Linea by Louis Dell'Olio

I just tried on the green WK dress.  I love it. Love the elbow sleeves, the neckline and the dark green is beautiful. Tea length on me, 5’4”.  A classic dress which drapes beautifully. I’m going back for the black.  And I’m looking for more in this beautiful dark green color. I bought the regular size small and I’m about 144 lbs, if that helps.

I’m glad you love the dress too - and for the same reasons!  The green is so gorgeous.  I too wish he’d do more in this color.  Louis did a WK swing sweater in a similar color last year or so, but I have it stored away so am unsure how the colors compare.    If the dark magenta color was a good color on me, I’d get that too, this dress is that good that I’d get multiples.  So classic.  Enjoy your new dress!

Great reviews! @crazycockermom. 

I’m holding off on my review about the WK Petite Green dress because I want to see it in the Small vs. the size (Medium) I bought based on X back & chest measurements. The Small has shipped so I will know in a week how it compares,

Thanks JJM!  I always find it helpful when people post on how something fits, especially if they are in between sizes like me, so I tried to share how my items fit.   

Hope you get the other dress soon.  Looking forward to your review!

OMG I just received the green last night and it is a beautiful rich jeweltone color.  I ordered the xl petite and it fits perfectly, knee length not as heavy as I expected but still substantial.  I so love the elbow sleeve length.

I also received the slate blue placement print blouse another beauty.   I love that the print can be seen coming and going. I stayed with my regular xl size even though I am busty and it is still roomy but lays nicely all around, love the neckline and the front pleat too the sleeves were a tad long as I mentioned in my review but not a problem.

Glad you love the dress too!!

I also got the slate blue blouse. It’s beautiful. I just wonder if I should’ve sized up. I am not busty but the pleats in the front are “open” if that makes any sense. I’m also not sure the pleats were pressed correctly.

I laid the blouse flat on an ironing board and lightly repressed them. Mine came out very good.

Thanks - I’ll try that before coming to any conclusions.

The delayed package arrived to me today. We had mail on hold because we had visited our 1st grandchild. 

The Small fits a lot better than the Medium which went back today. It is not shapeless as the Medium was on me. The bust is semi fitted as is the waist & there is some swing (not an exaggeration of it) at the hip region. Sleeves look great & it will be a nice fall dress. Still waiting for the sage Big Deal Necklace set to ship.

So glad the smaller size worked better for you!!

How do you like the sage necklace with it? I ordered the blue and plum necklaces but passed on the sage one because I got that triple strand celadon one from earlier this year (last year?). But I’m wondering if I should’ve picked it up anyway. I don’t wear red much but am tempted by the berry too.

My 4 necklaces are lost somewhere in UPS land! I reordered them again. Keeping fingers crossed that the 2nd order ships without mishap. I wait till the 29th before requesting a refund on the original order according to Q C/S.
