    Fly away with these beautiful feathers

    Love the print, however the cream really looks yellow to me, which isn't a preferred colour.

    I like that the button placket is covered. And pockets! I see myself wearing mainly as a dress, then jacket; not anticipating the skirt style.

    This is my first Zuri, and I hope to eventually purchase more. Body-wise perhaps a little more generous than expected, but the shoulders are perfect so wouldn't size down.

    For reference, 5'6", generally a M top and L bottom; M Zuri.

    The tote bag is a nice addition.

    I see streaks of lightning!

    I definitely underestimated the power of this print when I viewed it online vs when I tried it on. It’s a gorgeous red with hints of pink against the white and black contrast. I know it’s supposed to be feathers but the overall effect reminds me of lightning bolts.

    Red is definitely my color, but this print really brightens up my complexion and has a very regal vibe. I feel empowered wearing Nom de Plume!
