Chris in VA Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 Need something tasteful, not loud, not sleeveless. Can be long or at least cover the knee. No v necks unless no cleavage shows. Ready? Go shopping! lol (Thanks for helping. I've already checked Macy's, JCPenneys and Garnet Hill.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lavender's green Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 eshakti.com lets you change things like length, sleeves, and necklines, and you can give them custom measurements. If the prices look high, they often have great deals for new customers or through email. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carol in Cal. Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 Vickki Vi FTW! This is the style I wear. I'm short so this hits me below the knee. Usually I wear a jacket over it but it works with a long scarf, too. I know you said not sleeveless, but this has become such a fave of mine that I thought I would post it anyway. The material is heavy enough to drape and skim very well, but not hot to wear. And it's crumple proof and washable! I wear mine just about every day--I have two black and one navy one now. The oldest one still looks brand new, and I've probably washed it a hundred times. It's amazing. I did buy a black unconstructed jacket to match, but honestly I don't use that as much. https://shop.nordstrom.com/s/vikki-vi-sleeveless-shift-dress-plus-size/4044196?origin=category-personalizedsort&breadcrumb=Home%2FBrands%2FVikki Vi&color=black And here is another style that sounds more like what you want: https://shop.nordstrom.com/s/vikki-vi-three-quarter-sleeve-stretch-knit-a-line-dress-plus-size/4044188?origin=category-personalizedsort&breadcrumb=Home%2FBrands%2FVikki Vi&color=black T shirt version: https://shop.nordstrom.com/s/vikki-vi-t-shirt-dress-plus-size/4755830?origin=category-personalizedsort&breadcrumb=Home%2FBrands%2FVikki Vi&color=black Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris in VA Posted June 21, 2018 Author Share Posted June 21, 2018 Thanks so much! I need some modest, very slightly dressier dresses for church and events, so the Vicki Vi might work, but they are a bit more than I want to spend. I also need some things I can wear to places where I need to cover more--no cleavage, longer sleeves, longer lengths, because these are religious sites. I have scarves but they are too hot and I don't look good with lots of extra fabric. I also need to hike in some of these. I know, right? Hike as in, "lots of walking, some urban, some not, all in the same day, for many, many days." Tall order! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
