If I ever become very, very rich...
I'd just order one of everything in every color from Kiyonna from now until eternity. First, check out what's coming up for May. The Manhattan dress makes me wish I had an office job just so I could wear it. Those items are all on pre-order so you'll have to wait a bit.
If you're itching for something new right this second, the Madison Avenue dress might be your new favorite. It has a beautifully sexy twisted keyhole detail that emphasizes the waist and bust but the overall cut is modest enough for any occasion. This is a seasonless dress, so you could wear it now with heels or in the fall or winter with tights and boots. This would be a good dress to have on hand because you could wear it just about anywhere. It's available in red or basic black for $132.
Oh I LOVE that Manhattan dress! I haven't bought anything from Kiyonna yet, mostly because I'm so afraid of getting the wrong size. I wear a misses size 16, or a Lane Bryant 14W (35.5" waist, 47" low hip)--- do you know what might be a good Kiyonna equivalent? Do their clothes fit true to the size charts on their website? Thanks!

girliegirl, I also wear a Misses 16, and I ordered a 1x from Kiyonna in a dress and a top. They fit pretty well, although a little on the loose side.

I think their clothes run very true to the size chart but I don't have any dresses yet.

Fabulous! Thanks for the feedback! I'll have to pick up that dress with my tax rebate check, and put the rest in my IRA, of course. Gotta live a little, right? ;)

I would say they run true to size as well, I have one of their dresses and it's spot on for sizing. Their tops? Not so much, so I think it depends.
