I'm having a sulk as I've been trying on dresses & none of them look the way they should.
@Carole The husband dragged me into Fashion Factory in Cannock despite me telling him that there would be nothing for me there. (It turns out that it was really a ploy to take me into his nearby workplace & introduce me to a load of people he works with).
So I was twice or maybe three times as cross as -
1, Made to try on dresses somewhere I knew wouldn't have anything I like.
2, Dresses made me look like my Nan.
3, Made to meet people when I had originaly only dressed for traipsing round Penkridge market & had put no make up on & hadn't done anything to my hair!
4, Then dragged into TK Maxx (I hate TK Maxx) despite me stating I wanted to go to Debenhams, House of Fraser or Lewis's
Ignore me moaning, I must be having some kind of midlife crisis!
Very trueI think the whole sizing thing is ridiculous!
Everyone is so different, how they can make clothes 'one shape fits all' is silly!
So bear in mind if you find a style/ colour you like and it's not perfect you could always get it altered?
I always recommend the Sewing Box on Weston Road but I do believe we have our very own forum seamstresses @magda_xxx
Always worth a thought!
I think I'm too old to join the Navy @John MarwoodNavy

She's already set the date!Nafea Faa Ipoipo ?
She's already set the date!
Keep the 21st free......Was it September the something? I should know, I really should
She defiantly is! Bride-to-be has ordered it, I think she wanted everything from the same place - as hers & the bridesmaids are all from the same place, but all may not be lost.....Poor thing, she's sounds way to young for adult shaped clothes and may feel too old for flower girl come the summer.
Does it have to be from that shop, i.e. Does she have to match. It may be better & cheaper option to have something made rather than altered.
These are exactly what we were looking at in the bridal shop, only they had another 1in front of the price, the bridesmaid dress is almost double that & then the alterations added on top!Have you looked at BHS?
Their flower girl dresses go up to age 16 and they have a lovely choice, very reasonable and no alterations needed.
