You and I are once again on the same wavelength. I'm headed to the only store in the city that stocks EF to see what their pants situation is like. &nbsp;I think I'll bite the bullet if I find a pair I like. &nbsp;</p> <p>I can imagine being able to wear this dress in a ton of ways, and with a ton of jackets - casual, and dressy. Probably money well spent. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-ef-dress#post-1420865 Thu, 08 Jan 2015 15:30:39 +0000 catgirl 1420865@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can't wear this style at all - too much upper body (me, not the dress) - which makes me think it would look fab on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-ef-dress#post-1420853 Thu, 08 Jan 2015 15:00:25 +0000 viva 1420853@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Joy, thanks for posting those pics and for all the great info! I am definitely considering this dress -- will have to see what happens when the Anthro one appears. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-ef-dress#post-1420845 Thu, 08 Jan 2015 14:34:59 +0000 Anonymous 1420845@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok, mine are not the silk jersey but a knit modal more like the lining of the one you link to. The drape is fabulous...not clingy but heavy enough to really drape. I do have some EF silk jersey tops that have a beautiful drape but none are sheer. I hand wash and lay flat to dry. The modal fabric will feel stiff and awful when wet but will become soft again when dry. I think I would dry clean the dress you link to with the mix of fabrics. Mine need no pressing and rarely wrinkle. I'm enclosing a photo of my blue dress alone and with cardi and jacket. I wanted length and opted for a regular size rather than petite.<br /> Debbie also has this dress and a S was the best fit for her. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-ef-dress#post-1420832 Thu, 08 Jan 2015 14:15:25 +0000 Anonymous 1420832@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Viva, I am also a small-chested rectangle and have a couple of similar EF dresses that she calls a lantern dress. It is also fitted to the waist, flares out and narrows again at the bottom. I like that it gives some curves to my rectangle. This one looks a little fuller but should have the same effect. Most EF pieces run large. My dresses are XS and I would probably take a Small in other brands. I am 5'3" and weight about 120 lbs.<br /> I will post this not to lose what I wrote and look at the fabric on yours before commenting. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-ef-dress#post-1420829 Thu, 08 Jan 2015 14:09:57 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1420829@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have no experience with this dress Viva but must say that it's positively lovely! I think it has fabulous potential and actually think it would be fabulous on a small chested rectangle. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/this-ef-dress#post-1420822 Thu, 08 Jan 2015 13:50:35 +0000 viva 1420822@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Does anyone have or have experience with this EF dress? I'm interested in sizing, washing, drape, etc., especially for a small-chested rectangle. I recently ordered a dress from Anthro but if it doesn't work I am thinking about this one, which seems like a modern classic and could easily be worn for work, too (unlike the Anthro dress). Love its simplicity. This one is currently on sale from EF.
