Susan reviews the Igigi O’Hara dress

I am proud to say that I now have four Igigi dresses hanging in my closet, all timeless, all as fashionably fresh as the day I received them. My latest addition, thanks to Yuliya Raquel and Wendy Weetabix is the O’Hara dress in purple. The thing that amazes me about the Igigi dresses is the fact that they can be squished into the tiniest of bags,  left there for days then pulled out and looks as wrinkle-free as if they had just returned from the dry cleaner. They are absolutely the thing to pack if you are traveling, need fashionable, comfortable clothes but have limited baggage space. The feel of the fabric is amazing… cool and soft and clingy in all the right places.

The O’Hara has ruching and buttons down the left side which hug my waist and hips to give a lovely curve to my otherwise straight up and down shape. At first, I didn’t like the buttons at all. They are large and tend to make a little rattle when I walk. After many compliments from the Weetacon crowd, though, I changed my mind. I like the way the neck line gives a wrap dress look and covers up my chest so I can wear this dress to work. I think it will cross all seasons well…with some knee boots in the winter and strappy sandals in the summer. The long sleeves give some nice coverage for air conditioned offices, too. I can’t forget the office to night out option, either. If I add some sparkly jewelry and a little eye-liner I’ll be ready for a fabulous date.

I did discover something a little odd about the fit of the dress. No matter which way I tug and shift, the dress rides up a little in the back. I can’t figure if it’s the fit around my shoulders or just the way it’s cut or maybe it’s my rear-end. It’s not hugely noticeable just slightly uncomfortable. Whatever, it won’t stop me from wearing this gem at least once a week. Igigi love is a wonderful thing.
