Hi again all
I was wondering if someone could find a skirt like this but cheaper than £160? I'm a size 16/18. I would prefer it to be Free Size but that's probably asking too much
Thanks in advance

This is a two piece, but you could just use the skirt. £79. Ivory though.

It is worth looking for 2 piece dresses, you might find a cheap one. I'll keep looking. Can the corset be ordered in ivory, or do you have a preference for white anyway?“Listen to the mustn'ts, child. Listen to the don'ts. Listen to the shouldn'ts, the impossibles, the won'ts.

Is it worth sourcing the fabric yourself and having a seamstress put it together?0

That's quite a good idea. If local seamstresses are too expensive, you could maybe source from China?
This is a narrower skirt, but you could maybe add an underskirt? Although with a corset pulling you in on top, a slim skirt might not be a bad idea...could make for a good hourglass shape:

Gosh that really would be so quick for someone to make, probably 4 layers of Tulle and then 1 layer of lining, nice quality. A few seams and waistband with just the lining to hem.Nothing Changes if Nothing Changes0

Thanks so much for helping
I'm still on the look out for it but it's a good idea about getting a 2 piece rather than looking for just the skirt, I may be able to find it cheaper getting a 2 piece from China on ebay. I will also look into getting a seamstress to do it.
