I am late to your thread but preferred XL also. You have to feel comfortable with what you're doing and yay for compliments! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/xl-or-l-size-dress#post-1819215 Wed, 28 Jun 2017 01:16:12 +0000 Zaeobi 1819215@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the feedback! I think maybe it's the angle of the pictures (difficult to take eye level photos in a small dressing room) but the dress length is actually quite a nice midi length on me. </p> <p>I appreciate the other Fabbers telling me I should wear shorter skirts for it to look more flattering on me, but I'm honestly not comfortable doing so without tights. Since I plan to wear this mainly as a summer dress, I think I'll stick to this length for now - it's part of my happiness factor, &amp; I already got compliments wearing it today! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/xl-or-l-size-dress#post-1819098 Tue, 27 Jun 2017 17:37:12 +0000 rachylou 1819098@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I thought what Angie said. Prefer the XL, thought the hem was rather long. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/xl-or-l-size-dress#post-1819076 Tue, 27 Jun 2017 15:40:36 +0000 Elle 1819076@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also prefer the XL. &nbsp;If you do follow Angie's advice you might ask if they hem dresses - they do hem pants for free.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/xl-or-l-size-dress#post-1819036 Tue, 27 Jun 2017 12:36:21 +0000 Suz 1819036@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I prefer the larger of the two.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/xl-or-l-size-dress#post-1819028 Tue, 27 Jun 2017 11:58:44 +0000 Column 1819028@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another XL vote--no undie lines. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/xl-or-l-size-dress#post-1819015 Tue, 27 Jun 2017 10:59:48 +0000 Amy Isabella 1819015@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I prefer the XL on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/xl-or-l-size-dress#post-1818992 Tue, 27 Jun 2017 05:33:21 +0000 Gigi 1818992@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I prefer the XL; it seems to drape better. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/xl-or-l-size-dress#post-1818972 Tue, 27 Jun 2017 02:03:24 +0000 Anonymous 1818972@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also prefer the XL in this knit dress. If it is washable, it will probably shrink a little. You could add a belt to shorten it a bit, although having it shortened may be the best tactic. I like your long chain necklace with the dress. You could also use scarves and toppers to change the look if you wanted to. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/xl-or-l-size-dress#post-1818965 Tue, 27 Jun 2017 01:42:38 +0000 Angie 1818965@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I prefer the XL of the two, but do find it a little long for your height.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/xl-or-l-size-dress#post-1818954 Tue, 27 Jun 2017 01:16:23 +0000 Zaeobi 1818954@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I tried on this long 'bra dress' from Uniqlo (so called because it comes with chest padding attached - a little strange, but at least it means not having to fiddle with bra straps during sweltering heat)! </p> <p>It's supposed to be a 'midi length', but I'm not sure whether the extra large or large size fits me better overall. My lumps &amp; bumps are still a little visible, but I thought I'd try something a little more fitted. What do you think? </p> <p>(Photos are XL first, then #6 as a divider, then L size) </p>
