Perhaps if it still seems a little roomy after wearing/washing, you could have the side seams taken in slightly? I have to do that with a lot of tops. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/silk-cami-is-this-the-one-or-not#post-1850022 Mon, 02 Oct 2017 12:40:28 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 1850022@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Funny that you say it's time to hit the gym. I thought this highlights that you have great shoulders, pecs &amp; arms. </p> <p>It is kinda long, but you could tuck it in. Some people like to wear their tops this long. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/silk-cami-is-this-the-one-or-not#post-1850008 Mon, 02 Oct 2017 10:07:35 +0000 Style Fan 1850008@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous.&nbsp; Glad you are keeping it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/silk-cami-is-this-the-one-or-not#post-1849996 Mon, 02 Oct 2017 06:15:50 +0000 Berkeley Girl 1849996@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ditto from me, I think it looks lovely.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/silk-cami-is-this-the-one-or-not#post-1849977 Mon, 02 Oct 2017 03:02:48 +0000 Anonymous 1849977@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>To my eye it looks great.&nbsp; I love the idea of two layers of silk </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/silk-cami-is-this-the-one-or-not#post-1849974 Mon, 02 Oct 2017 02:53:06 +0000 Greyscale 1849974@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Also, hm. I used to have such great posture (all my hobbies required it: Irish dance, horseback riding, marching band) but now one shoulder is definitely sloping more than the other. Time to hit the gym or something.

I was concerned that made the whole thing look awkward. It's also longer in back than I was going for, but, I think the answer there (as LaPed guessed) is that I might want a different, cropped cami to wear with higher rise bottoms. At this price I could probably justify this one plus the Everlane one.</p> <p>As for the side seams, I bet it'll relax once it's been worn and washed. (I'll probably hand wash rather than dry clean.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/silk-cami-is-this-the-one-or-not#post-1849883 Sun, 01 Oct 2017 19:07:59 +0000 Nomad 1849883@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It doesn't look too big to my eyes... it looks beautiful on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/silk-cami-is-this-the-one-or-not#post-1849876 Sun, 01 Oct 2017 19:02:17 +0000 Angie 1849876@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KILLER </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/silk-cami-is-this-the-one-or-not#post-1849868 Sun, 01 Oct 2017 18:56:05 +0000 LaPed 1849868@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The low-contrast bottom could be leading me astray, but on my screen this does not look too big or too long. Unless your goal is to showcase high-waisted pants? Then maybe you need a more cropped version? As usual, I guess it comes down to intended styling... what toppers do you plan on layering over it? Which pants/skirts will you pair with it?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/silk-cami-is-this-the-one-or-not#post-1849852 Sun, 01 Oct 2017 17:32:10 +0000 Emily K 1849852@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Grayscale, I'm not sure about this one--so much comes down to feel and comfort on the body. &nbsp;But, I am glad to see your impression of this product as it is one that's been on my radar as well. &nbsp;I imagine that I'd be looking for a little more drape.</p> <p>For myself, I've been craving the Aritzia "Murphy" blouse. &nbsp;It's poly, though, maybe more coverage than you are looking for, and the armholes were too deep for me. &nbsp;On the plus side, it did drape very nicely, has a deep-V neckline, and wide straps-- a tank, not a cami. &nbsp;<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.aritzia.com/en/product/murphy-blouse/55975.html?dwvar_55975_color=4279">http://www.aritzia.com/en/prod.....color=4279</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/silk-cami-is-this-the-one-or-not#post-1849847 Sun, 01 Oct 2017 17:23:55 +0000 Anonymous 1849847@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks beautiful - and I don't think it seems too big or too long.....from what I can tell, anyways. &nbsp;The only thing that struck me was the relatively low cut in front....can you bend over without too much exposure? &nbsp;Great price on it too . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/silk-cami-is-this-the-one-or-not#post-1849843 Sun, 01 Oct 2017 17:16:02 +0000 Greyscale 1849843@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm searching for a silk cami as a versatile dressy/casual top. I loved the look of this one from Grana, especially the deep vee. The shape looks elegant yet relaxed. The two layers of heavy silk are gorgeous and as a bonus, the style covers my bra straps. It's the nicest one I've seen out of the options. </p> <p>But the thick silk doesn't drape as well as I'd hoped and I fear it ends up looking too big. Maybe just too long? And also somehow less casual than some options. It is soooo close to perfect that I'm tempted to keep it. What do you think?</p> <p>Definitely can't go down a size, because this one is just barely big enough in the bust. For Grana sizing reference it's an XS. </p> <p>Sorry for the sleepy-grouchy faces! </p> <p>edit: can't make a Grana find but here is the link:&nbsp;<a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.grana.com/silk-v-neck-camisole?size=202&amp;color=383">https://www.grana.com/silk-v-n.....;color=383</a>&nbsp;and I made a find for the closest competitor, an Everlane cami that's shorter and more casual (and doesn't cover bra straps for what it's worth).</p>
