Thanks Linda, unfortunately I haven't got a pic of the net and the dress is safely stowed at my friends house.
I don't know if this helps but about 2/3 of the way down there is a post with the same dress as mine, or very similar, with and without a jupon 163.

Ha, I replied in that thread. You need a 163 then.

Sorry I should know better, everytime someone mentions pettis I worry that it will look too 'flat' but dress looked okay on without

Just a quick note on petticoats - I bought mine (hoopless) on ebay for £26, which is much cheaper than I have seen anywhere else.
When it arrived I tried it on with the dress and it looked fabulous, however when I started to walk I realised that I sounded like a noisy plastic bag!
If buying cheap & cheerful online, do remember to check what fabric is being used :-)
Am now in process of taking the layers and attaching them to something more discreet.....

I guess the lining used wasn't a soft one.

Linda,
Would the 163 give the train bit the lift as in this pic? [URL="javascript: changeImage('7ec2404b-b333-400a-bbaa-c8777335718e.enlargedNormal.jpg',null);"][/URL]

If so, and if you were thinking of doing an order from Jupon, please could you let me know how much it is?
