Thank you Dear Ari for the pic of shampoos for wools and silk, I will buy those and try at home to wash my stuff.
So I also saw these coats both were lovely but not suitable for my weather so ended up getting this super soft skirt! Very limited in us and so happy I found it in my size.
Urggggg [emoji51][emoji51][emoji36] I can't upload my pics
 
The robot suit runs large. if the rest of the skirts fits, it is an easy fix just letting out the waist. My issue is with the hip area. I normally have to size up to fit the thunder thighs and then tighten the waistline. For the robot skirt the 36 fits generously whereas the Ritz skirt I had to go up to 38.

For the jackets, robot is 34 vs Ritz 38.

So weird ! I tried the robot jacket and I had to go up to a 40 cos of the shoulders. The 38 ritz fit in the shoulders but not the waist :)

I think the rest of the skirt worked so maybe the 38 w adjustments at the waistband could also work out. Will see :)

Thunder thighs, you?? No wayyyyy :)
 
Those
Are beautiful dresses Ari! I showed up too late to the game to get them. I hope the smell works its way out

I tried the robot and I love it w the black tee. It's a bit larger than the cosmopolite skirt but I think I would need the 40. I just hate things to be tight at my waistband. This was the 38, I suppose could always let it out a bit if needed ?View attachment 3794404
You don't want to size up because you will lose the slim line around the lower thighs/knees and it will look frumpy. Better to let out the waist.
 
@pigleto972001 in relation to the rest of me. True.

I tried the black wool dress with the belt but I think I need a smaller size (and also wear the correct under garment ahem). It was too long and rather shapeless on me. Another lady was trying the same size and she fills up the dress beautifully.

I thought the aqua cashmere dress with the pearl is really cute. The colour is so fresh. Something to consider if it makes sales. Just not enough wear at full price.

Love the aqua cashmere dress on you. I believe it also comes in a regular sweater? It would be a great sale find!

Yes it is available in a sweater. It is just hard to incorporate cashmere sweater/dress in the tropics even if the indoor AC here are mostly freezing. Cardigan and shawls are friendlier as they can be put on/removed easily. Hence the popularity of Chanel cardigans/jackets here.

Ah yes, I forgot you were in the tropics! I wouldn't wear cashmere dresses or sweaters if I were you, either haha.

I love that color !!!! I don't think they got it in the US sadly. And I love it in the sweater.

The dress is lovely. I love the black one on you. I think a size down will work wonderfully and the belt emphasizes your waist :)

January is so far away for sales !!!

I'm biased because I have the black dress in long sleeve version but I love it on you
You need at least one size down
What I love about this dress is that it the perfect dress for shawls and scarves and easy to travel with
You have an enviable figure, my dear.

I think both look lovely on you. You just need a smaller size in the wool dress.

Ah Ari, yes then there is the issue of the height of the boot with the coat and the dress or skirt. It all gives me a headache. I keep an extra coat in the back of my car in case I break down by the side of the road. Seriously [emoji23]

I agree with TT on this one. I think the black dress is fabulous on you. Your waist looks teeny tiny... I haven't loved the big CC belts but this is super cute!

I absolutely love the black dress on you. Even in this oversized look. I suppose I wouldn't look as good in it but I'm ready to try it.
