I need to just stop ordering from AT for awhile because I'm striking out. At least I am returning everything.
I was trying to pick just items that might change the wardrobe landscape or fill a hole.
I tried this taffeta skirt to see if it would be a versatile, classic dressy capsule item, and high-waisted items are harder to come by. It reminded me a bit of the Halogen striped taffeta-type skirt that several Fabbers have, with maybe a better fit for me. Dressy separates are a more reasonable goal for me since dress fit remains something of a HEWI, plus separates can dress up or down a bit. (Was thinking it might go with the BR metallic tuxedo jacket, but that so far isn't working out).
The waist fit and length were good, and it had pockets, but the fabrication was just too heavy. A bit of body or crinkle I was expecting, but it just was not luxe or dressy/delicate enough.
