That this is worth $98. I decided to order it a couple weeks ago and when I placed the order I was contacted and told that it was backordered until the end of July. So I cancelled my order. I hate to spend that much on one item, but then I think of how many outfits I could put together with it. Does everyone who owns it/has seen it think it's worth the money? I don't like it on the model, but I'm that way with a lot of anthro stuff.
I think that you should definitely get it. It might not be worth $98 to someone else, but I think that b/c you love it so much and have outfits planned for it that you'll get your money's worth.
I think it runs kind of big. I tried it on in a 4, and it was baggy on me. You can check my thread styles for pics of my body, I'm small, but not a size 2. I am 5'6", 132 lbs, solid size 4 or 28 (27 in vanity sizing), 34B....
There are lots at the anthro in georgetown too. I wore mine to a party this weekend, and got tons of compliments, if that helps!
Fit: I wear a 4 in gap, and I got a 4 in this top too. I am tall (5'9"), but small on top (34B).
Problem: I don't like the sash tied in the front. It looks odd. So I wear mine in a bow in the back. Also, the silk is so very delicate, I don't think this top will be in heavy outfit rotation. I am going to keep dry cleaning to a minimum.
I vote get it, and if you are lucky like me, the store won't charge you shipping (that happened with a sweater I got from the B'ham store last week).
It's not shiny, happily. I have worn mine with jeans (every top I own must go with jeans), chocolate brown pants and a skirt I just got at banana, but it's not online. It is exactly like this one:
but in a heavier satin material. And it's taupe. I should probably post a picture.
That's okay - I called a store and there shipping it to me and told me it should only take a couple days to recieve it. I'm not ever going to stop thinking about it, until I see it in person and try it on! I can always ship it back if needed . Thanks for all of your help, hopefully I'll have the same luck with it that you have!

GOOD FOR YOU! Didn't you already post an outfit you can wear this with? teal gap pants?? I thought you'd already bought this! so, since I was already impressed with your outfit foresight I am even happier for you!
