It gets hot and humid here and long sleeves definitely would not work. I think the frayed hem is cute, I've always liked it and am excited to see more this year. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-denim-dress-to-order#post-1659481 Thu, 12 May 2016 15:43:52 +0000 Peri 1659481@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks everyone! I guess the thing will be to get several and try. I like the look of all of them, so it will come down to which one likes me. More than that, it will come down to fabric. Cause <b>Greycat6</b>...yikes, buzzkill! 75-80 with no humidity....like March and April? Haha, those days are already gone.</p> <p><b>Suz&nbsp;</b>I like the DEX one you found. That is really what I had in my mental image. Now to find it in the US!</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-denim-dress-to-order#post-1659438 Thu, 12 May 2016 14:30:53 +0000 Angie 1659438@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote #1 or #2.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-denim-dress-to-order#post-1659362 Thu, 12 May 2016 11:57:50 +0000 Ledonna N. 1659362@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>1&amp;4. 4 because it has pockets. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-denim-dress-to-order#post-1659359 Thu, 12 May 2016 11:54:50 +0000 El Cee 1659359@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think #4 is fabulous and I very much like the frayed hem, especially for a casual summer look. I also like the idea of a linen or linen-blend dress (like #3) for the real heat of summer when denim could be too heavy. Even something in a rayon or a tencel/lyocell fabrication could work well in summer heat.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-denim-dress-to-order#post-1659278 Thu, 12 May 2016 05:24:17 +0000 greycat6 1659278@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Peri,</p> <p>I have tried on the Madewell dress and loved everything about it - except the way it fit me. The dress fabric was very nice quality. Lighter weight denim yet enough heft so it had a drape. It would be perfect for 75-80 degree day with low humidity. The hem does add interest to what is a basic shirt dress. The collar can be popped up if you like that look. I so wanted this one to come home with me but the fit was too big. I have narrow shoulders and rib cage and commonly look like I'm wearing a big sack if there is not enough structure and that is how I felt in this dress even in the smallest size. The length ended about 2" above my knee. This felt a little short for me (I need to make peace with my knees) but I could have lived with it if the fit was better elsewhere. For reference, I'm 5'4". </p> <p>Do let us know if you decide to order any of these. I'm still on my denim dress quest. Good luck! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-denim-dress-to-order#post-1659264 Thu, 12 May 2016 04:23:20 +0000 Bijou 1659264@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#4 gets my vote. I like the hem and think it works well at any age - it gives the dress some texture and interest and keeps it casual enough to work with any casual shoe or sandal in the warm weather. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-denim-dress-to-order#post-1659218 Thu, 12 May 2016 02:34:32 +0000 Suz 1659218@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So, I've been thinking some more...here are a few more options. I know you can't get from The Bay but I think the brands are available elsewhere for you. </p> <p>And I was thinking, what about the (non denim) dress that Elizabeth P is considering from Eileen Fisher? It would also look great with sneakers and you have done well with Eileen Fisher in the past. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-denim-dress-to-order#post-1659195 Thu, 12 May 2016 02:00:33 +0000 Suz 1659195@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the idea of a denim dress for you, Peri! I hope you will order a couple and compare. I understand what you are saying about sleeves. My climate is nowhere near as hot as yours but I don't wear my chambray sleeved shirtdress on our hottest days. (Below in Finds) I save it for mid-range summer temps (mid range for us), days when the humidity is low, or times when I'll be in an AC environment.&nbsp;</p> <p>How about trying the linen one just to see?&nbsp;</p> <p>And here's another option...a linen blend from Aritzia. Linen blends tend to wrinkle less. I have ordered it for myself but it is not here yet. Comes in two shades of denim blue.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-denim-dress-to-order#post-1659186 Thu, 12 May 2016 01:52:25 +0000 Beth Ann 1659186@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the third one -- in navy. &nbsp;That's the linen, yes? &nbsp;In my experience, linen is less obviously wrinkly in dark colors, and is amazingly cool. &nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-denim-dress-to-order#post-1659183 Thu, 12 May 2016 01:48:51 +0000 Anonymous 1659183@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the frayed hem, Peri! I think an interesting hem adds an intentional, finished look to a shirt dress. I also like the look of the second (Kut) dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-denim-dress-to-order#post-1659182 Thu, 12 May 2016 01:47:39 +0000 always trying 1659182@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like all but #1.&nbsp; I was looking at 2 or 4 myself, but then decided to hold off on a shirt dress like the denim&nbsp; for now.&nbsp; the hem&nbsp;on 4 is very current so I vote for it. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/which-denim-dress-to-order#post-1659171 Thu, 12 May 2016 01:35:37 +0000 Peri 1659171@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm taking it as my summer challenge...as challenged by Angie...to try wearing a dress with my gym shoes that I am stuck wearing (long boring story). I decided "denim" would be an easier option because I've seen some pics with denim dresses and sneakers. I'm looking for a sporty-casual vibe.&nbsp;</p> <p>These are sitting in my basket. I'm leaning towards the last two because I have major concerns about long sleeves not working with my summer weather, no matter how light the material. Linen might be a pain, so really I'm leaning towards the last one. Is the "hem" too silly?</p> <p>Taking any other suggestions as well! Thanks!</p>
