    I am 87 and I love a lot of your clothes but I have to say older women look terrible in dresses above the knee. Also, do you ever do pastels. I have an old dress of yours I love which I can wear all year in Florida because it looks light with a white background and in pretty blues and yellows and reds. I am so sick of wearing blacks even tho I just bought two of your dresses for dress. I need light cotton summer dresses below the knee. I live in Florida

    1. Dear Barara, thank you for your message. We appreciate your feedback very much.
      We offer many long dresses. Check under the “dress” category.
      Our Crinkle group is perfect for the Florida weather, all year round. Light weight and some fun colors.
      We love pastels too, and I am sure we will see them back in one of our future groups.
      Best,
      Yael Edelist
