AIBU to think that this dress is an accident waiting to happen!

Definitely not a stripper outfit. It'd be impossible to get on/off easily.

It makes Elizabeth Herly's dress look classy.

Thanks for sharing OP!

According to reviews Dresslily items are never anything like the website. I've been trying to track down some of the nicer pieces, assuming they nicked pics. But that would mean there are at least two places thinking this is sellable. Shock

Vanilla you look fantastic! Do you have a wedding to go to?

Flamingoose · 21/04/2018 06:31

Gosh, what a funny coincidence. It's not often you log on to MN to find everyone talking about the dress you're wearing. I just chucked it on to drop DS at footie and pop round the supermarket. It's very comfy.

This dress deserves a poem.

Anyone?

PerfectlySymmetricalButtocks · 21/04/2018 06:36

Flamingoose no, you've got it all wrong. You're supposed to do all that in your holiest, most faded, stained pyjamas.

I'd wear this to my Ex's funeral.

Borderterrierpuppy · 21/04/2018 06:45

Do you think I could crochet myself one ?

joystir59 · 21/04/2018 06:49

I think you'd have to use spray adhesive to stick the dress in place and prevent it twisting around.

joystir59 · 21/04/2018 06:51

Or riding uo

I'd wear this to my Ex's funeral.
😂

AngryAttackKittens · 21/04/2018 07:10

Trying to take it off after a few drinks would certainly be interesting.

Stormy76 · 21/04/2018 07:11

I think that dress is meant to be for very thin model like girls......I would look appalling in it lol......like a sausage bursting out of its skin

ChazsBrilliantAttitude · 21/04/2018 11:02

Border
Just take a ball of wool and wind it around yourself. You’ll get a similar effect and coverage and if you get cold you can crochet some mittens from your dress.

Foslady · 21/04/2018 13:28

We need this posting on a bridal forum ‘Thinking about this for my bridesmaids.......’

supercalifragilisticexpiali · 21/04/2018 13:29

Foslady oh yes, but in a pastel colour!

MorningsEleven · 21/04/2018 13:36

I once saw someone wearing the white Kylie "Can't Get You Outta My Head" dress at a nightclub - in Penrith!

🤣🤣🤣 Penrith 🤣🤣🤣

MeYouWye · 21/04/2018 13:38

My Dh just thoughtfully commented, you would have to wear that somewhere specific, you couldn't really wear it down your local Nandos.
:)

YippeeTipTap · 21/04/2018 13:44

The Penrith comment has to be the funniest comment on the thread and there are a lot of funny comments

These are my favourite types of Mumsnet threads.

MorningsEleven · 21/04/2018 13:47

@MeYouWye

Bugger! I've just ordered one for a date at our local Wetherspoons and I've booked in to get my fanjo waxed.

Madonnasmum · 21/04/2018 13:50

It's now following me round the internet. Sincerely hope it dosnt pop up while I'm at work!

MorningsEleven · 21/04/2018 13:53

Surely you're goung to buy one for important work meetings?

BuntyII · 21/04/2018 13:57

My DH likes it

All the DHs would like it 😂

ErrolTheDragon · 21/04/2018 14:10

My DH likes it

But does he have anywhere to wear it to?

ChazsBrilliantAttitude · 21/04/2018 14:12

Yes Bunty
But would it suit them...
