Hi all :hello:
My aunt in the US has asked us to bring over some full slips/ chemise for her little girl; we have checked out M&S and John Lewis to no avail
I used have one when I was younger (about 20 year ago - god I sound ancient) does anyone know where we might be able to buy one? we are in south east London and can get to London / surrounding areas do any shops still sell them?
thanks :T

You usually find the smaller independent shops have them, also try Peacocks, Bon Marche as they may have them in small (size 6 and size 4) adult sizes. My auntie who's only 4'10 (size 4) gets hers from Peacocks.CC2 = £8687.86 ([STRIKE]£10000[/STRIKE] )CC1 = £0 ([STRIKE]£9983[/STRIKE] ); Reusing shopping bags savings =£5.80 vs spent £1.05.Wine is like opera. You can enjoy it even if you don't understand it and too much can give you a headache the next day J0

Your best bet would be Peacocks or Bon Marche then in the smallest size possible and shorten it. I used to live in Hounslow and I know a lot of the small independent shops had child sizes then (9 years ago). Not sure where you are in London but maybe worth also visiting some of the markets too as they sometimes had them.CC2 = £8687.86 ([STRIKE]£10000[/STRIKE] )CC1 = £0 ([STRIKE]£9983[/STRIKE] ); Reusing shopping bags savings =£5.80 vs spent £1.05.Wine is like opera.

I sound (and am) even more ancient than you, but clothes still look better with an underslip/petticoat/underskirt, whatever you like to call them. For a girl who hasn't yet got boobs, these are very simple to make. Measure from under arms to desired skirt length, stitch sides, top and bottom and add straps of baby ribbon. Easy-peasy.
It would be very easy to make one for a 3-year old. It's basically a tube with ribbon for straps.[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]Æ[/FONT]r ic wisdom funde, [FONT=Times New Roman, serif]æ[/FONT]r wear[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]ð[/FONT] ic eald.
