Sorry I have already posted this dress on a different thread. It helped to be able to take the wrap off later. I had a tiny safety pin in a strategic spot to hold it, then pulled it off later over my head.<br /> I see you wonder if a wrap is too much with the tie waist, but it may be able to cover it… </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/requesting-topper-advice-wedding-guest-dress#post-2202227 Sat, 12 Jun 2021 19:03:54 +0000 rachylou 2202227@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like chewey’s shrug. My first thought was also a kimono style jacket, but there may be some collar competition depending. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/requesting-topper-advice-wedding-guest-dress#post-2202187 Sat, 12 Jun 2021 16:31:51 +0000 Carla 2202187@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was going to suggest kimono style topper, but I see several other folks have the same idea. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/requesting-topper-advice-wedding-guest-dress#post-2202184 Sat, 12 Jun 2021 16:08:12 +0000 Anonymous 2202184@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Awesome dress! Would a shawl work? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/requesting-topper-advice-wedding-guest-dress#post-2202148 Sat, 12 Jun 2021 14:17:53 +0000 Anonymous 2202148@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with Irina. A kimono style topper in a dark floral silk could give you the dark floral and swish. A large scarf worn as a shawl is another idea. A linen rather open knit long cardigan may also work. Nordstrom’s had some a couple of years ago. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/requesting-topper-advice-wedding-guest-dress#post-2202147 Sat, 12 Jun 2021 14:16:35 +0000 cat2 2202147@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Silk kimono is also my suggestion. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/requesting-topper-advice-wedding-guest-dress#post-2202143 Sat, 12 Jun 2021 14:05:23 +0000 Irina 2202143@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would explore a kimono style light weight topper to wear open over the dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/requesting-topper-advice-wedding-guest-dress#post-2202138 Sat, 12 Jun 2021 13:52:07 +0000 chewyspaghetti 2202138@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><a href="https://naploungewear.com/product/bolero-shrug/?gclid=CjwKCAjwtpGGBhBJEiwAyRZX2iWbnbraTX3Mo59QB74x8M6fNK0nG2GPTo0kvle9LN6pj9yaqnXwPBoCFn0QAvD_BwE" rel="nofollow">https://naploungewear.com/prod.....n0QAvD_BwE</a><br /> a shrug- like this, but in a more open knit pattern and maybe not a full length sleeve </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/requesting-topper-advice-wedding-guest-dress#post-2202137 Sat, 12 Jun 2021 13:44:39 +0000 chewyspaghetti 2202137@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Pretty dress!<br /> I don't have aspecific item or link, but one of those sweaters that is just two sleeves attached by a back piece might work. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/requesting-topper-advice-wedding-guest-dress#post-2202112 Sat, 12 Jun 2021 11:55:45 +0000 Tanya 2202112@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Perhaps check Hobbs out?&nbsp; They always have lots of short/cropped jackets mean to go with dresses.&nbsp; I have attached one, but they have multiple options. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/requesting-topper-advice-wedding-guest-dress#post-2202101 Sat, 12 Jun 2021 11:29:45 +0000 RoseandJoan 2202101@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Monsoon's Juni jacket may work, although I'm unsure if it would be too warm? <a href="https://www.monsoon.co.uk/juni-cropped-jacket-blue-84233361.html?dwvar_84233361_color=NAVY&#038;quantity=1" rel="nofollow">https://www.monsoon.co.uk/juni.....quantity=1</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/requesting-topper-advice-wedding-guest-dress#post-2202099 Sat, 12 Jun 2021 10:45:36 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2202099@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The link doesn’t work for me, but going from the picture, I don’t see why you couldn’t use a large scarf draped across your shoulders as a wrap. Are the ones you mention more complicated than that? If you go for short sleeves, you might want to look for some that are angled. But I’m just guessing here, because I don’t know anything about your shape or style. </p> <p>Have fun at the celebration! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/requesting-topper-advice-wedding-guest-dress#post-2202098 Sat, 12 Jun 2021 10:15:19 +0000 ANewMindset 2202098@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi fabbers...l have an evening wedding to attend in mid-summer at a Country Club like wedding venue. </p> <p>I found this dress at Macys yesterday, in black. Didnt think much when i saw it online, but once i put it on, my mind changed. Quality was great, it has a bit of structure, and the neckline was really flattering.</p> <p>Here's my dilema... i want a little arm coverage, especially for photos. The tie waist detail makes it kinda tricky. Was thinking of bolero style something... It needs to be lightweight because its summer- but i cant seem to find one that doesnt look dated to me. I have some beautiful wraps, but they seemed a bit much paired with the tie waist. </p> <p>Does anyone have other ideas? I may keep hunting for a short sleeve dress... i like dark florals... but that is easier said than done!!</p> <p>This link is to the blue version<br /> <a href="https://www.macys.com/shop/product/anne-klein-tie-waist-midi-dress?ID=10985685&#038;CategoryID=5449&#038;swatchColor=Calypso%20Blue" rel="nofollow">https://www.macys.com/shop/pro.....pso%20Blue</a></p> <p>Also including a screenshot of the black:</p> <p>Thanks!!</p> <p>ETA - see note about my kimono search in the comments </p>
