That is a shame.&nbsp;</p> <p>I got the XS in this as I always do in BR stuff -- XS or 0 (sometimes a 2 for pants and jeans).&nbsp;</p> <p>So sorry it did not work for you. I must be a tiny bit shorter and/or each item is a slightly different length. I saw on the models that some are at the knee (like mine is), some are below the knee (on a model????) and some are a bit shorter. So...inconsistencies, I suspect.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sweater-dress-found/page/2#post-1985764 Wed, 26 Dec 2018 02:56:06 +0000 Anonymous 1985764@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I ordered this sweater dress in the same light grey color. It came and is going back. I ordered a small for length and it is huge on me with the length still being iffy. The dress is soft and a great neutral. It is extra cute with button slits at the sides. It is meant for a more curvy figure than mine and the drop sleeves look like they don't know what they want to be on me. I am sad as this dress is exactly what I wanted. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sweater-dress-found/page/2#post-1983478 Mon, 17 Dec 2018 11:34:16 +0000 Mainelady 1983478@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Grand slam!

Ive been deciding with that length i like maxi cardis as indoor toppers best, requiring a longer coat to avoid having a "tail". </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sweater-dress-found/page/2#post-1983445 Mon, 17 Dec 2018 10:21:07 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 1983445@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That dress is fantastic on you, and will be a good canvas for lots of colors and styles. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sweater-dress-found/page/2#post-1983256 Sun, 16 Dec 2018 20:50:41 +0000 Suz 1983256@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Totally acceptable -- but sometimes the proportions (or colours) feel wrong to me. So I'm trying to puzzle it out!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sweater-dress-found/page/2#post-1983238 Sun, 16 Dec 2018 20:03:47 +0000 Irina 1983238@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz, I thought it is acceptable for a dress to stick out from under a coat when wearing with tights. I would not know, I have a few dresses and I wear them over pants. It looks much worse when a coat is too short. I long for summer </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sweater-dress-found/page/2#post-1983209 Sun, 16 Dec 2018 19:05:21 +0000 Suz 1983209@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Irina</b>, glad you found it to work for you!&nbsp;</p> <p>For coats...yes. This is an issue! I have a black trench coat that works with it, and I'm hoping I can also wear it with a cocoon coat that is a little shorter. But I'm still experimenting. I have yet to figure out the perfect solution for midis in winter -- and this isn't even a midi!!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sweater-dress-found/page/2#post-1983121 Sun, 16 Dec 2018 14:41:46 +0000 Irina 1983121@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I want to thank you, Suz! I mostly avoid BR now but after seeing you in the dress, I went yesterday and bought a navy one. I plan to wear it over pants. I like how it fits - I bough a petite dress in size S, my usual size in BR. The length is to the top of my knees and it’s fluid but not too oversized. My only problem is that all but one coat I have are shorter than a dress. So, I’m still undecided but this is the best sweater dress I’ve tried so far in terms of fit. Thanks again! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sweater-dress-found/page/2#post-1983110 Sun, 16 Dec 2018 14:01:25 +0000 Bijou 1983110@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is lovely and perfectly styled. It is a great neutral base that I think you will have fun wearing it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sweater-dress-found#post-1983101 Sun, 16 Dec 2018 13:34:05 +0000 Aquamarine 1983101@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks super on you! It’s a nice blank canvas for all the fun layering options (scarves, jackets maybe) this time of year.

I want one and may have to endure the crowds and go to the mall this weekend. I like it on you as styled in the photo. But if contrast and color don t work, try texture in similar pale neutrals. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sweater-dress-found#post-1982769 Sat, 15 Dec 2018 02:48:11 +0000 Elizabeth P 1982769@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This looks great Suz! Please report back on the butt bag situation.<br /> Just curious... did you try it in the “tall” option to get the length you want? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sweater-dress-found#post-1982732 Sat, 15 Dec 2018 01:07:05 +0000 chouette22 1982732@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh my goodness, I love this dress on you.

Perfect with this scarf and tights/boots combo, but it will be as gorgeous with dark blue and red and many other accent colours and patterns. I am just thinking about your big red earrings - wouldn’t they also look great with the dress?<br /> Anyway, what a FABULOUS purchase! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sweater-dress-found#post-1982698 Fri, 14 Dec 2018 22:09:34 +0000 taylor 1982698@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That’s really beautiful on you !<br /> And there you go ...making magic with a scarf again ! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sweater-dress-found#post-1982690 Fri, 14 Dec 2018 21:39:52 +0000 Anonymous 1982690@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I came back to edit out my bagging comment - which was not asked for , and sounded crabby. &nbsp;Sorry &nbsp;I don't even wear sweater dresses and am not about to, so why do I even have an opinion ?? &nbsp;Ack. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sweater-dress-found#post-1982688 Fri, 14 Dec 2018 21:34:52 +0000 Mirjana 1982688@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful, fits perfect, the color is fantastic on you and you look really amazing.

Notwithstanding length and possible bagging issues , it is perfect on you and for you&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sweater-dress-found#post-1982638 Fri, 14 Dec 2018 20:04:33 +0000 Suz 1982638@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Angie,</b> it sounds like you are lucky and have a good fabrication. I own a sleeveless sweater dress that is like that -- it's all cotton but has ribs and they seem to jump back into place right away. No bagging or sagging. But, sleeveless. So not good for winter. I wear it in late spring/ early fall. Or sometimes as a jumper with a blouse underneath. </p> <p>I suspect this BR dress will bag a bit, because it's not ribbed. I'll report back.&nbsp;</p> <p>Just barely okay on the length. I was hoping it would be a bit longer since on one of the models it was, but no luck with that. However, it's a nice easy fit otherwise.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sweater-dress-found#post-1982633 Fri, 14 Dec 2018 19:59:32 +0000 Angie 1982633@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KILLER </p> <p>Sooo gorgeous on you. LOVE.</p> <p>I liked this in navy for me - but too short. Perfect on you! </p> <p>I don’t have any bagging out issues with my sweater dresses. My olive BR midi sweater dress from last year is AMAZING. Did I just get lucky? </p>
