Cora Shift Dress

Q perfect fall color, and cut!

Cora—Old, New, Fit, and Colors

I love my OG Cora, so it’s a hard pick, but I probably love new Cora even more! I absolutely love the added length! The extra inches at the bottom make new Cora look more polished in my view, so she is perfect anywhere, but especially for work and into the evening. I also find the longer length very flattering. I am a pear and wear XL or L these days, depending on the style. New Cora has some ease but still has a fairly straight cut, and I found the L too snug around my middle. The plum color is divine in my view, saturated and rich. I originally ordered the print too and loved it but sadly returned it. To know—the print fabric is white on the underside, and when I tried it on the white flashed along the bottom at the vents as I walked. This may not bother everyone, but I didn’t love that. The bigger thing—I found the print too sheer for me. It probably wouldn’t be a problem if the dress flowed more around my middle, but as it was I could see right through to my underwear, which was a dealbreaker for me. At first I was afraid to exchange the print for ultramarine, because I thought the blue was too bright for my taste. But I decided to stretch some, and it is bright but now I love it and feel great wearing either color! Thanks Wool&—I plan to wear the plum during a presentation this week, and I’m sure I’ll love wearing these dresses for years to come!
