Trying to find a specific item for a friend

My friend is desparately searching for the jacket to match a dress she bought in Phase Eight some time ago. She is kicking herself that she only bought the dress and not the matching jacket.
It doesn't seem to be currently listed on Ebay in her size, but she is not sure if she is using all the search terms that would bring it up.
Are there any "wanted" forums where she could ask if anyone has this jacket languishing in their wardobes?
Ths is the jacket which is on Ebay but in an 8, my friend needs 14/16 or larger as she would be prepared to have it altered. Sorry not sure how to do a link.

set up searches for 'phase eight jacket' 'phase eight lattice' and 'phase eight black' with email alerts. Then you/she only has to check each day for the newly listed items, which won't be that many.
Also are there any style numbers or names on the dress that would help set up a more specific search.A kind word lasts a minute, a skelped erse is sair for a day.0 -

sometimes sellers don't put the name of the designer/shop in the title or even in the categories. so may be an idea to type in phase eight jacket and tick the search description box too (under the search button).
I've often found items that haven't been described properly by using the search description option.
you'll probably get a lot of items come up but then the number of listings showing can be reduced by ticking new with tags, size etc0
