I want to thank you, Suz! I mostly avoid BR now but after seeing you in the dress, I went yesterday and bought a navy one. I plan to wear it over pants. I like how it fits - I bough a petite dress in size S, my usual size in BR. The length is to the top of my knees and it’s fluid but not too oversized. My only problem is that all but one coat I have are shorter than a dress. So, I’m still undecided but this is the best sweater dress I’ve tried so far in terms of fit. Thanks again!
For coats...yes. This is an issue! I have a black trench coat that works with it, and I'm hoping I can also wear it with a cocoon coat that is a little shorter. But I'm still experimenting. I have yet to figure out the perfect solution for midis in winter -- and this isn't even a midi!!
Suz, I thought it is acceptable for a dress to stick out from under a coat when wearing with tights. I would not know, I have a few dresses and I wear them over pants. It looks much worse when a coat is too short. I long for summer
I ordered this sweater dress in the same light grey color. It came and is going back. I ordered a small for length and it is huge on me with the length still being iffy. The dress is soft and a great neutral. It is extra cute with button slits at the sides. It is meant for a more curvy figure than mine and the drop sleeves look like they don't know what they want to be on me. I am sad as this dress is exactly what I wanted.
I got the XS in this as I always do in BR stuff -- XS or 0 (sometimes a 2 for pants and jeans).
So sorry it did not work for you. I must be a tiny bit shorter and/or each item is a slightly different length. I saw on the models that some are at the knee (like mine is), some are below the knee (on a model????) and some are a bit shorter. So...inconsistencies, I suspect.
