I have this and it's fab with white skinnies or capris.

I agree the website is a sea of grey though.

And I love the look of that dress.

Lace thing kind of 'sits' on you rather than clings iyswim, although does cling around the hips but stil flattering.

Ideally I'd like it to show off my waist more but it's still lovely.

Would probably suit a slightly appley shape I think.

Oh I didn't know that- I used to be a manager in Principles.
I love Mint Velvet- funnily enough, everything I have from there is....grey.

cocolepew · 22/07/2010 18:05

I love grey, I wear it now because black makes me look like a corpse.

cybilliberty · 22/07/2010 18:05

Anyone seen any MV codes ? Last time I placed an order somebody posted a 20% off code the next day so not going to risk that happening again

ShadeofViolet · 22/07/2010 18:09

I like the Lilac Pleat A-line
'tis grey though!

deaddei · 22/07/2010 18:24

I shall ask for people to wear grey at my funeral........

PlumSykes · 22/07/2010 18:26

Perhaps you could print an MV discount code in the announcement in The Times, Deaddei?

Deaddei, after Mosaic and Debenhams sold us down the river, there was a couple of groups set up on facebook as a support group and it was announced on there. Where were you manager? I was based in the Warrington solus store.
