nah, I don't like the drawstring tank dress. I've tried it on and it is SO unflattering.

 

[gossiping]

i've never seen it in the store so i might tomorrow

Really?It looks like one of those dresses that flatters everyone. Oh boo.

I'm looking into buying a dress from this place.. can someone perhaps fill me in on the sizing there? It'll be my first purchase, and online, too, so I have little to no clue what I'm doing.

I'm going for the Cotton Spandex Jersey Bandeau Dress , and I'm 5' 4", 115 lbs, with a very small chest. I'm rather thin and also am a teen, usually wearing junior sizes, so I'm totally lost. According to the site I'm about on the low end of a Medium, but I'm thinking a small may fit better, especially based on the reveiws..

Does anyone know if this dress runs small or large, or about the shrinkage? Or any other advice? I'd really appreciate it.

 

[gossiping]

well i have bought a strapless dress from there before (not that exact one tho) but i think even the size L is pretty small, normally i'm an S in clothes but there i can get a size M and it will still be tight

from AA.net

this is SO cute. very olsen-y. however, it is only available in M. and my clothes from AA are usually often XS or S. hm. also, I am wondering if anyone has this one:

also from AA.

how is the sizing in this one? it's unisex and I want it to fit like the model.

 

[m4ryb3ar]

spearmint, i think sizing at aa runs small. the sizes i wear at aa vary from XS to L. i always tend to size up if im unsure bc most of their things will shrink or can shrink if you want them to. i think u will fit into a S well, but it will shrink if you put it in the dryer. so it really depends on how you'll be taking care of it. however, if you do order a M then u can just throw it normally in the wash&dry and itll fit fine. i dont think it'll be loose on you since im ab the same size as you and i have the dress in a small and medium.

what's the first t-shirt?
is it sheer?

i like the tie-dye one as well actually...
haven't seen it in person but if it's unisex i would guess that the model is wearing an xs or a small...

 

[HOLLY ASTERA]

^yes, it is sheer and seems very soft. I think I'll try to get an xs since I already have a s in one of theirs unisex shirts and it is not very flattering..

 

[atlantis]

how is this sheer shirt called? couldn't find it...

Also what do people think..I am 6ft, with light brown hair and blue eyes(i'm in my avatar )...would be tanned for this and wearing it with black heels..

(btw the venue is a cocktail bar in Soho in London, then a club)

i was just about to post the white v neck sheer tee too lol. i really want to get one but im unsure if im willing to pay £32 for a tee? and i was wondering about the sizing too, i would try one on but the nearest AA to me is a 45 minute train ride away, and its not cheap to get there

 

[206viscose]

mmm yes i have my eye on the see-thru vneck

 

[lucy92]

i bought these (the cotton spandex jersey placket legging) last week. they are very comfortable. i was disappointed that my AA store didnt have any sheer 3/4 leggings...i ended up buying these instead...

I usually just buy basic tops and gymwear from AA but I absolutely love their Fine Jersey T Dress.

 

[eilra]

has anyone here bought one of their "Le Sac" dress? Its looks pretty fun/versatile...

 

[rainy_spring]

i don't own the le sac dress but a lot of my friends have it and i borrow it all the time, it really is fun and versatile, and it looks great on everyone! and there are so many different ways to wear it, i'd really recommend it!
