Dior RTW

[Tasha1]

Oh my goodness I am in love with that jacket in the first pix!!!

me too, hope to get my size

Love the tulle skirt!

thank you, I wear the skirt all year around, comfortable and easy to team with everything

Ran to the boutique for a couple of cardigans. Tried on pants and this leopard sweater as well. The sweater is very boxy and this was too big. My SA is going to bring in a smaller size.

I know the feeling! They’re comfy. They’re not narrow. And they’re low. they also come in natural leopard which I might pick up later depending on how these work. But, every shoe is comfy in the store lol. I’ve had ankle cartilege replacement surgery, so I can no longer wear my favorite diors (pic below) . but I cannot bear to give them up.

Re RTW, I’m still not 100% convinced that a low squared toe shoe goes with full, pleated, thick cotton maxi skirt. I’ve seen nuns IRL in square toed low heels and full, long, dark pleated skirts. SA convinced me that the low heels would be perfect with these Dior separates. (Part of me thinks calf hair designer collaboration black birkenstock arizonas would work better lol) The othe rpart of me is wondering if the blue leopard shoe is muted enough to mix with the palm skirt

@helwynn, welcome! I haven’t seen the puffer coat IRL yet, but it’s really cute in the pics above ! hope you can get it!

Go with your instincts because you have a great sense of proportions and what works best for/on you

Finally, I visited the Dior boutique. My leopard theme was short, neither my shape nor my size.
@880
the leopard denim jacket was a disaster on me, too bulky
those leopard shoes didn't fit me
the blue dress with a red stripe was short for my height
but I bought a sweater, the last pic.

The first pic-- need a size up, love the jacket, hope they will find my size.
And in September the cruise collection 2022 is arriving.

Dear American ladies, fine when you generously share your pics. Here, I can only dream of your choices.

I realise we only have 1 pic to go on but I don't think the jacket looks a disaster, but if it didn't feel right then bye bye leopard. There will always be amazing things coming in.

I had the same issue, got a size down, and it was the same, even the leopard denim jacket was boxy as well

but I don't think the jacket looks a disaster

do you mean my pic?

the jacket is very stretchy, that's why i managed to fit in, and my back was not complemented, my boobs were very pressed. But the fabric and the cut are amazing

Thanks for your kind words, @papertiger. I value them, and your opinion generally, very much.

@Tasha1, the knit grey leopard bag jacket did not fit me either. Am thinking the bar jacket pattern, even in a stretchy knit, differs too much in shoulder to waist ratio, even when I go up a size. The pattern is sadly not for my current body type. On the other hand, the bar jacket is usually priced the highest, so not fitting into one saves some money for other things I did love the sweater that you ended up getting! Hugs

thank you, dear, it is a good buy
the worse thing I heard yesterday is a new price increase

My SA said that some customers of hers fit in any garment and they can buy remotely with ease, as for me, I need to try on everything

The sweater is adorable! The jacket in the first pic looks great as well. I hope they find your size!

Just saw the looks for cruise. Not for my body type or lifestyle. There’s a harness worn over white gauzy Grecian looking ensembles. And a breastplate looking thing. And a denim fishnet or mesh tank top. Sorry I cannot seem to post it here.

@880 Completely agree with you. I actually find the harness thing pictured below disturbing and the other Grecian ensembles do not suit me at all. The stripe dress is the only one I am considering since it’s a cut that works for me.

Thank you! It was slim pickings and even with the stripe dress, I think I would have preferred in a solid color or a different print.

Hello RTW fans, i was curious if you prefer to buy in boutique or at a department store? I’m going to hopefully buy a few pieces this week and was curious if there were pros or cons to consider. For reference I’ve only bought Chanel RTW and I always do that in boutique. Thank you!

In Canada there are not many department stores that (only nordstorm and holts but i always think the selection is limited). I'd prefer to buy in boutique.
