I agree with everyone else it looks too big.<br />Vickie </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-dress---fit-kr#post-1027622 Thu, 12 Sep 2013 15:37:13 +0000 Thistle 1027622@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmmm, i love this dress. It is super cute.&nbsp; But it looks too big to my eye.&nbsp; Perhaps you could take it to a seamstress to have it altered? She might be able to tell you how to get the top to fit.&nbsp; It doesn;t look intentionally slouchy to my eye. It looks too big. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-dress---fit-kr#post-1027615 Thu, 12 Sep 2013 15:30:05 +0000 lyn67 1027615@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautifull dress, Mo,&nbsp;but has to be shortened on top of the straps, and maybe a bit&nbsp;taken in on sides of the armholes, too. Then, the waist hopefully&nbsp;will fall&nbsp;to it's much deserved natural place, and will do wonders to the overall look.(it's&nbsp; a bit big on&nbsp;your back, too-for leaving it unaltered). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-dress---fit-kr#post-1027597 Thu, 12 Sep 2013 15:16:14 +0000 Mo 1027597@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I will have to play with some safety pins today! &nbsp;I think it is almost there, and a nip and tuck here or there&nbsp;could do the trick. &nbsp;I am so bad about alterations . . . one, I don't really trust anyone out here, and two, I tend to just see the fit off the rack and send it back if it's off.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-dress---fit-kr#post-1027596 Thu, 12 Sep 2013 15:11:48 +0000 texstyle 1027596@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'd probably do a small alteration and enjoy the dress being that it's the last one and you love the style. I've done this before on a top and it worked just fine and made the top one I enjoyed wearing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-dress---fit-kr#post-1027376 Thu, 12 Sep 2013 11:16:45 +0000 unfrumped 1027376@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Armholes mostly, so a side seam nip might do it. You can still keep the easy vibe, but you don't want that armhole sagging thing going on. Straps if the v is too low, or if somehow that looks better overall, but I don't think the waist is too low per se, and I think keeping some length adds to the easy look. Anyway, see which tweaks work best as its quite pretty and look worth some minor alterations to get the fit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-dress---fit-kr#post-1027337 Thu, 12 Sep 2013 08:14:39 +0000 Anonymous 1027337@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with the others. It looks roomy. Great ideas to lift it up at the shoulders. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-dress---fit-kr#post-1027327 Thu, 12 Sep 2013 07:28:56 +0000 ManidipaM 1027327@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Seconding Rae. I am not sure shortened straps won't end up too babydoll... unless you are fine with that (confessing poison-eye). I quite like the lines in the front of the bodice just now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-dress---fit-kr#post-1027222 Thu, 12 Sep 2013 02:46:46 +0000 rae 1027222@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the loose fit but for the armholes. I vote take those suckers in! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-dress---fit-kr#post-1027202 Thu, 12 Sep 2013 02:22:45 +0000 amiable 1027202@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yep - try pinning up the armholes. &nbsp;I think it'll solve it. &nbsp;Great dress! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-dress---fit-kr#post-1027180 Thu, 12 Sep 2013 01:54:55 +0000 dakotacheryl 1027180@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Totally agree on the alterations. Beautiful dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-dress---fit-kr#post-1027179 Thu, 12 Sep 2013 01:50:54 +0000 Karie 1027179@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cute dress! It fits you only slightly bigger than it does on the model. Take a tuck in the straps to bring up the waist a bit&nbsp;and another tuck&nbsp;under the arms, and it will fit you exactly like the model. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-dress---fit-kr#post-1027174 Thu, 12 Sep 2013 01:42:35 +0000 Jaime 1027174@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What Diana said. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-dress---fit-kr#post-1027170 Thu, 12 Sep 2013 01:41:05 +0000 Diana 1027170@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the straps are too long. It's an easy fix on a sleeveless garment. Pin it up with a safety pin and try it on to see if it fixes the issues. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-dress---fit-kr#post-1027107 Thu, 12 Sep 2013 00:18:25 +0000 Suz 1027107@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks big to me, too. But it might be fixable as Kelly suggests. Nice dress!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-dress---fit-kr#post-1027100 Thu, 12 Sep 2013 00:09:35 +0000 kellygirl 1027100@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The armholes look the same on the model. Perhaps just take them up a smidge to get the waist a little higher. Cute dress. Looks perfect for the heat! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-dress---fit-kr#post-1027098 Thu, 12 Sep 2013 00:06:50 +0000 catgirl 1027098@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The fit looks good at a glance, but the armholes tell me it's too big. It's so cute! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-dress---fit-kr#post-1027096 Thu, 12 Sep 2013 00:03:33 +0000 Mo 1027096@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>More model pics for comparison&nbsp;<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.revolveclothing.com/DisplayProduct.jsp?code=FLUX-WD483">http://www.revolveclothing.com.....FLUX-WD483</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-dress---fit-kr#post-1027093 Thu, 12 Sep 2013 00:01:13 +0000 Mo 1027093@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am in FL already, Kelly. &nbsp;And it's been HOT - hence the need for a cool dress (in more ways than one lol).&nbsp;<br />Janet, this is the last one &nbsp;I can't fathom that small is too big for me . . . seems wrong. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-dress---fit-kr#post-1027088 Wed, 11 Sep 2013 23:56:04 +0000 Janet 1027088@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks like you could go down a size. Cool dress though! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-dress---fit-kr#post-1027087 Wed, 11 Sep 2013 23:53:17 +0000 kellygirl 1027087@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's a great place to start. It seems like that would solve a couple issues--armholes and waist. Are you in FL already? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-dress---fit-kr#post-1027086 Wed, 11 Sep 2013 23:51:54 +0000 Jules 1027086@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, I don't think things need to be super body con but since the dress does have a defined waist, I think it could fit better. I don't think it's totally flattering to your amazing figure - flattering being a relative term since I'd be happy to look like this! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-dress---fit-kr#post-1027085 Wed, 11 Sep 2013 23:51:20 +0000 Mo 1027085@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kelly, I wonder if altering the straps might be a thought. &nbsp;I knew the waist would be an issue with my high waist. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-dress---fit-kr#post-1027084 Wed, 11 Sep 2013 23:50:05 +0000 kellygirl 1027084@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's a cool dress but it looks too big. The armholes/bodice look too big especially from the side. I want the waist to be smaller and higher up on you too.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-dress---fit-kr#post-1027081 Wed, 11 Sep 2013 23:47:51 +0000 Mo 1027081@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Got the dress in the mail. &nbsp;Not sure on the fit. &nbsp;Part of me thinks it's the model slouchy cool look. &nbsp;Another part says the dress is too big for you.&nbsp;</p> <p></p> <p>(pardon my posture in pic 3) Pic 4 is just letting it all hang without adjusting the front. &nbsp;I guess I could tack it or use fashion tape . . .&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp; </p>
