Silk Layered Dress
Product details
Web ID: 8393105Misleading Advertising
I purchased this dress with the impression that it was a dress, not just an organza top layer. And I received much to my surprise, just this thin see through layer; I can't imagine how or why Eileen Fisher would call this layer a dress. Certainly, after reading the full description I realized that this is only top layer, so purchased the actual dress after receiving this. A waste of time, shipping and unnecessary frustration could've all bee alleviated with a better description of this dress.

Why is the dress missing?
The organza dress seemed so lovely online. When I opened the box all that was there was an outer layer of organza with nothing underneath. It is on its journey back.

Still Trying to Figure Out How to Wear It
I love silk organza. I have a couple of similar EF pieces which I bought years and years ago and which came with solid slips. Those pieces were longer, and perhaps better made. That being said, I really wanted this piece and on sale-even without a slip-I thought it was a fair price. I'm still trying to figure out how to style it, but overall I'm glad I bought it.

Wrinkles Like Crazy
The silk fabric of this overlay dress is extremely stiff. The dress looks good as long as you don’t sit down, at which time the fabric creases immediately. The wrinkles will drop out if you mist it with a spray of water, but of course, the wrinkles will appear as soon as the fabric dries and you sit down again! The price at full retail is truly outrageous for this piece and I would have returned it had I known how prone it is to wrinkling.

A disappointment.
After studying EF online photos I felt certain I knew how to style this layering dress. I had visions of it uplifting many pieces in my collection of decades of EF clothing. Alas, as my father used to say, this is a case of close but no cigar. The fabric is beautiful. I just love the color and shimmer. Nothing, however, will make up for the fact that the design is about what you'd get if you cut holes for the neck and two arms into a burlap bag. There is nothing attractive about it and it does not uplift the other pieces that will most clearly be seen beneath it.

Light and airy
Nice silk but thin. I knew it would be though, and I'm ok with that. This looks great over a pair of EF silk pants since both are light and airy. I have an EF cami which is a necessity under this tunic. The fit is a bit awkward. Not sure about the neckline since it comes up a bit high. I'll deal with it though

Beware, only the sheer piece
Same as other reviewer, I was shocked and felt tricked when I received this piece - it is NOT a dress - its just the sheer overlay and does not include the dress underneath. In order to get both pieces one would have to spend 500 dollars... ???
