avant garde. Maybe a dress can just be a dress?&nbsp;</p> <p>Or maybe that's just my own modern classic preferences burning through.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-allsaints-dresses#post-1411870 Tue, 16 Dec 2014 15:31:11 +0000 Angie 1411870@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Am I crazy that I still like the purple sheath #5&nbsp;best? It's the length. Just. So. Elegant.&nbsp;</p> <p>Next I like #1. Is it a black or olive dress? Great with the tan booties. xo&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-allsaints-dresses#post-1411858 Tue, 16 Dec 2014 15:19:46 +0000 Classically Casual 1411858@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a small thought. Over the last couple of weeks, I've browsed through some of the "cruise wear" collections that are about to be released. They mainly are separates. Given your casual lifestyle the rest of the year, maybe you don't need to invest in dresses, but could put together a dressy seperates<br /> capsule that could carry over to your ranch life? Just a thought, and carry on with the dresses if they're the best option for you.</p> <p>At any rate, I'm envious of your upcoming trip, hope you and your mom have a wonderful time. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-allsaints-dresses#post-1411840 Tue, 16 Dec 2014 15:02:34 +0000 Missey 1411840@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love #1 and #2 on you.&nbsp; So so so much! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-allsaints-dresses#post-1411838 Tue, 16 Dec 2014 14:55:22 +0000 texstyle 1411838@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love #1 on you!&nbsp; I also like #5 and I think #6 is good for the cruise too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-allsaints-dresses#post-1411828 Tue, 16 Dec 2014 14:43:10 +0000 jackiec 1411828@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh so fun! I am agreeing that my fav is the Isa. Having said that, when we see all the dresses in a row, I like the Trina Turk best for the cruise! But the Isa is very "you" and I like the colour on you, plus the pairing with the boots. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-allsaints-dresses#post-1411816 Tue, 16 Dec 2014 14:17:45 +0000 Sara L. 1411816@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like the first dress in the olive green. I like the boots you've paired it with. I don't like the white ones as well. The last two colored dresses are both very flattering on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-allsaints-dresses#post-1411808 Tue, 16 Dec 2014 14:01:27 +0000 Janet 1411808@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ah darn, I wrote a reply and then lost it. </p> <p>I love the white tones on you, but neither of those dresses are fab enough for you -- they don't drape well enough. The first one is better, but I'm still not wowed. See how in the stock photo, the hem is clearly asymmetrical, and the gathers at the hip drape and create a diagonal line? I like that effect, but it doesn't look like the fit in real life works the same. The gathers are creating horizontal wrinkles across your hips, which makes it look like it's pulling, to my eye. Keep in mind I'm really sensitive to things like the appearance of pulling across the hips because of my own figure issues. Maybe Allsaints cuts for very IT shapes (wouldn't surprise me, because i've never found anything there that works for me). If this doesn't bother you, and you love the dress, feel free to ignore me! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-allsaints-dresses#post-1411800 Tue, 16 Dec 2014 13:44:29 +0000 Neelie 1411800@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love 2, 3, and 6 the best. &nbsp;Not sure about the colour of #1, it's a bit draining. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-allsaints-dresses#post-1411798 Tue, 16 Dec 2014 13:41:51 +0000 Jaime 1411798@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Also like the Isa best and Nise second best. I like the purple but it is a different kind of thing altogether.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-allsaints-dresses#post-1411791 Tue, 16 Dec 2014 13:29:31 +0000 Suz 1411791@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the Isa. But for the cruise with mom I am not so sure; it depends on how you accessorize. It's the colour I wonder about. But it is a lovely dress on you and if you would be likely to wear it afterwards, go to it!</p> <p>I still think the purple one is most flattering on you. Absolutely stunning.&nbsp;Although we discussed last time whether it seemed "cruise-like" enough.&nbsp;</p> <p>I really don't care for the way the other dresses are draping, although it might be useful to see the Nise pressed. OTOH, if it crumples up like this in transit, is it the right dress to bring in the first place?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-allsaints-dresses#post-1411779 Tue, 16 Dec 2014 12:49:08 +0000 missvee 1411779@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the Isa - great shape, colour and length. This looks like something you could wear dressed up or down.<br /> The second one seems too full at the front, and the third one may be a touch short. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-allsaints-dresses#post-1411764 Tue, 16 Dec 2014 11:08:38 +0000 Astrid 1411764@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like #1 the best from the new ones. I also still like the Trina Turk. </p>
