Universal Standard and Rodarte have just launched a capsule collection with some very pretty items, like this dress, and if their look is at all up your alley, I urge you to check it out post-haste, as it will surely sell out fast.

Too ruffly for me! I prefer Jason Wu’s collection for Eloquii. (My fave: the yellow midi dress.)
Wow, these look amazing. Does anyone have experience of their sizing? I seem to fall in between two of their sizes…
I fit pretty squarely into a 20 on their usual size chart measurements, and I’ve got several pieces in a Medium (18-20) that all fit me well and true to size. The only thing I wish I’d sized down in is their jeans because they have a lot of stretch. Looking at the specific product size guide (linked next to “Fit”) on that dress, I’d be between a M and L and I’d probably size up to an L based on their garment measurements. For the blouse I’ve got my eye on, it looks like my usual M would fit fine though.
I was at the showing yesterday and while I think that the ruffly dresses are pretty, the fabric choices didn’t do it for me….the fabrics in the collection seem inferior to the regular Universal Standard offerings. The models all looked really great, but I much prefer the higher quality house line.
