what make is the dress nak? DD absolutely loves it and would like to try and hunt one down for herself. I take it you got it off ebay?

Yes, it was ebay. Its a Cherlone. They do ballgowns at very good prices.

I used a shop called eveningwear4u on ebay and the dress is called Cherlone Satin Grey Prom Ball Gown Cocktail Party Evening Dress

But remember what I said it does look nicer and more expensive in the pic!

But on the plus side I think they go on average for about 45 quid if you don't get into a bidding war like me!:cool:

You really are lovely, aren't you? :mad:

Same old story on this forum, a few sensationalised anecdotes painting children or young people in a bad light appear in a tabloid and the usual vermin start crawling out of the wordwork with their spiteful comments.

You must be looking at a different photograph! They look about twice their age and totally inappropriate for 16 year olds.

What do you expect from someone called "shellsuit"!

Generalising all 17 year old girls as slappers, deserves being pulled up.

School proms. :mad:

Another stupid money-making custom we've imported from USA, like Trick or Treating.

I don't know about proms but trick or treating (guising) has been going on in Scotland since the 19th century. It's probably where the Yanks got it from.

Correct. But the English do trick or treating like the Americans: Happy Hallowe'en, now hand over the candy. When I was a child, guising involved actually doing something e.g telling a joke - and you were grateful for any sweeties you got.

It was DS2's prom last Friday.

Here he is.

The hire cost us £95 and we got to keep the shirt.
