karen kane dress sizing?

cyan45

hi ladies!

i'm thinking about this lovely faux wrap, 3/4 sleeve jersey dress but am unsure if KK runs small or true to size? i'm between an 8 & 10 and nordstroms doesn't carry it in store so i can't try before i buy

also, would this suit someone with hips? i am a pear/hourglass (small bust/waist + even shoulders/hips) and worry my lower half will look bulky with the extra bunching/ruffle...?

so pretty though thanks for your thoughts.

I find them TTS. I wear a medium and I'm generally an 8. The dress is gorgeous. I think it would suit many body types and think the wrap with the draping detail in the front would be very flattering.

Gorgeous dress! If you have to order it, you could always order your first size and return it if it doesn't work. Nordie's free shipping and returns makes it easy to try on

Kk does not run smsll. This dress will probably look great on you. I have the summer version of the K K cascade dress. I wear an8 or a 10 and the medium probably would have been the best fit. But I have the large as it was all that was available when I ordered. I still love it; this kind of dress is forgiving. You could order both and see which you like best, returning the reject. If you must order one, I'd start with M.
