I know, it's a bloody tutu!
But i absolutely love it and it's an old Google image and it's not on sale anywhere that I know of, I'd be very grateful if you spared your laughter and could just point me in the right direction :)

Both very good offering Thankyou! Especially thanks for not pissing yourselves laughing (at least, not on here!!).
Thornrose, I'm going to Goodwood in a few weeks and I started a thread on here as a desperate plea for help as I'm more gym wear or jeans and boots, not much Inbetween.
No one suggested a tutu but ive fancied one of these skirts for a while and i love the look and struggled to find similar.
Honest opinion? I asked a friend and she liked it but said she wasn't sure she'd have the balls to wear it (fellow jeans wearer) and Dp likes it too.
So it's a thumbs up from me, friend and Dp, but they may just be humouring me!!

Another good find sycamore!
Are you lot all just googling tulle skirts as all I found doing that was Etsy and I'm not sure how that all works. Is it like ebay?

Tiger but of course, that's the real reason Grin you sussed me out!

Try Googling "Tulle skirts UK" or "Tulle Tutu skirts" a fair few options come up. But not sure how reputable any of the sites are though!

Not sure this helps you any, but here she is from the opposite direction. I googled "coffee tutu skirt"

I saw that one Tiger, it's the link from the Google image called 50 ways to wear tulle and features about 10 different skirts shot in 5 ways each! The article was from 2014 though so no luck tracking it down.

Thats true sycamore, never heard of any of the places that are being thrown up. I'd like to try a few on in a shop to see if it's a completely stupid look!

I have a skirt like this, but I bought it 20 years ago (am 41). I didn't wear it for years, but recently started wearing it again & have had lots of compliments. No idea where you'll get one now but, if you find one, there are plenty places to wear it...parties, out for dinner, cocktails on sat night...

Always worth trying the US department stores, like [http://intl.bergdorfgoodman.com/search.jsp?N=0&Ntt=tulle+skirts&_requestid=93515 Bergdorf's]]. They have a good selection. Not cheap, plus shipping and taxes adds a lot.

Is it the Goodwood revival you're going to?

I love it. It looks like something Carrie Bradshaw would have worn, I am a secret fan.

Have you asked a good dress maker? It may not be so expensive

That's my kind of thing! Pages on Pinterest dedicated to tulle skirts Grin

Here for seller of skirt:
elsiesattic.co.uk/product-category/clothing/skirts/petticoats-and-tutus/

Once you've found an occasion to wear it, let me know! I've been itching to order the grey tulle skirt for months but have a rule that I don't buy unless I need.

Love it. I know Ted Baker have one as I had my eye on it for a wedding but bottled it.

Oliva the second one you linked to is perfect shape but not a nice colour.
However the brown one (doesn't really look brown?) is top of my list!
Armani it's glorious goodwood on the 1st August, not sure if that's the same thing?

I'm so grateful to you all, I'm absolutely shit at all things clothing, you've found some amazing tutus!

Everyone who's tempted, just get on with it! Embrace your inner 3 year old Grin
