I look forward to seeing you in the smaller size which I predict will still be roomy and comfortable on you. I am learning to try nearly everything in two or three sizes because it is amazing the difference in size can make even if it is not one's normal size. The last couple of EF items I've bought I've had to size up because the shoulders were cut so narrowly -- and shoulders tend to be one place that are often too big for me. Go figure.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-ef-linen-dress-1#post-1938233 Wed, 18 Jul 2018 02:15:19 +0000 Becky 1938233@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm just not a fan of this look, so I should probably abstain. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-ef-linen-dress-1#post-1938142 Tue, 17 Jul 2018 23:12:29 +0000 JAileen 1938142@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The smaller size just became available and I ordered it. I’ll post comparison pictures when it comes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-ef-linen-dress-1#post-1938140 Tue, 17 Jul 2018 23:02:34 +0000 Brooklyn 1938140@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It does look a similar fit to the model in the body but the sleeves/shoulders on yours look bigger. Have you ironed it yet? If you ironed the dress it might sit better around the shoulders. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-ef-linen-dress-1#post-1938134 Tue, 17 Jul 2018 22:42:08 +0000 bj1111 1938134@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I live your flatforms. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-ef-linen-dress-1#post-1938132 Tue, 17 Jul 2018 22:39:11 +0000 JAileen 1938132@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Here are pictures of the model. Does it look like it fits about the same as on me? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-ef-linen-dress-1#post-1938131 Tue, 17 Jul 2018 22:36:16 +0000 Anonymous 1938131@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>JAileen, I found this dress on the EF site and it looks like the the shoulder seams are over the shoulder point on the model.&nbsp; In fact it looks about the same on you as the model.&nbsp; It is supposed to be a bit oversized and boxy, probably for hot weather.&nbsp; How do you feel about the dress?&nbsp; I passed up a white heavy&nbsp;linen dress for the same type of fit and now, in the heat of summer, I am kicking myself for not getting it.&nbsp; Can you wear this dress without a slip?&nbsp;<br /> Could you wear it as a beach cover-up?</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-ef-linen-dress-1#post-1938122 Tue, 17 Jul 2018 22:09:39 +0000 Janet 1938122@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with the advice to size down again. EF can run really big sometimes. I have worn a XS in them, and we all know I ain’t no XS! ;-)</p> <p>Oops, just saw that the next size down isnt available. Bummer! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-ef-linen-dress-1#post-1938119 Tue, 17 Jul 2018 21:47:01 +0000 Staysfit 1938119@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sigh of relief! Glad you are returning this, it’s too big. I think the neckline is a bit big also. No one mentioned that, but I think that, plus the shoulder fit creates an awkward fit. Sorry, the next size smaller isn’t available. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-ef-linen-dress-1#post-1938102 Tue, 17 Jul 2018 20:22:56 +0000 JAileen 1938102@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All right everyone, thank you for your honest opinions. The size smaller than this one is not available. I’ll return it. Thank you again. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-ef-linen-dress-1#post-1938101 Tue, 17 Jul 2018 20:20:17 +0000 Anonymous 1938101@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would pass, and wouldn't bother with sizing down. I think the arms are too floppy or something. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-ef-linen-dress-1#post-1938100 Tue, 17 Jul 2018 20:19:42 +0000 Cardiff girl 1938100@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Size down!(is there an echo in here?) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-ef-linen-dress-1#post-1938098 Tue, 17 Jul 2018 20:08:45 +0000 Jenn 1938098@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You might have to size down twice in some EF pieces...once because you're prone to buying a size too big, and again because EF can run large. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-ef-linen-dress-1#post-1938092 Tue, 17 Jul 2018 19:58:00 +0000 Suz 1938092@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Size down!

But it can't hurt to try the smaller size and see how you feel, right? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-ef-linen-dress-1#post-1938044 Tue, 17 Jul 2018 18:02:27 +0000 Anonymous 1938044@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'll vote for sizing down. &nbsp;Excellent summer dress, though!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-ef-linen-dress-1#post-1938042 Tue, 17 Jul 2018 17:53:35 +0000 Anonymous 1938042@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it looks a little big from the front view as well.&nbsp; Seems to look fine from the side view.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-ef-linen-dress-1#post-1938035 Tue, 17 Jul 2018 17:39:52 +0000 Anonymous 1938035@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I hate to say this, but I think it should be smaller...... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-ef-linen-dress-1#post-1938033 Tue, 17 Jul 2018 17:33:56 +0000 Elizabeth P 1938033@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It does look good, but I do think trying a size down is worth doing... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-ef-linen-dress-1#post-1938027 Tue, 17 Jul 2018 17:21:09 +0000 JAileen 1938027@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Barbara, Diane, whatever I buy, Angie says I need to size down. I can see that it’s very loose on top, but I don’t think I can go down another size. So it’s a question of whether it looks good as is. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-ef-linen-dress-1#post-1938020 Tue, 17 Jul 2018 17:07:59 +0000 Barbara Diane 1938020@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks cute and comfy. But are you thinking you could go a size smaller? As you seem to be anticipating that question. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-ef-linen-dress-1#post-1938018 Tue, 17 Jul 2018 17:04:32 +0000 JAileen 1938018@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What do you think of this EF linen dress? The fabric is lovely. I have sized down already, in case you were wondering. Should I keep it? </p>
