Oooo: we're loving this dress by Laundry by Shelli Segal, available in inkblot blue (sadly only available for the tiny girls) and in melon red (available up to size 6). Clean lines, solid patterns, a bit of interesting pleating, and a nice belt… lovely. It's on sale for $129 (was $215) at Dillard's. Laundry by Shelli Segal Belted Jersey Dress

Great inspiration piece! I love that belt.
I think size 6 is also “tiny girls”
Any idea how these run for sizing? I couldn’t find a sizing chart on-line. I just called Dillard’s and they could only tell me information from a “general” sizing chart, which gave a size “3” with these measurements: 32″ bust, 24″ waist, and 34″ hips. And note, that’s not the measurements for a size “0” or “2,” which are presumably smaller than a “3.” Are they sizing for children?! That’s tiny! I’m inclined not to believe it. Thoughts?
I love it. Laundry is a pretty good brand for the pear-shaped ladies, although it seems like the stores in my area stopped carrying it years ago.
Sillyputty- you’re definitely a 0. I wore a 0 in Laundry clothes when I was a little bigger than you in the waist/hips and had the same size top.
Nordstrom has a dress size chart for Laundry:

meh…its ok.
FYI, ruelala.com is having a Laundry sale today. It’s one of those sites that requires a (free) membership, but the sales are usually pretty good.
I second jcb’s shout out for RueLaLa. If it doesn’t fit, return for merch credit at any of the featured boutiques and no return shipping charge. I also like the non-clothing boutiques (jewelry, watches, glassware, home decor, etc.) I got some great Clark’s/Privo shoes at lower prices than I’d seen them at DSW. I also subscribe to Beyondthe Rack but haven’t bought anything there yet. Seems to be a bit lower end and younger trends than RueLaLa.
Dress looks awfully short. I wish Dillard’s gave lengths like Nordies does.
I just tried this on at Bloomingdale’s today and it fit wonderfully! It was adorable on and on sale too, I think it was half off of $179 and they had it in a few sizes. It wasn’t short at all, quite appropriate for the workplace. I am now regretting not buying it, but I was a few hundred $ into my shopping spree so I cut myself off before I bought the dress.
