A patent or metallic finish might look good. </p> <p>Otherwise, how would you feel about adding a sash (fabric belt) instead? You could tie the bow in the front or back, depending on where you want the fabric to taper. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-red-dress#post-2263914 Sat, 21 May 2022 14:21:01 +0000 Angie 2263914@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cute dress with an arty and slightly architectural vibe! I also like it best unbelted. Fab colour on you.

If you love it you should keep it for sure, but maybe try to pinpoint exactly what you’re unsure about — is it the stiffness of the fabric, or the wrinkles, or possibility of shrinking? There are some things to me that are deal breakers, and I’ve made lots of mistakes by overlooking them because I loved the shape or color or something else.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-red-dress#post-2263562 Wed, 18 May 2022 08:51:07 +0000 Bijou 2263562@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look fabulous in red, I like this best unbelted.

A great colour and design. I find cotton great in hot weather and a simple style elegant and able to adapt to different occasions. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-red-dress#post-2263196 Sun, 15 May 2022 05:56:18 +0000 Suz 2263196@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it on you unbelted. The colour is gorgeous and enlivening and you look beautiful! Unbelted, it will be cool and breezy. You could also try it with a thinner belt, perhaps.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-red-dress#post-2263185 Sun, 15 May 2022 05:03:10 +0000 Sal 2263185@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes keep - looks great.&nbsp; I agree with the comments re the belt and possibly a necklace!&nbsp; Colour and shape are great on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-red-dress#post-2263177 Sun, 15 May 2022 02:40:41 +0000 BlueJay 2263177@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful colour on you and I love the style too.

I might also try another kind of belt.<br /> Yes, it's a woven fabric, very light. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-red-dress#post-2263125 Sat, 14 May 2022 15:47:29 +0000 unfrumped 2263125@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This looks like a great simple summer dress for you. I agree with comments on belting. That also will reduce wrinkling. Though, I still think you could belt sometimes, but I would use a softer belt to minimize the bulkiness Janet noted. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-red-dress#post-2263121 Sat, 14 May 2022 15:12:28 +0000 Style Fan 2263121@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the colour and style of the dress for you.&nbsp; I prefer it unbelted because it looks like a trapeze style. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-red-dress#post-2263119 Sat, 14 May 2022 14:24:41 +0000 slim cat 2263119@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Pretty! I like it unbelted with some accessories like a chain or necklace&nbsp;<br />( belt seems a bit heavy for that fabric ). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-red-dress#post-2263114 Sat, 14 May 2022 13:51:37 +0000 Carla 2263114@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great colour and modern trapeze style. &nbsp;Much prefer unbelted. &nbsp;It’s woven right? &nbsp;Will it need to be ironed after washing? A dress like this can&nbsp;<i>feel&nbsp;</i>especially nice on hot days, since it hangs away from the body.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-red-dress#post-2263102 Sat, 14 May 2022 12:25:19 +0000 Star (Lise) 2263102@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it alot, with and without belt.&nbsp; Just be careful of the back hem riding up when belted.&nbsp; I prefer my cotton pieces to have some heft. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-red-dress#post-2263100 Sat, 14 May 2022 11:58:07 +0000 Brooklyn 2263100@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it on you. And I agree with Janet. Better without the belt and with a nice long pendant. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-red-dress#post-2263095 Sat, 14 May 2022 10:38:05 +0000 Janet 2263095@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks like a nice versatile dress, especially if you need something for warm summer. I like it best unbelted, perhaps with a pendant for a little accessorization. I don’t love that particular belt with it — I think I’d rather see a sleeker profile belt, like an obi or a wide leather belt. The woven belt almost seems a little bulky to my eye. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-red-dress#post-2263092 Sat, 14 May 2022 07:59:31 +0000 chirico (Chiara) 2263092@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you!<br /> @approprio, yes I am a bit worried about wrinkes probably, hope it will get sifter with washing. I like that it's 100% cotton.<br /> @jenniNZ, bonus pic of daughter, who took pictures! She's 8 now </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-red-dress#post-2263089 Sat, 14 May 2022 07:14:14 +0000 rachylou 2263089@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I quite like it. I think you probably need to fiddle with the belt a bit, to get the proper fall. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-red-dress#post-2263088 Sat, 14 May 2022 07:07:05 +0000 approprio 2263088@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another yay from me. It looks nice with and without belts. The cotton may soften as you wash it, but I think the crispness gives it extra body. Are you worried about wrinkles? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-red-dress#post-2263087 Sat, 14 May 2022 07:00:08 +0000 Jenni NZ 2263087@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You love it and you look gorgeous. I am speaking here from looking back at a red dress I bought in 1993, when I was 32. I only fitted it until my next pregnancy about 2 years later. But I still remember fondly how I looked in it. So I vote yay!<br /> I am assuming the child in your profile pic might be quite a bit older now? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-red-dress#post-2263085 Sat, 14 May 2022 06:19:46 +0000 chirico (Chiara) 2263085@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Goomorning. I need your opinion on this dress. Pics show it with and without belt. Sorry for the tag, but still unsure whether I want to keep it or not. The color is more vivid than in some pics, and I love it. My only doubt is that it's pure cotton, and it seems a bit rigid when belted. What do you think? </p>
