That would get my vote. The first one is the best cut for you IMO. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-lands-end-dresses#post-861376 Wed, 27 Feb 2013 03:33:53 +0000 Carla 861376@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thistle, I own #1 and style it with a wide green belt and a blazer cut dark wash jean jacket. I think the drape of the dress is beautiful on your body, and I agree with all the other folks posting here that you do dark green beautifully </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-lands-end-dresses#post-861296 Wed, 27 Feb 2013 02:13:14 +0000 Thistle 861296@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I appreciate all of your honesty! A bit of mixed reviews, but it does sound like they should all go back. Sad, really. All three of these dresses combined cost less than 1/3 of the blue one I am in love with. Figures, huh? :)</p> <p>Probably a reason they were on sale. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-lands-end-dresses#post-861288 Wed, 27 Feb 2013 02:03:25 +0000 Caro in Oz 861288@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't think these stack up against your other dresses.<br /> The fit on #1 looks really good but the pattern/colours aren't working for me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-lands-end-dresses#post-861276 Wed, 27 Feb 2013 01:50:16 +0000 Echo 861276@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am with Rae on #1 - the fit is good, but the pattern and colouration is somehow aging. But I will break from the crowd and say that #2 is fabulous. I think it is flattering and youthful and fun, especially with summer coming up. The colour on the third is fab, and the fabric looks nice, but something about the fit isn't quite right. I think you can do better than #3. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-lands-end-dresses#post-861264 Wed, 27 Feb 2013 01:39:46 +0000 columbine(erin) 861264@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the first dress is flattering but the others aren't, even though the colors look good on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-lands-end-dresses#post-861254 Wed, 27 Feb 2013 01:33:38 +0000 Krista 861254@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Straight up - #1 is my favorite but I think you already have a few wrap styles and for that reason, I could see that you might pass on this one.<br /> The others, IMO, are not as good as you deserve. </p> <p>ps. are your flats from Franco Sarto? I think I have the same pair </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-lands-end-dresses#post-861251 Wed, 27 Feb 2013 01:32:30 +0000 Nicole D 861251@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like #2, but I like your Nordie's haul better. I would keep #2. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-lands-end-dresses#post-861242 Wed, 27 Feb 2013 01:27:12 +0000 Jules 861242@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like #1 best, but agree with rae that none of these seem up to your current high standard. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-lands-end-dresses#post-861239 Wed, 27 Feb 2013 01:25:37 +0000 pil 861239@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The fabric of 3 is really nice, isn't it? The color is great on you, but something about the fit is just off, isn't it? Love the fit of 1 - do you think a colored cami might help make the dress color work better? Or maybe that is too much effort to "make" the dress work. I agree with Una about the sleeves of 2, although the color is nice. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-lands-end-dresses#post-861163 Wed, 27 Feb 2013 00:37:56 +0000 Thistle 861163@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The belt is an issue with #3. As much as I love the color, I am leaning toward returning it. Getting the belt to stay put is not easy, and I feel like it unkind for figure flattery.</p> <p> The color on #1 may not be ideal. It looked more green in the pictures, but it seems to have a lot of cream and yellow in it, neither of which are great colors on me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-lands-end-dresses#post-861160 Wed, 27 Feb 2013 00:37:01 +0000 rae 861160@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok, on the invitation to give it to you straight, I don't think any of these are good enough for you. #1 fits great, but IMO the print makes it feel a little bit dowdy. Just my opinion and may need a grain of salt, since I have strong opinions on every floral print I meet. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-lands-end-dresses#post-861156 Wed, 27 Feb 2013 00:33:35 +0000 K. Period. 861156@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like 1 and 2. 3 is pretty, but I really wish that they just had a single seam, rather than the double seam, at the waist. I like the focus of the belt with it, but I would try it centered in the middle rather than at the bottom of the panel. I don't know if that will work, though. Sometimes those double seams are trouble because they don't work with a belt high, low or middle. I'm also not keen on the little bit of sagging in the drape of the dress around your hip bone level. So, I'm kind of lukewarm on 3, but I could be convinced. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-lands-end-dresses#post-861151 Wed, 27 Feb 2013 00:30:43 +0000 deb 861151@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote for #1 and love the color of #3. Not sure about the fit, though. #2 is my least favorite. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-lands-end-dresses#post-861104 Wed, 27 Feb 2013 00:10:49 +0000 Day Vies 861104@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have had my eye on 2&amp;3 for awhile from LE. I love them on you. I love how the seaming and structure of #3 plays well with your curves. #1 I am not sure it enhances your coloring. The fit is fine -- it's the colors. #2 is very nice as well. I think you look great in greens and plums. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-lands-end-dresses#post-861103 Wed, 27 Feb 2013 00:10:28 +0000 catgirl 861103@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love #1! Not sure of the sleeves on #2, and the fit of #3 looks a bit off, like it's not sitting right. I often have that problem with inset waistbands. But then again, I have no waist. Love the color of #3 best though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-lands-end-dresses#post-861092 Wed, 27 Feb 2013 00:08:34 +0000 Thistle 861092@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So, I tried the LE dress that Dianthanus recommended. And, I picked up a few more *sigh* I am weak. But, at least I am supporting a local business! They are located about 2.5 hours from our house on the other side of the state, which means I get fast shipping :)</p> <p>Pic#1 - The reviews all said this ran large, so I sized down. Not sure I should have. This is not a wrap dress. It just has the ballet top attached the skirt. </p> <p>Pic#2 - this has aslip dress inside with an organza overlay.</p> <p>Pic#3&amp;4 - This is the dres Dianthanus recommended. LOVE the color. Wasn't sold ont he fit, so I tried it with a blue belt like they showed on the model. Still not really sure . . . </p> <p>Give it to me straight. If none of these work for me, they will all go back, and I will divert those resources elsewhere! </p>
