Tried a red, long-sleeved version of this dress on at Anthropologie that’s been out for a while. It was awesome. Saw this on Modcloth (it’s new to the site today) and contemplating getting one or the other. Same dress? Half the price. What up with that? I’m guessing the Modcloth version is a lighter weight fabric (you can see the light through the dress at the bottom of the Modcloth dress and the fabric is not clinging to the form as the Anthro one does).
Anthropologie – $178 – 48 inches long
Modcloth – $79.99 – 41.5-43 inches long depending on size
When it comes to clothes I usually choose price point over quality, unless it is a piece like a coat or a good pair of pants that will get a lot of wear and tear.
The Modcloth one might have a length that hits at a weird spot… I think the length on the Antrho one looks like it would be more flattering.
