Not going to work for me then

Here is the new dress that I am really wanting to try. It is available at Nordstrom, BG=no tax, NM. I am going to SCP next week where they have a DVF shop as well as all the major stores. I am at the point with my dresses that I can not justify buying anything at full price since I already have so much that hasn't been worn. Though this has me wanting to pull the trigger. I love that it is a faux-wrap style. Looks like it just slips on. I also need to check the length of the dress since it says mid-thigh, but that isn't always reliable. Sizing up 1 size might make it long enough. Then again some of the pictures make the dress look knee length.
Has anyone here seen or tried this dress?

This is the first I've seen of it. Good color for late summer transition into fall.
I was thinking the same thing. Especially here in SoCal where it can be in the 90's in October. I will look for the dress when I get to the mall next week and let you know what I think.
Thanks ladies - I'm slowly getting back into wearing my DVF. I'm finding dresses that i have never worn in my closet. I also went to the outlet and got bit by the bug - LOL
I picked up 2 Flueretts - black/brown cheeta print and blue Moroccan Ditsy and 2 new Julians.
For years I was very self conscious about my mid-section and thought the wraps would draw attention, but it's the exact opposite. I feel great in them!

This is absolutely gorgeous - really like the slip-on idea. Please keep us posted on the fit once you give it a try.
I got my Outnet order today - some great prints in the traditional 100% silk wrap (collared style) and also sleeveless, but sadly nothing worked for me. For various reasons mentioned in this thread, I think the DVF wrap style doesn't quite work for me, but I'm not entirely giving up yet.
I agree. I actually think that the wrap dress looks better on me now that I weigh about 15 lbs more than I use to.
I hope to try the dress on today and will let you know what I think.
Though the Anniversary Sale has ended, there are still several DVF dresses on sale on the Nordstrom website, especially in the smaller sizes.
I see from earlier posts that others have found inconsistent sizing in the DVF dresses. In my very limited experience trying on a dozen or more dresses in the past two weeks, this line has some of the most inconsistent sizing I have seen, even in the same style!
Today I tried another Reina dress on in the same size as the one I just returned from the DVF website sale. This other one is much more generously cut. Strange!

Love the new confetti print advertised in the DVF e-mails, but I would not be able to make that dress (the way it is styled on the model) look work-appropriate!
Look beautiful on you. I love the print.Here's my new Layla in Dancing Explosion. Added a silk ribbon as a belt to make it work appropriate
I have found sizing very inconsistent even within the same size of the same dress. Which is why I would never buy any of her dresses that were a final sale.

Love the colors in this print!
