Re: Isaac Mizrahi - if between sizes, size up or down?

@winamac1  I agree - he keeps saying it's so much like a tee, right?  No I don't think so!  It's all lace not at all like a tee shirt. Right?

 

If I had dressy places to go, maybe, but I don't and I'm not wearing it like a tee to the grocery store shlepping groceries, right? Gigantic dog food bags from the pet store, right? Taking my dog on a walk at 9Am, right? scopping poop and carrying it on our walk, right? 

 

He baffles me listening to him which is why I don't listen to him.

 

RIght? 

 

I so wanted to count how many times he said this word in any show so far...RIGHT?????

It's not like a tee and I wish he'd put a cork in it and who wears a double layer garment in the summer.   Sheesh!

Re: Isaac Mizrahi - if between sizes, size up or down?

Based on what I saw on some of the models, I would go up.  I think if it is too tight in the bust the material stretches and it just doesn't look right.

I'm the odd one out.  I do not like this TSV at all.  I didn't think anyone looked good on it, and I did not like the sleeve length.  I thought the fit was off on everyone.  I think one needs to be super small in the waist with an average-sized bust to pull this off.  I agree with you--you can't be huge busted or small busted to look good in this due to how it fits.

 

  The colors are lovely though.

 

 


No you are not.  In addition to sleeve length, the seam under the bust is not particularly flattering. It looks like a bridesmaid's dress (from the 80's) cut off for additional wear.

 

Based on the IM lace maxi dresses I received, I'm sure the quality of the lace is nice.

 


I don't know how or why this could be a top seller.  It just looks scratchy and uncomfortable.  The whole proportion seems off too.

Re: Isaac Mizrahi - if between sizes, size up or down?

I've found his items to run very large on me.  I've purchased a couple dresses and sweaters and probably wore each once and donated.  The colors were pretty, and items cute, but I won't purchase any of his items again.

Hi Pink.  He does say..."right" a lot.... and "she"   "she has to have this"..."she "gets" it", LOL.

 

I think we are all the "she's" and "shirley" per Lisa Rinna.   ugghhh

 

 

Well this "she" is not buying it.

For the TSV, if between sizes, would you recommend sizing up or sizing down?

 

Thanks for any recommenations.


@Julie_23 -  I always look at the garment sizing info + description about the fit. The description for fit suggests there is no added ease at the bust so I think it would be better to size up. I also fall between sizes for this top & would need to size up. The navy is beautiful as is the brilliant citron yellow tone. What color are you thinking about buying? HTH'S!

Re: Isaac Mizrahi - if between sizes, size up or down?

I personally think that most of the models and hosts often wear clothes that are too tight on them.  I noticed that the TSV  today  was pulling across the bust on some of the models and too  narrow in the shoulders on one of the slimmer models. This does not do justice to the clothes or the customers trying to make a decision on whether to buy or not.

Just my opinion....
