  I love the waist line on the recent Sylvie Fit & FLare dress. This is fabulous- but the scoop neck is super scooped for some of us. Is it possible to make a dress with a similar fit and flare style waist, maybe a higher v neckline, (the V-neck shown below is really nice), looser sleeves, and in a heavier fabric than the signature blend? Yes to pockets. It doesn't have to be as long as the dress shown below, and the bodice doesn't have to be as loose fitting, this dress just showed a great neckline (to me) and looser sleeves with a gathered waist. This might even be nice in a tencel blend.
  
  Thanks for considering.

  Sylvie is the best dress! I love the iris blue, but more colors! Hopefully not all at the same time though: any of the teals, purple fig, marionberry, thyme, Pacific, odyssey gray, marine blue etc. I am going to get at least one Sylvie every year, for as long as it is made (as long as the colors make sense) because this is my dress!
  
  Breton stripes could be lovely too (the dress that my first one is replacing has stripes but has served it's life well).

  I would love Sylvie in cool colors such as country blue, dusty pink (not mauve), spruce, washed/navy, a grey that matches or coordinates with the charcoal heather landmark.

  Love the bodice of the Sylvie and Love the twirly skirt, but the neckline is too low cut for me! Would love to see a higher option.

  She is my dress too! Elbow sleeves and 2X (opposed to XX). I’ve been waiting for a style like Sylvie for so long.

  The Iris blue is amazing! Pacific, purple fig, Aegean teal, and end-on-end colors would be awesome too.

  I love the current Sylvie, but would welcome another style with a higher neckline for variety.

  I love Sylive, but the neckline doesn't work for me, as a full-busted woman in a professional setting. Would love a higher neckline (preference would be for a crew), but would be excited for anything with more coverage.

  I love the Sylvie! All I would change is the depth of the scoop neck.

  WARM, Autumn tones, please! I would love to see anything from the deep autumn palette in the silvie dress (and all the others!). Especially some deep rich autumn browns for neutral options, and other rich deep neutral autumn tones. Some warm teals and true (warm) deep olive greens, too please!

  I love the current sylvie, but would prefer 3/4 sleeves

  Absolutley second this. I returned her with a heavy heart: she was perfect for me but the colour washed me out a bit. I'd snap a pacific one so fast.

  I would love to see a return of dusty blue. I think it would be so beautiful in this style.

  Love the Sylvie, but needs a higher neckline, like chloe or Fiona.

  If the Sylvie had a higher neckline, it would be my go-to daily dress. Please raise the neckline and keep everything else the same!

  Love the Sylvie idea. The current neckline is indecently low on me as a small busted, petite size. I’d also appreciate a higher waistline, but can modify that myself if necessary.

  I returned the one I ordered. I'm petite and the neckline fell halfway down my breasts.

  I am considering buying my first wool& dress, and Sylvie seems like the perfect style, but I would want it in an autumn pallette color that still works with black leggings, perhaps ochre, spruce green, or thyme.

  I love this dress, but the scoop neck is too low. I got this as a modest dress for travel but that scoop line wrecked that idea.
  
  I'm also having trouble finding a bra that pairs with it without peeking out into the scoop line.
  
  I would love to see this with a higher scoop. Raise the scoop!

  Thyme (or other green), Rosewood and Wisteria! Sylvie is my absolute favorite dress! Please make her in green 💚! In the Facebook group Katie dyed her light blue Sylvie a stunning Moss green!

  Please raise the neckline! I'm a 63-yr old minister and the neckline is a no-go for me. I kept the dress, thinking that if I could find the right thing to put under it, all would be well. Not so. It's been 2 years. Now I have a very expensive nightgown because the dress just doesn't work on me. I requested a scrap of fabric to try to take it to a tailor - but that didn't fly. Perhaps I'll end up selling or trading it. Too bad. I really love the longer length.

  Goodness, what colors wouldn't I want. I have all of the colors made so far.
  
  I would like muted, mid tone, cool colors (not green). Teal, purple fig, rosewood, aurora blue, ...
  
  Also, I think this dress would be great for a petite option. I don't need that, but it would anwer many of the criticisms of the dress.

  I have Sylvie in the light blue and the coral red. I love them both. I'd adore something in purple or maybe a yellow. Maybe a stripe! I know I'm in the minority, but I think the neckline is absolutely perfect as is.
