    If you want, you can collect the dress and call in on me en route. Anything you need to discuss, we can do there and then. Just a suggestion. xx

    I love the button back as it is!!

    I've been thinking about this too. Many dresses are designed with specific back fastenings in mind. In particular, what the designer thinks will suit the dress. Obviously, JA is certainly "up there" with the Ian Stewart, Linea Raffaelli etc. But of course, it's down to personal taste and your requirements. The old saying "don't fix what aint broken" springs to mind. Change the back if it is what you want, but don't be lead because everyone else has the corset back. Hope you get my drift. :beer:
