Ok, posting here in the hope that someone can point me in the right direction, one of my sons has his promise coming up and wants to wear a dress with high heels.

I have no idea where to find a dress that will be cut to suit him, he is medium height but slender and obviously flat chested ( although he's not averse to 'getting' booms for the night.

Is there any where I can take him to shop or are there any online shops that cater for him? I've tried googling but getting nowhere.

Thanks

He looks so great! He reminds me of the woman that plays Ellaria Sand in GoT. The dress is so classy!

I have had a similar, but tempory issue here.
Ds is in the school play. He and 6 other boys are village ladies. They need dresses.
We managed to borrow one from a friend.
When he tried them on, he got loads of compliments Hmm
He did look good, they both fitted him nicely.
One was too long, but can be taped up.
Other places to look are charity shops.
Don't be afraid to buy a couple, try them on at home. Just keep,the tags on to take back the ones that don't fit.
Sure you a member of a catalogue? They are usually good for ordering a couple of sizes, then paying for any that you keep.
