I like the dress too, but it is not quite as good a shade as the cami.

Camis are winners! lyn67 on "Two Keeps and a Return" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/two-keeps-and-a-return#post-2281709 Sat, 17 Sep 2022 22:04:51 +0000 lyn67 2281709@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ You know I was always controversial with silk and how to style it but I see now your trick is in the styling the dainty fine lacey silk cami  under a more robust (linen?) shirt or jacket--that is genial-and makes so much sense for the so called unexpected juxtaposition. I loved the color and the cut of the dress---so dissapointed it wasn't up to your standards...looks great from what I can see here...

And now I guess you will have fun looking for a new option.... kkards on "Two Keeps and a Return" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/two-keeps-and-a-return#post-2281618 Sat, 17 Sep 2022 12:43:25 +0000 kkards 2281618@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Bummer on the dress, but Yay for the 2 cami’s.  These are the types of colors that i find harder to buy on line because as you note the light can really  change the way it looks, but I’m sure that you’ll find something that does work for you   Brooklyn on "Two Keeps and a Return" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/two-keeps-and-a-return#post-2281594 Sat, 17 Sep 2022 02:02:51 +0000 Brooklyn 2281594@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ The dress is very pretty but I think it leans a bit more marigold/golden yellow than rust. I’ve been caught by that before when I bought a jumper in a similar shade. Rust works for me but yellow is tricky. I ended up never wearing it. So I think you are doing the right thing. The camis look great.

Too bad about the dress. It did look good on you despite its flaws.

Too bad the fit doesn’t feel right. Next. KILLER camisoles!

I think I can just see the fit issue and agree that maybe the colour doesn’t look as good as the colour of the cami even although they are similar. Hope you can find something else better- have fun looking!

I’m yet to find one that would fit me. <div>Great dress but if color doesn’t work, you are right not to compromise. </div> Star (Lise) on "Two Keeps and a Return" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/two-keeps-and-a-return#post-2281539 Fri, 16 Sep 2022 20:22:06 +0000 Star (Lise) 2281539@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Love the camis.

Maybe the shimmer makes the cami read as darker and easier to wear? Jenn on "Two Keeps and a Return" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/two-keeps-and-a-return#post-2281534 Fri, 16 Sep 2022 20:17:11 +0000 Jenn 2281534@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Janet, if I had loved everything else about it, I would have considered an alteration, although I think it might have been a difficult job. As it was, the color wasn't quite right, so I'm willing to let it go. I'm pretty sure I can do better! Dee on "Two Keeps and a Return" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/two-keeps-and-a-return#post-2281532 Fri, 16 Sep 2022 20:16:54 +0000 Dee 2281532@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Yep, those camis are a great addition. Too bad about the fit issue in the dress, it is pretty but I guess the hunt continues. Janet on "Two Keeps and a Return" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/two-keeps-and-a-return#post-2281530 Fri, 16 Sep 2022 20:14:33 +0000 Janet 2281530@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Oh, that’s a shame about the dress because otherwise it really looks great on you! Is it possible that an alteration could correct the issue, either in that size or another one? Nevertheless, the camis look great and yes, 2 out of 3 is pretty darn good! Jenn on "Two Keeps and a Return" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/two-keeps-and-a-return#post-2281527 Fri, 16 Sep 2022 19:39:19 +0000 Jenn 2281527@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Silk camis and tanks are an essential for my style, so it's nice to have a refresh there!

Too bad the dress didn’t work. I will have to check them out. Jenn on "Two Keeps and a Return" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/two-keeps-and-a-return#post-2281519 Fri, 16 Sep 2022 19:13:29 +0000 Jenn 2281519@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Executing on my <a rel="nofollow" href="https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fall-planning-2022">fall plan</a>, I got my package from Sundance Catalog today with two pretty silk camis and a really gorgeous broderie dress. Sadly, the color of the dress, while super close to that of the amber cami somehow caught the light in a different way that felt much less flattering. It also had a fit issue that I don’t think would have been solved by changing size. You can sort of see it in this pic. The underarms gap where the sleeves are attached causing a wrinkle at each armpit. I do think the camis will be useful in my wardrobe year-round and I love the eyelash lace at the neckline. (Please excuse the fresh-out-of-the-package fold lines! I’ll steam before wearing for real.) So two keeps and a return. That means I get to try more statement dresses!
