Le sigh: I always love Roland Mouret's tailored, architectural dresses. This light pink masterpiece is gorgeous, and I could see it working in any number of situations, from work to events and beyond. I particularly love the zig-zag seaming in the front and the wide boatneck. Gorgeous. It's (gulp) $1,440 at Neiman Marcus. Boat-Neck 3/4-Sleeve Sheath Dress
Looking for more affordable options? This $188 Hall of Famer sheath dress also comes in a light pink, and this $138 dress is also really nice. In plus sizes, this pink sheath dress comes up to size 24W (and has a blazer to match).

Has anyone purchased clothing from Chadwick’s recently (or ever)? I was Googling to find another less expensive dress along the lines of the featured one, and I found this style there (obviously a somewhat different color and cut but close enough for me). I have no experience with Chadwick’s (other than vaguely recalling that my grandma used to get their catalogues) and I’m afraid this dress would be a case of “you get what you pay for,” and not in a good way.
If anyone is looking for online shopping for stylish clothes, then I cannot say enough about how much FUN it is to shop with apparel website ObeyClothing.com. They have a marvelous sense of style and a great eye for color, texture and patterns.
