I was hesitant to buy the newly designed Brooklyn because I truly loved the old Brooklyn design and especially the fabric. But this color convinced me to give it a go. My first reaction was disappointment in the flimsier seeming thinner fabric and the fact that Wool& once again redesigned a dress to be shorter and trimmer-cut. That said, after I had worn it awhile I actually realized the cut of the dress is fine, maybe even better than the old design, just different and took some getting used to because I love my old ones so much. I still would greatly prefer this dress in the old fabric...it was so much softer and more luxurious. But all in all, I love dress and the Pacific color is my favorite of all Wool& colors so far.
