Round 2 - red anthro dress
Permalink Closed


Ok, went to anthro at lunch and the dress was there! Yay! I tried on a size smaller and it was still pretty damn baggy. So, I ended up getting two sizes smaller. The sales associate convinced me this fit the best. Does it look better?

I think this dress looks way better than the bigger one. It looks the same on you as it did on me. Nice!

it looks way better, but for some reason it's not "speaking" to me. but i think the fabric/etc just doesn't translate well in the picture.

I like it.  I think once you add some accessories and maybe try some tights and cute mary janes it will be super cute.  Oh, and maybe a scarf in the late fall/winter.

I think it looks much better on you, but I agree w/erin - the dress isn't really doing much for me.  I tried it on tonight @ Anthro and I think I just don't like the dress much.  I had to size down too, and I just didn't care much for the orangish color on my fair skin and I just think there will be a cuter shirt dresses out there this fall.  All that being said, if you do decide to keep it, if anyone can make it work - it's you.   Hope that makes sense!

Ok, this dress is not meant to be!! I was puting it on tonight to show the BF and one of the buttons just ripped right off. It wasn't like it just fell off, it like ripped a good chunk of the material with it. I'm so pissed!

Anthro will take it back, right??

Yes.  They are really great about returns.  I had a shirt that got a discolored spot in the fabric after like 6 months and they still took it back.

Whatever! Don't feel bad! I really like the dress..I was totally shocked when the button just ripped off like that.

If Anthro doesn't take it back I'm going to cry.

How disappointing, Kitty! Dont worry- they will take it back with no problem, and you will find something you will be more sure about, and happy with. The dress does look really nice on you, but for that kind of money the buttons and material should not do that.I will keep an eye open, if I see something in similar silhoette I will let you know.
