    You should be a personal shopper - that hollywoody number is 100% (no, 1000%!!!) what I mean.... what a damn shame it's a size 10 and I'm not!! Gutted!!!

    Someone will get themselves an absolute stunner of a dress with that bargain...
  • and just to add, I have shopped around with localish sellers today and managed to get an offer for the same dress with £160 off.... so I persevere... can't believe some people would just settle for the first price offered without even looking around?

    JUST what I am looking for, yeah, but a size 16 needed and preferably a corset back, and yes, I'd have found it! (or rather you would have!)

    Aimex - if you look at the first page of this thread, littlemadam posted a link to a corset she had brought which looks good and she says is very high quality... I am considering getting myself one even if I don't need it for my dress.... as I'm hoping to end up with a Maggie Sottero dress (somehow!) which has inbuilt corsetry which gives you an incredible figure. She was a corset designer before she made wedding dresses, hence why she designs hers like that. They are the equivalent of wearing a corset under the dress, but actually getting away with wearing nothing underneath!

    Nearest I can find is this:

    I would consider asking Linda on here, what she thinks it would cost to have one made, similar to the one I posted. As I think she could probably could do it for a decent price.
