It looks great with the dress and pants. I can't wait to see more ways you style it. I haven't had an opportunity to wear mine yet, but will post when I do. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-blouson-dress/page/2#post-1837705 Sat, 19 Aug 2017 12:28:03 +0000 Brooklyn 1837705@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congratulations on the new job!<br /> Love your outfit!

I had tucked in the dress into my pants...a bit of a fail </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-blouson-dress#post-1837556 Fri, 18 Aug 2017 18:52:48 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 1837556@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congrats on the new job!</p> <p>If the blouson part of the top is supposed to end right at your waist, highlighting that your body goes "in" there, then the rushing has to extend above the waist a little bit, doesn't it? In any even, I think this looks good on you.&nbsp;</p> <p>What's going on in #5? Is that the dress all tied up somehow, or a similar top? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-blouson-dress#post-1837496 Fri, 18 Aug 2017 15:36:18 +0000 Angie 1837496@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p> I know all too well how to fit dainty shoulders with long necks and a not so full bust. </p> <p>*smiling*</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-blouson-dress#post-1837493 Fri, 18 Aug 2017 15:27:47 +0000 Anonymous 1837493@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sigh, yah, I kind of didn't have high hopes for the larger size!<br /> You know my shoulders well! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-blouson-dress#post-1837492 Fri, 18 Aug 2017 15:27:26 +0000 Angie 1837492@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your plc with the new jacket -<b> KILLER.&nbsp;</b> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-blouson-dress#post-1837491 Fri, 18 Aug 2017 15:26:36 +0000 Angie 1837491@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This size here fits your shoulders very nicely though. The model has very broad square shoulders so she has to go up a size. Like me - you are narrow shouldered. This fits.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-blouson-dress#post-1837490 Fri, 18 Aug 2017 15:26:10 +0000 Anonymous 1837490@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lol, ok, good to know Angie!<br /> More info: I chose the dress to go with this AWESOME maximal jacket that karen13 also has.<br /> I was confident they look good together but I wanted feedback on whether it looked good on it's own. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-blouson-dress#post-1837488 Fri, 18 Aug 2017 15:22:17 +0000 Angie 1837488@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Interesting. FWIW, I don't see a size problem in these pics. Does it feel small, Smittie?&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-blouson-dress#post-1837483 Fri, 18 Aug 2017 15:12:47 +0000 Anonymous 1837483@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you all for the feedback! It hadn't even occurred to me to size up! I will try that. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-blouson-dress#post-1837468 Fri, 18 Aug 2017 14:18:23 +0000 Bijou 1837468@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the colour and also think it looks lovely with your jeans untucked. If you want it to fit like the model, I would size up - although I really like the current dress with jeans. Would you like to wear it as a dress?</p> <p>Congratulations on the new job! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-blouson-dress#post-1837459 Fri, 18 Aug 2017 13:58:03 +0000 Suz 1837459@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congratulations on your new job! That's wonderful.&nbsp;</p> <p>I love the dress on you but might like to see a size up for comparison.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-blouson-dress#post-1837401 Fri, 18 Aug 2017 10:17:45 +0000 Style Fan 1837401@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congratulations of your new job!&nbsp; I like the dress on you but I wonder what the next size up would be like.&nbsp; The colour is gorgeous. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-blouson-dress#post-1837397 Fri, 18 Aug 2017 09:06:33 +0000 The Cat 1837397@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you look fine. Actually, I think the dress look better and more chic on you than on the model. Your outfit has nice proportions. The colour of the dress/tunic is beautiful. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-blouson-dress#post-1837211 Thu, 17 Aug 2017 18:32:38 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1837211@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like it on you! My question would be whether you'll want to wear it without pants, if so, you might want to try it that way to see how you like it.<br />Congratulations on the new job! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-blouson-dress#post-1837164 Thu, 17 Aug 2017 16:39:37 +0000 Anonymous 1837164@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congrats on your new job! &nbsp;I like the dress but would like to see it a bit looser and longer on you - i.e. a size up. &nbsp;Not that it looks too small, per se, but it looks like it needs more movement. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-blouson-dress#post-1837137 Thu, 17 Aug 2017 14:39:47 +0000 Angie 1837137@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You're a writer, Smittie. That explains your eloquence - (go back to my Grit thread when you have a moment - I replied to you).&nbsp;</p> <p>Thanks for the extra pics. LOVE it untucked in #3. Killer. Here's the Find.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-blouson-dress#post-1837059 Thu, 17 Aug 2017 08:22:08 +0000 Jane 1837059@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely colour and style.

I wonder if the model is wearing a size up so that the waist hits lower and the dress appears longer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-blouson-dress#post-1837006 Thu, 17 Aug 2017 03:02:13 +0000 Jaime 1837006@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congratulations on the new job!

It <i>is</i> weird how much shorter that dress is than on the model</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-blouson-dress#post-1836990 Thu, 17 Aug 2017 01:59:04 +0000 Anonymous 1836990@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have two dresses with this waist treatment and find them fussy but don t think taking out the elastic will look right either, so have left them. My actual waist is high so I don't mind that the top part blouses out and fixes proportions. Before children, when I had a pear shape, a dress like this helped balance top and bottom by adding more volume on top. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-blouson-dress#post-1836984 Thu, 17 Aug 2017 01:29:06 +0000 anne 1836984@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>But that's not fitting the model on the waist either. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-blouson-dress#post-1836983 Thu, 17 Aug 2017 01:25:13 +0000 Anonymous 1836983@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Anne, the dress is supposed to hit at the waist, I think. </p> <p>It's odd that the dress is so much longer on the model than on me. I'm not wearing a petite.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-blouson-dress#post-1836976 Thu, 17 Aug 2017 01:05:46 +0000 anne 1836976@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congrats of the job. I can see the appeal of the dress. Where's the waistline "supposed" to hit. Is it a dropped waist? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-blouson-dress#post-1836972 Thu, 17 Aug 2017 00:53:27 +0000 Anonymous 1836972@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I do technical writing! </p> <p>I've added a few pics.<br /> Maybe the proportions are better in the pants pictures?</p> <p>I got this at WHBM, and I could always look for a top in this colour instead. </p>
