Help from the girls!

Help help help! Going to a friend's wedding in a few weeks, and desperately seeking a nice dress to wear - have been looking for the last month or so, but can't find anything at all that fits well and looks pretty... any suggestions of places to try for this sort of thing, as am fast running out of inspiration!

Go in your bday suit???, now that would be something to talk about

Sorry cant be of much help but at least you got a bump upwards

Monsoon do some nice dresses, as does Coast. What sort of price range are you looking at?

stig · 31 May 2006 at 16:41

my girl always goes to Monsoon or river island for these things
i on the other hand go to TK Maxx! :cool:

Edit: Beaten to it! :rolleyes:

My guess is 6 female responses, 72 male responses, and 2 "TTIUWP"s. Any takers?

oxist: You're not part of the bridal party or anything, right?

I will use the last one with a pretty picture:

oxist258 · 31 May 2006 at 16:48

Birthday suit would make the photos interesting

Nope, not part of bridal party... just one of the masses. Have tried River Island, but the shop in Oxford is pretty sparse... will look in Monsoon though. I love Coast, but I'm not tall enough!

Price-wise, I'm reasonably flexible - I figure that if it's something nice, then I'll be able to wear it for other things, so looking up to around £70-80 I guess.

Raist: already down on the TTIUWP... shocking!

Coast do beautiful dresses. I bought one (well my mum paid

) over the weekend. They're always well made and very pretty

Monsoon as already suggested have lovely ones too. Also try Karen Millen although they have £150 average on their dresses

whereas my dress was £85 and much nicer than ones I found in Karen Millen.

If you're near a selfridges that's always useful. Whistles do some fancy ones as well as the other designers that are under the one roof

Good luck x

Are we confident that the OP is female, and not a male looking for a dress? (no offence either way thread starter)
