Hard to get a perfect fit post-partum...may be best to pass for now but make a mental note to get something with those colours this season. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-angies-pick-suzi-chin-print-faux-wrap-dress#post-906357 Fri, 12 Apr 2013 22:52:16 +0000 Jewell 906357@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Lookin' good Momma! I'm so glad to see you still posting regularly. I was afraid I'd missed my chance to congratulate you. CONGRATS!<br /><br />I agree with everyone else. I like the dress, but it isn't my favorite of the ones pictured. If you really like it then I vote for trying the size 4. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-angies-pick-suzi-chin-print-faux-wrap-dress#post-906334 Fri, 12 Apr 2013 22:16:20 +0000 goldenpig 906334@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Thanks everyone for the advice! I see that you all were not totally thrilled with it either so my feelings were confirmed. It's a nice dress, and if I didn't already have similar dresses I'd probably keep it. If I loved the print and colors more I'd try sizing down to a 4, but I ended up returning it. I realized that I liked the ones already in my closet more than this one--the colors are a little lighter/less saturated/more pastel than I normally like. Angie, you are right that the neckline is too wide. Glory, I think you're right that the bust is too loose rather than tight. And Jamie, sorry you had the same fit issues. I see on the online reviews that someone else had the same issues with the wide neckline.<br /><br />When I went to go return the dress, I stopped by J Crew and ordered one of those tuxedo shirts Angie recommended, so let's hope that will work out better! Thanks again everyone!<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-angies-pick-suzi-chin-print-faux-wrap-dress#post-906245 Fri, 12 Apr 2013 20:19:15 +0000 Jamie 906245@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Lovely colors on you! &nbsp;Lovely style for you! &nbsp;But I agree with the others, it's not a great fit. &nbsp;In fact, I ordered this one myself and just got it today. &nbsp;I slipped it on and had some similar fit issues.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-angies-pick-suzi-chin-print-faux-wrap-dress#post-906157 Fri, 12 Apr 2013 18:42:41 +0000 Janet 906157@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ It's a really nice dress (I saw it in person the other day when I stopped in to make a return), but I don't think the fit is as nice as your others. Sizing down may help.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-angies-pick-suzi-chin-print-faux-wrap-dress#post-906153 Fri, 12 Apr 2013 18:38:50 +0000 rachylou 906153@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Omg, I love love LOVE the pattern on this dress. This kills me, because I don't know if I love the cut and gather. It falls really nicely on you right now, but I do worry that it looks big, esp. in the shoulders.<br /><br />But omg, I love the pattern.<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-angies-pick-suzi-chin-print-faux-wrap-dress#post-906143 Fri, 12 Apr 2013 18:30:54 +0000 Echo 906143@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I like the new one, but I don't think it compares to #8 (my favourite!) and #9. So it is fabulous, but probably not quite as great as what you already own. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-angies-pick-suzi-chin-print-faux-wrap-dress#post-906128 Fri, 12 Apr 2013 18:02:51 +0000 Thistle 906128@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I would size down to try it. This looks so fab on you!&nbsp; I was pondering trying it, but I knew the colors weren't a good fit for me.&nbsp; They certainly are for you, though!&nbsp;If the fit works, this would be on par with the other dresses.<br /><br />If it doesn't work out, see if they can put the notes on a giftcard for you. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-angies-pick-suzi-chin-print-faux-wrap-dress#post-906076 Fri, 12 Apr 2013 16:48:46 +0000 Eliza 906076@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ You are looking great and so is baby. I am a huge fan of number 8 with number 6 coming in right behind it. Agree that the new one as fitted doesn't measure up. But what is it about #8 that is perfection? The fit, the print, the cut all are phenomenal on you.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-angies-pick-suzi-chin-print-faux-wrap-dress#post-906030 Fri, 12 Apr 2013 15:15:34 +0000 Angie 906030@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I also think that the fit is too wide on top (neckline and arms). Size down if you are curious, or just return :)<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-angies-pick-suzi-chin-print-faux-wrap-dress#post-906007 Fri, 12 Apr 2013 14:47:22 +0000 Glory 906007@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ GP you can wear a wrap like nobody's business! And you know how much I want to cuddle that wee accessory in #7.<br />I love the print for you but the fit is not as nice as the other 3 (6,7,8) IMHO. And, I think the fit will change again over the next month. I know you mentioned it is straining at the cleavage but it looks loose to me in that area. Perhaps consider a size down. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-angies-pick-suzi-chin-print-faux-wrap-dress#post-905999 Fri, 12 Apr 2013 14:43:20 +0000 rae 905999@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I think try the 4. I don't think it's on par with your current ones as-is. A tighter fit miiiight emphasize the tummy rouching, which I think would actually be nicer and more like your other dresses. Or maybe not, but it's worth a try. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-angies-pick-suzi-chin-print-faux-wrap-dress#post-905956 Fri, 12 Apr 2013 13:29:48 +0000 Sara L. 905956@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ From what I can see, the dress seems to fit you well.&nbsp; I agree with dressing the body you have now because it might be awhile before those last few pounds come off.&nbsp; My motto was "nine months on, nine months off" so I didn't feel bad that I didn't lose all the baby weight in 6 weeks like models and celebrities always seem to do.&nbsp; You want something to wear now, but it would be nice if a dress this nice&nbsp;could be worn later too.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-angies-pick-suzi-chin-print-faux-wrap-dress#post-905948 Fri, 12 Apr 2013 13:03:37 +0000 Suz 905948@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Dress is gorgeous but I agree with Joy if the fit is not clear. You don't want to waste the $$$.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-angies-pick-suzi-chin-print-faux-wrap-dress#post-905871 Fri, 12 Apr 2013 11:22:11 +0000 Anonymous 905871@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Natalie, the dress is beautiful but sounds like the fit is tricky. You can have your Nordstrom Notes put on a gift card. Then you don't have a deadline for using them. You can wait until your body shape is more settled. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-angies-pick-suzi-chin-print-faux-wrap-dress#post-905867 Fri, 12 Apr 2013 11:00:11 +0000 Karie 905867@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Are the notes something you have to spend by a certain date or you loose them? If not, I would return the dress now, wait until you loose the baby weight, and either repurchase or buy something else. If you have to spend the notes by a certain date or you&nbsp;really love the print, you could keep it and&nbsp;wear it now but have it altered later.<br /><br />Looking at the pics a second time, I would try on the 4. The 6 looks slightly big on the side to me. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-angies-pick-suzi-chin-print-faux-wrap-dress#post-905818 Fri, 12 Apr 2013 07:57:13 +0000 goldenpig 905818@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Yes Una, that was my concern as well. It feels ever so slightly big, like I might shrink out of it soon. I was thinking of trying the 4, but realistically that might be too small for me now with my tummy. The stitch at the cleavage is under some strain and I can't decide if it's because my bust is bigger from nursing, or the shoulders are falling off because the bust is too loose. Ah, dilemmas! Also, while it's a cool print (almost like a galaxy print), I'm not totally in love with the print/colors the way I am with my other dresses (esp 7 &amp; 9).<br /><br />Thanks Lyn! And Lantana, that is smart advice.<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-angies-pick-suzi-chin-print-faux-wrap-dress#post-905804 Fri, 12 Apr 2013 06:24:56 +0000 Lantana 905804@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ It is a beautiful dress. It might be too big eventually but you need to "shop for the body you have now", so I vote you keep it.<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-angies-pick-suzi-chin-print-faux-wrap-dress#post-905802 Fri, 12 Apr 2013 06:24:20 +0000 Lyn D. 905802@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Just wanted to say that WOW-you are looking so good so early after baby! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-angies-pick-suzi-chin-print-faux-wrap-dress#post-905801 Fri, 12 Apr 2013 06:20:34 +0000 catgirl 905801@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This dress is pretty darn fab on you although I'm not sure I love it just as much as the others you have. You and wrap dresses are a match made in heaven. Of your other dresses 6 and 8 are my faves fo comparison. I worry this one will be too big when you lose those last invisible pounds. How does it feel IRL? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-angies-pick-suzi-chin-print-faux-wrap-dress#post-905791 Fri, 12 Apr 2013 05:35:34 +0000 goldenpig 905791@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I had some Nordstrom's notes to spend so I ordered this <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/suzi-chin-for-maggy-boutique-print-faux-wrap-dress/3450321?origin=keywordsearch&amp;contextualcategoryid=2375500&amp;fashionColor=&amp;resultback=3023" rel="nofollow">Suzi Chin print faux wrap dress</a> that was on Angie's recent pick for dresses. I got it in a size 6, following the size chart. The dress has a stitch holding the cleavage area together and a tie at the side. It's a pull-on style. What do you think of it? I'm also including the other printed faux wrap dresses I own for comparison...I will only keep if this dress is equally as or more fab than the ones I already own.<br /><br />Thanks for your comments and advice!<br />
