The H&M Thread #2

Does anyone own this dress? I just ordered it because I had a coupon left and I know that the color looks great because I own a shirt in the same shade. I'm just not sure about the cut and what size to get.

^the dress is really wide. i think that makes it run big. or you love really wide clothes..

diesannie: I've only seen it in the store and also must say, it looked quite huge, I think you must really like the wide "shapeless" look. On the other hand the very top part might be small, dont know, but I think people with a bigger chest have had problems with some other garden collection dresses that were tight in the chest area.

I just got my delivery : 2 more garden collection pieces (brown shorts and the rose top ) as well as Chanel's jumpsuit and the some heels. When I was trying on the jumsuit my not exactly fashion victim mom entered to room and I was expecting some "what on earth are you wearing" but she loved it...

Im only not sure what to do with the shoes... the very front seems to be a little tight.

Well I own that dress but in white. I got my regular size, I'm a UK size 8. I have really large shoulders so the upper part is really fitted without being tight. I guess it will even look better with someone that is a regular size 8 on top. The size 10 was way too big.

It fits like this Heimstone dress that i also own. I think this is a much more correct perspective of the wideness dress than the one of the ad.

Thank you all! I don't mind wide clothing, so I'm curious to see how it looks. (If I don't like it, there is always ebay... those guys are crazy, you really get tempted to just buy thinks from the collection to sell it there. )

They are still available in the online store in every size (except 41) (I don't know if you have an online store in the UK though, sorry)

yes kate_is_goddess!!! those are the ones! i love them, how much are they? But we don't have an online store in the UK could anyone order them and post them over for me? I will pay paypal and pay extra for postage, it's the only way i will be able to get my hands on them would be SSSSOOOOOOOOOOO grateful

wow it looks great on you - i tried it and on me was horrible - lucky you !

Both of my maxi dresses are sooooo loose on me. I got it in the smallest size, and I completely drown in it. The length is perfect though.

 

[diesanni]

That pic makes me wish I was taller... I'd probably have to cut half of it off and still look like a stumpy dwarf.

 

[miss-am]

^it's really great! Miss-Am has this one I think. I have to check my store for it too.

Yep, that´s true. I like it a lot. I´ve seen it in black, too, as one of the other members.

Did she ever find it in?

I´ve got the dress in white. I´m a sixe 34/xs and it´s quite wide.

 

[diesanni]

^That is such a cute look! I want to try this dress on now. Damn their slow online-business.

for some reason i like this look -maybe not the scarf with the pants but separately

 

[The_Ida]

^I KNOW! I want the jacket really bad. Knitted trousers look so comfy, I don't own any though

 

[*k.a.t.e*]

This weekend I bought the maxi dress Glitch posted above but with black and white stripes, two shorter jersey summer dresses (one bright turquoise with feathers and parrots on and the other navy and white tie dye) and I finally found this maxi dress below! It's super super long though, I'm 5"7 and I put on my highest wedges to make me about 5"11/6ft and it was still too long by a couple of inches! I'll have to take it up I think...

^I've seen that maxi dress in stores too...have been spending too much money lately, so I'll skip it
