Yes. Much friendlier to me than the act 1 boots with heels. They are gorgeous. Just not as "practical". The sparkly bits notwithstanding. Hope I can squeeze in them !

Is there a zipper or are they just pull on? I really prefer zippers. It's hard to get a flattering boot shape without a zipper.

I'm definitely not buying the act I two tone boots. I thought I ruined the fabric toe of my slingbacks by scraping them a bit on a chair the other day. Fortunately it doesn't look too bad. But fabric toes and heels are just not practical.

Whoa thanks for the video Flowerlily!!!! Uhm... is there a zipper ? Might be hard to put them
On otherwise [emoji848]

Karenallen that's the turtleneck I was interested in seeing. There's a dress version of it. I don't know if I like the sleeves though. Where did you see it ? :smile: how much was it ? :smile:

Cruise is going to be so cool !! I wasn't sure but I think that dress is maybe a jumpsuit? Think Tilda Swinton wore it to haute couture. I'll have to take a peek.

Edited to say she wore a jacket and pants. Will have to see if that is a dress. So elegant :smile:
No idea on the price, my Nordstrom SA just sent me pics. Is this the dress?

Weird !!!! My Nordstrom person said they didn't order the turtleneck just the dress. I better ask her :). Yes that is the dress and it's around 2200.

I think the velcro jacket was a wise choice and it's a classic silhouette that you can have tailor made to remove the velcro. Personally I liked the velcro and would keep it as it was a Karl thing :)

Not a dumb question ! I believe those are coats ..... :) but could be used as dresses ? They were worn kind of like them in the show.

I hope there is a zipper. My SA helpfully texted first thing that they hadn't come in yet :) haha.

That's not bad for the dress. I can definitely see you in the dress.
 

So I ordered and received the black dress -
A quick review
It falls just above the knee (but I'm 5'8")
It's fairly heavy material
Called Double Crepe
with a full black Camilla silk lining
It has a very 1960s vibe
Could see Jackie in this -
It has an A line, pockets IMG_1504369312.030672.jpgIMG_1504369320.806778.jpgand hard to photograph but the sides are sewn in three panels that come to point - sort of an outer space "mod" detail
Will be a great go to dress for work
(This is absolutely my last Chanel rtw purchase until Cruise)
