Mass dress flash anyone?

Browny, 27 July, 2010 at 11:26

Posted on Planning 197

So I have noticed quite a few people have found their dresses over the last couple of weeks (myself included!) so thought it might be nice to have a mass flash so everyone can flash their dresses! Here's mine (excuse my expression!) *PIC REMOVED* sorry I've decided to delete my pics of my dress...

*PIC REMOVED* sorry I've decided to delete my pics of my dress *just incase* OH sees it. Better safe than sorry!

    Sorry i just realised you wrote this. Thank you, i'm glad you like it Smiley laugh The dress has a fabulous corset at the back which makes me look rather skinny if i may say so myself ? I think thats what sold it for me, how vain!!

    Mrsgreatbatcht2b -I hope you dont mind me asking, one of the dresses you've picked (i think its ronald joyce - lola?) have you tried it on yet? I tried it on and its beautiful but huuuuge, when i sat down i took up 4 seats ?

    @samisheen I still love yours so much it makes me have (yet another) dress wobbles...

    Here's mine then, not altered yet (hence the dress wobbles hopefully!). Too long, too baggy, just not right yet ☹️

    OOOOH! That's maggie Sottero's "Brianna", isn't it? Second on my "To try" list as back up because the dress I want is by Ronald Joyce from the 2009 Collection and my shop keeps threatening that designers tend to discontinue dresses from older collections and that if I want it i will have to order it soon!!!

    Hi, little Fluff - did you manage to get it then? Where from, if you don't mind me asking, as it's on my back-up list "To try" in case the "Chelsea" is no longer available..

    Seeing as I keep commenting on other people's dresses and not yet flashed mine here (although I think I did in an old thread), here are my top choices - the first is the one I am hoping to have: Ronald Joyce's "Chelsea" from their 2009 Collection. But the way things are financially at the moment I may not be able to afford it - the lady in the shop told me it was £900 plus any alterations (which I will need as it was way too long - I'm 5'1") and also they keep saying designers often discontinue dresses from older collections.



    RONALD JOYCE - Chelsea

    Then would be Brianna (Maggie Sottero) and Love (Ronald Joyce again - see Little fluff's dress here) and below one from Ana Cristache, a fellow Romanian, with an exclusive shop in london - I bet I won't be able to afford THAT one but I like it nonetheless as even when slim, I have quite big upper arms!

    OK so I don't flash my dress as I know it's no where near as amasing as all yours but will flash anyway please ignore my porky belly and I am going to have the neckline changed to a sweetheart as it just cuts me off and I don't think gives me much shape sooo nervous lol (please try and be kind lol)

    I don't think it helps that I look lob sided either god help me on the day lol

    Lizzyleek your dress is gorgeous! I agree that it needs a different neckline but the detailing is simply beautiful!

    You are giving me wobbles because mine is sooo plain!

    Hi lusmummy, no I haven't tried it on yet. Have to find somewhere which stocks it, but i'll bear that in mind, no fun if I can't hug my Hubby without squashing my dress.

    Whoops, posted too soon. Ok so I'm trying to mimic this one by Charlotte Balbier. That pattern will give me the basic shape then I just need to add some tulle or organza sleeves:

    Interestingly, out of 11 pages of dresses I seem to be the only girl who wants a big-skirted, off-the-shoulder ball gown type dress, lol- Im worried, does that make me a chav and I didn't even know it, or something?! I have always wanted something like this:

    Bex i like the off the shoulder look very much, its very period/fairytale.. I wanted to do that with my collar frock but I kept forgetting to try and pull the shoulders down....

    nothing wrong with the design you've chosen at all.
