Looks great on you! I can't wait to wear mine and as I said in my edited post I'm keeping the smaller size as it fits better. The bigger size hung weirdly from my shoulders and just didn't sit correctly under the bust. I love the red, for some reason the white color in the picture gave me a weird night dress type vibe, it probably doesn't look that way IRL though !
I love it! So glad you got the red, it looks smashing on you.
I was tempted myself, but this would probably be a poor choice for me, as it would not be a summer dress (can’t do long sleeves in summer) and our transitional seasons are too short to bother. And it would probably not work for winter.
So happy it works for you though! Maybe I’ll find a good summer-for-me version in the coming months.
How LOVELY, you all are. Thank you for the awfully kind words (and chuckles), ladies. I can't wait to wear the dress in three months.....
Jenni, YES on the shoes. This is what I said to Suntiger who had the same thought:
"It's those low volume feet of mine. That said, I'm tilting my foot and accentuating the gap, IYKWIM. They fit better in person, and I WILL make sure they don't rub there before I commit to them. Thank you" .
May I ask what you mean by "not Boden quality on the seams and hems"? I just got my very first Boden sweater, and am not sure I'm impressed. Whether it plays well with other pieces will be the real test, but it wouldn't hurt to have my eyes opened to other strong points it may have.
FashIntern, I'm comparing WOVEN seams and hems. French seams, binding, neat stitching, fusing, lining. The FP dress has basic overlocked seams. Cheap production operation. Your item is a knit - so not comparable in the same way.
Beautiful dress and the color is perfect on you. I am pleasantly surprised the print doesn't look like a "country handkerchief" like I was worrying about from the stock photo. But THOSE SHOES!!!! ARE TO DIE FOR. I absolutely love them. I may copy you. ....we have similar sartorial tastes in footwear and somewhat similar foot issues.
