First: color weirdness. Apparently, the orange-y color from Britt’s picks is not actually duck sauce. It’s ALL atomic red. That said, I have confirmation that lulu DID name an orangy color duck sauce. It exists somewhere, even if it hasn’t officially been seen yet.
BUT, I don’t think it was crazy of me to assume all of these colors wouldn’t fall under the “atomic red” umbrella. I mean, I realize that dyes take to each fabric a little differently, but WOAH.
Atomic red define jacket.
Atomic red swiftly racerback.
Atomic red studio racerback.
Lotus camo oil slick blue namaskar hoodie.
These are listed as the wee stripe heathered inkwell/black rolldown cotton wunder under pants, but they don’t look like it. Looks more like inkwell/white or something.
This heathered inkwell version of the mesh with me crops are new.
Race with grace 1/2 zip colors: wee stripe silver spoon and sanctity stripe silver spoon. There’s also solid atomic red and black.
Turn it up long sleeve made of silverescent seriously light luon. Meh–I’ve never really liked the way this fabric looked. Comes in black and grey.
Prism petal speed shorts–easy pass for me. The atomic red trim might make these a little tough to match since it’s such an odd color.
The take 2 bra (from Britt’s picks last week) is decent-looking from the front. That said, it’s reversible so it doesn’t have slots for cups. I think the idea is that the double layers will help with show-through, but I still like to have my trusty cups.
The stress less hoodie in light grey is also buried in the “tops” section–not in the “what’s new” for some reason, unless it was secretly uploaded sometime this week.
Interesting to see the comparisons side-by-side, thanks! It is kind of odd that there are such dramatic differences. The atomic red SS swiftly reminds me of the boom juice version. Regardless, it is nice to see some colors coming out. Any word on the Boxing Day upload time? I wasn’t as into lulu this time last year – is it just more of what we’ve been seeing on WMTM or do they mark down a lot of newer items? Happy holidays!
It’s looking like both for Boxing Day — some stuff in store, some coming in special for boxing day. A lot of men’s, which is nice for guys for once. Way better than Black Friday imo
Definitely better then Black Friday, which I suppose isn’t that surprising since they’re a Canadian company, and Boxing Day is big there.
It should be better than the usual WMTM. Nobody knows what time, unfortunately. My plan is basically to start checking once upload happens, then periodically late tonight and then first thing in the morning. Australia already got their Boxing Day WMTM (it’s already the 26th there), and it happened in the wee hours of the morning for them. Not sure if that’s a clue or not.
Meh. Atomic red (at least in the define and swiftly) look like Love Red, which is not my fave. But I’m sure a lot of people are excited. I’d prefer a truer red. Flaming Tomato was totally underplayed.
FT was definitely underplayed considering they’re blowing up atomic red. Orangey reds are a dime a dozen in the lulu-verse. At least they did deepest cranberry I guess, which was basically a true red although not bright.
The only duck sauce I have seen is on a men’s long sleeve metal vent tech. It was gray, and the stitching across the shoulders was orangey. At least at the MOA store !
Yeah, the stitching must’ve been the “duck sauce”. It might end up being only a men’s color, who knows.
PS: our store DID get the inkwell/black cotton roll down wup’s, but they are definitely inkwell and black, not the white/gray ones pictured. Wrong picture is my guess. The others are a dark navy. Hm
Yeah, the pic I saw is way different. Like, no way it’s just bad lighting, it’s definitely not the same thing. Beats me.
