[mosschops30]

For dd's first holy communion, I dont do frills, or lacey stuff and we thought this one was nice.

Very nice mosschops, simple yet pretty

[Fimbo]

It's lovely Mosschops. It's very pretty - my dd (nearly 8) would love to wear something like that.

[nailpolish]

mosschops that is gorgeous


you have nice taste

[mosschops30]

ah thanks, glad everyone approves, dont want all the family tutting at my choice of dress.

You dont think it's too bridesmaid-y then? Her veil has a cross on it if thats any compensation

[nailpolish]

nope not bridesmaidy at all

[plummymummy]

I always think communion dresses look bridish/bridesmaidish so not best person to give advice. It's very sophisticated though. Looks like a designer mini brides dress rather than a net curtain ensemble.

[mrsdarcy]

At our church girls are asked not to wear sleeveless dresses - maybe check that's not the case at yours?

[blueteddy]

Very pretty.

[hulababy]

The dress is beautiful.

[Gingerbear]

I was just about to say the same as mrsdarcy - your DD might need a bolero type short sleeved jacket to cover up bare arms.
It is a lovely dress though.

[moondog]

Lovely on anyone over 12.
Not sure about the bare top bit though.
Deffo needs a little jacket of some sort.

[mosschops30]

oh your worrying me now. All the dresses I saw were sleeveless apart from the frumpy, lacey frilly ones which i couldnt buy.

They are ok with sleeveless, as my friends dd took hers in Yr 3 and said they all had sleeveless dresses (because I did wonder too)

[Next]

Its lovely.

[MrsBadger]

very sophisticated!

not v experienced in first communion stuff myself so had assumed \link{http://www.bhs.co.uk/wedding/bhs_images/white/X012-P7-05.jpg\this} kind of thing was the norm...

[LipstickMum]

Oh, it's gorgeous.

[leander]

I think it is gorgous not over the top very simple.Only you will know whether your daughter can carry a sleeveless dress off and not look too old(IYKWIM)
I think she will look fantastic

[twinsetandpearls]

I was at my neices holy communion and qute a few had sleeveless dresses but they did tend to cover up a bit with a bolero jacket or a little cardigan.

[mosschops30]

hopefully she will be ok with that sheer wrap over the top. She is not a slutty 10 year old (like you see some of them) so I think she will just look very pretty, she has a little veil with a cross on and flat white shoes and white socks

[Beauregard]

simply gorgeous

[threelittlebabies]

very lovely!

[twinsetandpearls]

A sheer wrap would probably look lovely.
