The fit is definitely a deal killer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/larger-1901-fit%e2%80%99n%e2%80%99flair-dress#post-1947267 Sun, 12 Aug 2018 12:45:15 +0000 Anonymous 1947267@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with Suz! And really like the brown mules. If they came in narrow they'd be on their way to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/larger-1901-fit%e2%80%99n%e2%80%99flair-dress#post-1947264 Sun, 12 Aug 2018 12:38:54 +0000 Suz 1947264@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think this style is definitely worth searching out. Looks great on you apart from that fit issue.&nbsp;</p> <p>Thanks for the tip on those mules. I'll see if I can locate a pair to try in person.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/larger-1901-fit%e2%80%99n%e2%80%99flair-dress#post-1947219 Sun, 12 Aug 2018 05:11:18 +0000 Anonymous 1947219@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This style is wonderful on you. I am sorry the sleeve fit is not right. Maybe your dress will show up soon. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/larger-1901-fit%e2%80%99n%e2%80%99flair-dress#post-1947191 Sun, 12 Aug 2018 01:10:15 +0000 rachylou 1947191@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It really is a good looking dress, esp with the brown mules. Too bad about the arm thing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/larger-1901-fit%e2%80%99n%e2%80%99flair-dress#post-1947188 Sun, 12 Aug 2018 00:46:14 +0000 DonnaF 1947188@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>On the last day of NAS I reordered this dress in the next size up per Angie’s suggestion since P4 was quite restrictive in the shoulders plus I wanted to see how it looked with my mules.</p> <p>The first picture is the larger dress which is a tiny bit wide in the shoulders, and the second dress was what I posted at the beginning of the sale.</p> <p>I love the crispness and how I can pop the collar on this dress. I don’t love how uncomfortable it is when my arms are in a driving position. I also think it is cut for someone with squarer shoulders. J.Crew doesn’t get my body, and neither apparently does the 1901 fit model.</p> <p>But don’t you like how it looks with mules?</p> <p>But I also bought the Michael Stars dress at NAS because it had 3/4 sleeves and works as well with toppers as my Angie Pick dress.</p> <p>I highly recommend the Cole Haan mules; I just ordered the suede ones for approximately the same price as the NAS ones. They are shallow pretty far up so they don’t fall off my feet which is a major miracle. The inch heel is low enough that my feet don’t slide forward and jam my toes. </p>
