………………….When OMBRE prints truly work…..they are mesmerizing…….you simply can not stop looking at them…..That is how I feel about this ombre print…in all three colors…….MAGENTA….. A263354….is the third combination being offered in this dress. At the top…..it starts with the deepest Blackberry and Dark Plum, and then works its’ way down to all shades of magenta and Pink…..with an area of tinted white just to enhance all of the colors……..Please notice how the ombre flows seamlessly from the top down to the bottom…..even though there is a raised waist seam…….the progression of color is SEAMLESS…. This does not happen by CHANCE….This is all preplanned before the dress pattern is finalized. This is truly DESIGNER WORKMANSHIP, and a detail that many would take for granted and would go unnoticed. However, these are the kinds of details that either make a design successful….or not…….Worn over the shoulders is a new WK ENR BOLERO in IVORY, which is the perfect little cover up over everything….it will be avail in BLACK too, but you must be patient as it will be avail a little later in the season. It is just the right proportion over long skirts, dresses and maxis. It does not cover too much therefore it elongates the body. Sometimes long sweaters can cut long dresses in half and give a shortened appearance….Long over long only works, IMHO, if you are very tall….A full sneak peek of the Bolero will be coming………This dress really doesn’t need any accessories other than an earring and maybe a bangle or two….the print is STATEMENT enough…..However, if you are in the mood for a little trinket…..the PINK DEW DROP NECKLACE & EARRING are perfect. It adds just a little something special without detracting from the dress at all………….I am very happy….more than happy with the way this dress turned out…..I hope you are too…………………………… …………………………………………………..enjoy…………………………………much Love……………………..Louis
These dresses are great Louis! The big decision will be which colors to order! I know they will get lots of wear this summer. Thank you.
Louis, does this color combo work with your fucshia or more with your raspberry? I have the posh knit cardi in raspberry and the faux linen kimono jacket in fucshia that I could use for a/c protection. I would love to eat something that was this combination of colors. I think your ladies are going to look quite tasty in this dress.

Dear Carol….I tried the posh knit cardi and the color is off. I suppose in a pinch you could wear it, but it’s not wonderful. I no longer have the fuchsia kimono sample so I can say that it does work, but chances are it will be better than the cardigan. What does work is the WK shawl in the raspberry color
Dear Chris….I no longer have those lace garments so I really can’t answer you.
Remember the magenta lace open cardigan (A229467) that came in olive as well and I think another color (silvery/black?)– do both the ‘magenta’s match to this dress? Also is this a Regular length or will there also be a Petite length? One more question: Are these letter or numerical sizing? Item number please?
Enjoy the weekend,
Chris
Two of my questions I see are answered– Regular length and numerical sizing. Looks like I need more coffee too this AM! 😉
