So I have NO idea how to multi-quote on this new TPF format, but I want to say THANK YOU to all of you lovely ladies who commented and gave advice on the Elsie. I am not upset and really did want honest opinions. I think I am going to keep it, I do like it, and maybe I can have it streamlined a bit by my lovely tailor. Thanks all! :flowers:

Greentea: Thank you dear! I went a bit non-traditional festive (no red/green).

I rarely dress in red or green for holiday events - I think we are the most festive when we wear what looks amazing on us, right?!!!! :p;):D:graucho:

Need your opinion ladies. I got a dvf dress during the saks sale for a good price and have been hooked ever since. I prefer long sleeve dresses. Well there is a new dvf dress on eBay from a 2007 collection and I love the print but it is short sleeved and listed for nearly full retail from 2007. She is asking $350 for it. Does that sound too high for a 5 year old wrap dress with short sleeves?

:ty: bayside, madeofdreams and rock_girl!

Greentea: ITA! However, there were a few "ugly sweater" offenders at the party last night! :rolleyes:

fashion16: I would not pay an eBayer $350 for a 2007 dress. That's ridiculous.

Duke I agree with the other comments. I love the neckline but it does nothing for your fabulous figure.

I'm torn. I think if u want honest opinions, i think the dress doesn't really flatter you. I can say this cause you rock all the other dvf dresses I've seen on this thread. This one isnt at "that" level. All your beautiful modeling fotos have set up higher expectations.

The neckline of the dress is really interesting, but it lacks definition of the waist. Can you belt it?

If you could nip in the waist, then it would be a keeper.

It's not as flattering on you as so many of your other dresses, this one is too boxy and just isn't doing your fabulous figure justice

Awww - this has such possibilities! So chic!
The neckline and sleeves look great! The bottom needs maybe some nipping for some definition?

Hey ladies, I wore my new Julian today for the first time and my 6 month old nephew threw up milk on me. I just dropped it off at the dry cleaners to be cleaned but was wondering if anyone had any luck washing their DVF wraps in the washing machine with delicate cycle and woolite? I sometimes do this with my dry clean only items but since this was LITERALLY my new wrap, I played it safe with the dry cleaners. I was wondering if delicate/hand wash cycle would work in the future?

I wouldn't take a chance. DVF costs way too much to have it ruined by the wash :oh: I have used the home dry cleaning stuff with great success, though (either Dryel or Woolite dry cleaning stuff). That stuff is great for freshening up items between trips to the dry cleaner, but every few wears I still take my stuff in to have it professionally cleaned.
