Find my dress/shoes etc thread!

I think you've picked a character that is not very popular to dress up as, so although it makes it more original an outfit it also makes it difficult to find.

Maybe you could use her as inspriation and wear something similar? Or if you know anyone who's good with a sewing machine you could get them to make you one?

I'll keep my eye out for you.

Any clue to the styles name? I found a Madrid which looked promising?

Hi frannyann, thank you very much for taking the time to look for me :A it is very very similar to that except the front of that is at the back iykwim? And the corset style stops half way at my stomach rather than going down the hips. The front of the skirt is very plain, it's really hard to find as the backs of the dresses are rarely shown, although the back of this particular dress is so 'wow' that I would of thought they would advertise it like that.

I haven't got a clue what the name is, would there be any clues in the dress do you think? It's so frustrating

Thank you emsbet. I totally understand and agree with what you are saying but i wanted someone different and someone who noone would think of. Most of the girls are going as the obvious - pink ladies/frenchie and sandy so even tho its my hen weekend i dont get to go as who i want and then everyone choose after me but its too late as most have got their outfits now

What about going as Danny Zuko?
You could sexy it up with fitted leather(ette?) T-Birds jacket, skinny black jeans, white vest, and do a sexy quiff (eg http://www.handbag.com/cm/handbaguk/images/nR/or_0e561bf6125318392218745.jpg )

Maybe you could go with a 50s style costume so you still fit in the theme but stand out?
Maybe something like these?

There doesn't seem to be any link to style and name, as you say back views are not easy to find, do you know if its a current collection, as that narrows down the search!

Hi Franny

I hope you can help as I am going completely mad! My wedding is the day after the royal one and I thought it would be fun to get a few custom made souvenir tea towels for the mums and BMs in the style of the Royal ones but with me and H2B. After searching the net for ages I found a place that does not have a minimum quantity for order and I think they would cost around £7 each. you could upload your own design and format it all online (a bit like vistprint). computer crashed and had to be tinkered with and now I cannot find the site again!!

Any ideas???

Wedding Tea Towels are doing a royal wedding themed one, says prices start at 2.75, wouldnt hurt to e-mail and ask?
