    Has anyone used/seen/liked the convertible dresses that are being sold through etsy or at Nordstrom?  They seem to be very versatile and can be configured into dozens of looks.  They are made of a jersey material and actually are sold in the eggplant purple I want...but I'm wary of them.  First of all, they are all 'one size fits all'.  Really?  And if you've used them, worn them, or been to a wedding for which they are worn, do they look cheap? Nice?

    I haven't seen the ones from etsy, but if the Nordstroms one you're talking about is Two Birds then yes. They are fabulous and look really nice.

    I also wonder a lot about these. Because they are jersey and sort of drapey do they only look good on women who are very thin? Are they fancy enough for weddings? Are they hard to convert to the different styles?

    I think they are great!  The girls can choose what style suits them best!  You can even add a brooch (like below) to dress them up a bit, if you wanted.

    Interesting! Jersey isn't a fabric I was interested in but I might need to head out to Nordstrom tomorrow.
