Great dress! I quite like religion clothing but I always wait for a sale!

I love the shape of the bodice.

I love that dress. As a younger person with alt/goff tendancies I would have coveted it so badly but not had the money. Now I have the money but I don't think it would have the same effect I would be looking for on my matronly 53 yr old frame

I wanted to wait for a sale but it was selling out rapidly so caved and bought it.

I love it too, Ella, when on, the whole thing looks like something from a grunge version of a classical ballet

Lovely dress, the shape is gorgeous. The pale grey version would make an amazing wedding dress

I love that dress!

Odd you should say that ... I'm not getting married (getting civil partnered) but it's on the list of possibilities!

I would have sold organs to get it when I was younger. I'm suspect I'm too old for it now really and having a mid life crisis, but hey.

It’s a beautiful midlife crisis to be having though. And congrats!

Ooh! Congratulations! I am very interested in the other possibilities if you wanted to share! And everything else to be honest, I love an occasion (Do obviously ignore me if as usual I’m far too nosy )

Congrats Geek! I love the dress.

Oh thank you! Didn't mean to hijack, sorry.

I shall do a separate thread, Leap

Yes, please do! Congratulations!

Angus, did your dress arrive? The sizing seems... extremely generous. S said I look like a middle aged New Yorker in it and I don't I think he means that as a compliment They don't make sizes smaller than S but it's the nicest fabric and has pockets so I am really wanting to keep it.

I would take that as a compliment

I mean, I am middle-aged! And New Yorkers are cool!

Congratulations, geek. I love the dress.

I'd still take it as a compliment too :thickskinned:

Mine has arrived! The sizing is fine although that dress came in XS, S definitely would have been far too big. I love the style but I think it might be too see-through. I'm going to stand in the garden tomorrow and get my friends to assess.

I have just bought this second hand Zara dress on eBay. I’m belatedly embracing (all the) animal print.

I really like that, HC
