I wish you could either make one, or have one made of different fabric. You and this jumpsuit belong together. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-this-dressy-jumpsuit#post-351007 Mon, 16 May 2011 21:30:43 +0000 bella 351007@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was going to say you have such great posture that you can pull this off. Sorry to hear that it disappointed you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-this-dressy-jumpsuit#post-351006 Mon, 16 May 2011 21:27:26 +0000 Inge 351006@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love all your enthusiastic replies, thank you so much everyone!!</p> <p>Okay, update: I saw it in the shop today, there was only one left, not my size, so unfortunately I couldn't try it on. It was on the mannequin and looked beautiful, yet the fabric was a little less substantial than in the picture. And it was 100% linen... For that alone I'd be very hesitant, because of the wrinkling factor + as Aunty pointed out linen sometimes doesn't look very flattering from behind;-)</p> <p>I would really, really loved to have tried it on though. I think I'm tall enough to pull it off and this style is just so right! The perfection combination of retro, elegant, dressy but not too evening-y etc.</p> <p>Lavinia: thanks for the link, it's nice, but I prefer the wide legs of this one.<br /> Laura: oooh wow!! I wish I could have seen you in that one, it sounds divine! (and if only this one was a wool blend)<br /> Joy: I almost fell off my chair laughing, now I'm imagining all sorts of scenarios:-)))<br /> Julie: you're right!! I hadn't realised, it is very Charlie's Angels (makes me love it even more). And absolutely, I promise!</p> <p>Oh well, fingers crossed I can find something similar... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-this-dressy-jumpsuit#post-350975 Mon, 16 May 2011 20:33:55 +0000 RoseandJoan 350975@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It is soooo Charlie's Angels I love it, if you buy one (similar) promise to do the pose! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-this-dressy-jumpsuit#post-350955 Mon, 16 May 2011 19:45:33 +0000 Antje 350955@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You'll rock this, Inge!! What a find - trendy and classy at the same time. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-this-dressy-jumpsuit#post-350935 Mon, 16 May 2011 19:05:08 +0000 Anonymous 350935@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful! but only get a jump suit if you have a bladder of iron. A sleeveless one like this is the only kind to wear if one is out for drinks and needs to use a public restroom. Don't ask me how I know. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-this-dressy-jumpsuit#post-350899 Mon, 16 May 2011 17:58:49 +0000 Lisa 350899@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Stunning, really elegant. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-this-dressy-jumpsuit#post-350788 Mon, 16 May 2011 14:20:58 +0000 Kappy 350788@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's gorgeous. But linen never passes my "scrunch it in your hand test". Anything wrinkled after that is left on the rack. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-this-dressy-jumpsuit#post-350784 Mon, 16 May 2011 14:15:50 +0000 Heather 350784@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I, too, LOVE it, but linen and I are not friends. Oh those lap wrinkles are my nemesis. Are you going to try it?! I want to see it on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-this-dressy-jumpsuit#post-350762 Mon, 16 May 2011 13:44:35 +0000 Polly (thunalata) 350762@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Stunning! I don't like jumpsuits, but a lot because of practical reasons. This looks amazing. I wouldn't wear it (I don't think, for the practical reasons again) so hope to see someone else wearing it instead! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-this-dressy-jumpsuit#post-350748 Mon, 16 May 2011 11:40:02 +0000 Laura 350748@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is it! So far, most of the jumpsuits I've seen are either very evening-ish or casual, and this one hits the mark exactly!!</p> <p>I had a very similar jumpsuit from Anne Klein in the early 90s in navy, and I wore a floaty chiffon blouse with a large collar and voluminous sleeves under it. It had a narrow belt, and the fabrication was some sort of wool blend. </p> <p>This jumpsuit is perfection! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-this-dressy-jumpsuit#post-350745 Mon, 16 May 2011 11:02:01 +0000 Cilleena 350745@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't usually like jumpsuits, but this one is beautiful. I would totally wear this one! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-this-dressy-jumpsuit#post-350731 Mon, 16 May 2011 08:36:20 +0000 suzanne 350731@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love it.

Not all but this one is very cool :-)<br /> This one has a pretty similar upper part, however the "pants" are a different silhouette.<br /> <a href="http://www.3suisses.fr/FrontOfficePortail/catalogue_fra/femme/shopping-par-produit/pantalons-pantacourts/tous-les-pantalons/combi-pantalon-femme-du-34-au-44/70185-combi-pantalon-femme-du-34-au-44.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.3suisses.fr/FrontOf.....au-44.html</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-this-dressy-jumpsuit#post-350728 Mon, 16 May 2011 08:06:57 +0000 rute 350728@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOVE!

I have seen alot of jumpsuits that look great from the front but a bit ify from the back </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-this-dressy-jumpsuit#post-350719 Mon, 16 May 2011 06:55:41 +0000 Anonymous 350719@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>But i think linen is fab! So cool and refreshing in summer! I have white linen pants for the beach/resort wear. They don't wrinke "that much". And the jumpsuit has a nice retro vibe! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-this-dressy-jumpsuit#post-350658 Mon, 16 May 2011 03:41:43 +0000 Jenava 350658@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love it. Is it linen blend, at least? Pure linen might not be so great... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-this-dressy-jumpsuit#post-350644 Mon, 16 May 2011 02:55:41 +0000 Maya 350644@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it looks incredible...perhaps even more so on you. Too bad about the linen though. I think jumpsuits have great potential for you, though, Inge.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-this-dressy-jumpsuit#post-350641 Mon, 16 May 2011 02:48:52 +0000 Refugee 350641@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-this-dressy-jumpsuit#post-350620 Mon, 16 May 2011 02:17:59 +0000 Angie 350620@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KILLER. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-this-dressy-jumpsuit#post-350617 Mon, 16 May 2011 02:16:20 +0000 sarah 350617@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like it on the model, but am wondering if you have to be 7 feet tall (oops, I mean 2.1 meters tall) to pull this off?! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-this-dressy-jumpsuit#post-350556 Mon, 16 May 2011 01:21:59 +0000 Mellllls 350556@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>it looks great in the picure. i'd love to see it on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-this-dressy-jumpsuit#post-350551 Mon, 16 May 2011 01:19:00 +0000 yublocka 350551@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it on the model, styled as is. I also think the appeal is more about the overall silhouette, rather than the fact it is a jumpsuit. A very similar look could be recreated with seperates in a more forgiving fabric than linen and also allowing more versatility to mix and match other outfits. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-this-dressy-jumpsuit#post-350515 Sun, 15 May 2011 23:46:07 +0000 annagybe 350515@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it but I'd be wary of linen. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-this-dressy-jumpsuit#post-350499 Sun, 15 May 2011 23:28:00 +0000 celia 350499@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Contrary to other people I like jumsuits and this one is beautiful.If you cam pull of this sillhouette of pants it is a yay from me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-this-dressy-jumpsuit#post-350496 Sun, 15 May 2011 23:26:23 +0000 Kate 350496@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it looks fab here! In reality it might not work as well for a variety of reasons (hard to get perfect fit, being linen, etc), but I think it looks great in this photo. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-this-dressy-jumpsuit#post-350493 Sun, 15 May 2011 23:25:28 +0000 Kari 350493@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I... like it a lot, surprisingly. (I am trying to be open minded about jumpsuits even though they aren't something I like for myself.) To me, this just looks like a smart outfit - the horizontal banding at the waist makes it look more like separates than a jumpsuit. A cropped jacket would be my first thought, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-think-of-this-dressy-jumpsuit#post-350486 Sun, 15 May 2011 23:17:46 +0000 Inge 350486@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I went shopping in Maastricht last week and have been a teeny bit obsessed with Max Mara ever since (they had a fab store in M).</p> <p>I was browsing their site and saw this jumpsuit. I love the retro dressy look and can totally picture this with a cropped fantastic leather jacket over it. Not sure about that colour for myself and apparently it is linen, so it might wrinkle terribly. Not a fan of that either.</p> <p>But in general: do you like it (yay) or do you think it's not so fab? (nay) </p>
