Tory Burch Fall 2014: Maxine Dress, Zandi Dress, Tatum Dress, Libby Dress, Walker Cargo

There are lots of pretty work-appropriate dresses for Fall from Tory Burch. I was able to try on a few on Friday.

This dress is the same print as the Velda Tunic I reviewed, which I loved. Though it looks like the size 6 is a perfect fit I was unable to zip this past the waist. A size 8 would be the better size in this dress, and almost all Tory dresses I’ve tried. I love the pleating at the neckline to give the dress a little detail for an otherwise shift dress. It’s dresses like this one that make me wish I worked in an office daily, especially when it’s so comfortable in a silk crepe de chine.

  

I reviewed the Zandi Dress before in Dot {here}. I love this floral printed one better. The Small was definitely the better fit from the previous Medium I tried. This dress is definitely on my wishlist, waiting for a promo or sale price.

Another beautiful dress that makes me pine for office days. The crepe fabric is lovely and there is ruffle detail on either side of the v-neckline. I know the size 8 would be the best fit as the zipper, again, didn’t make it all the way up. The store usually has a small size like a 0 or 2 and then a size 6 put out in each item. All the other sizes are in the back. I could have asked for the right size but I knew I wouldn’t be buying it and didn’t want to waste anyone’s time to get the right size.

I had an idea this dress would be in the running to come home with me when I saw it. It’s in a beautiful silk jersey, just like my London Blouse. There is seaming in front near the sides to help establish more of a shape. The V-Neck is not too low. With the jersey material I knew it would have a little give and so the size Small was the best fit. I see this easily transitioning into Fall with a Blazer and Winter with a sweater belted over it, using it as a skirt.
