(I mean the one you've already bought). I think it suits you better. So I hope it can be altered. I hear your frustration on that. It can be an issue for me, too.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/possible-dress-alternative#post-1016689 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 11:09:32 +0000 lyn67 1016689@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both are lovely, but nr 2 is special to my eyes for a matter I cannot explain! Maybe the lower contrast suits you self&nbsp;better but the centre&nbsp;&nbsp; black line accent is still there to elongate your frame, Miss Skyscraper:-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/possible-dress-alternative#post-1016678 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 10:46:45 +0000 rute 1016678@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>yay! Love it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/possible-dress-alternative#post-1016615 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 07:17:33 +0000 anne 1016615@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks!</p> <p>Jorocha, the angle I have taken the photo covers my chest. Sadly, since I am an A Cup, and the rest of my body isn't tiny, the problem is definitely there! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/possible-dress-alternative#post-1016608 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 07:02:08 +0000 jurocha 1016608@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree you can't go wrong with either. But... #2 is hotter! Find that dressmaker! (In the pic, though, it doesn't seem to need any adjustments...) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/possible-dress-alternative#post-1016598 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 06:47:01 +0000 Lyn D. 1016598@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like both too!<br />#1 looks slightly longer and less waist-defining, and the brighter print looks very Spring-y. You can't go wrong with either. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/possible-dress-alternative#post-1016589 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 06:39:20 +0000 anne 1016589@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I see you all agree with me!&nbsp; Good point Manidipa, though I can assure you I will not be going&nbsp; over the price point of dress #2! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/possible-dress-alternative#post-1016496 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 03:11:43 +0000 nancylee 1016496@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, these are both fabulous options. &nbsp;I agree that the bright print in #1 is lovely, and the fit in #2 is very very good. &nbsp;</p> <p>I think you are a win either way. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/possible-dress-alternative#post-1016493 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 03:07:43 +0000 ManidipaM 1016493@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Agree with Deborah. But like I often note, sometimes a side by side comparison tends to be unfair simply because there is not a thing wrong with #1 if you never saw #2. And similarly, I bet we could find you a stellar frock to outshine #2 too, especially if we go up to the next price point or designer level. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/possible-dress-alternative#post-1016487 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 02:52:27 +0000 Deborah 1016487@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Anne I like both.&nbsp; The deeper colours in the first dress are quite fab on you but there is something rather special about the overal fit of the second dress </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/possible-dress-alternative#post-1016483 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 02:43:11 +0000 anne 1016483@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Could 1 work as an alternative to 2? </p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>I have bought no 2 but am not sure if I can get it altered to take in at the bust. Mum reckons it was too hard. I am going to ask a dressmaker (and also go back to the shop and see if I have magically gone down a size on the bottom!)</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>If those don't work, how does 1 stand up as an alternative? The quality isn't quite as good, but is acceptable.</p>
