Just had this made in Red Fan Birds and oh my oh my ladies it is faaaaaabulous!

short cap sleeve dress

Its also in their gallery under the pics of Nancy Sorrell looking raunchy!

I may have the sides taken in slightly as it is quite A line, but I am so so so delighted with it..

Its a birthday present to me from DH. I must remember to tell him.

Now, I red peep toes but wrong red, I was thinking maybe navy peep toe maybe??...

it looks gorgeous am very envious!
how does the sizing compare to a high street brand that i could compare to?

Maryqueenofchocs · 26/07/2010 21:05

Sizing is v v small. I am a 14-16 and I had to order an 18 , shhhh. Basically go on their size chart and measure yourself and then see.

It's made from a vintage cutting block so the sizes come up small as we all used to come up smaller!

It is a totally adorable dress, I keep trying it on and swooshing around the house. DS said I needed to give it a rest!

How tall are you, and where does it come to as I'm thinking of getting one, is it above, on or way above the knee?

Very nice! Have seen these before and they look lovely. I also quite like the look of some of the stuff from Trollied Dolly, which has a similar vintage feel - although not handmade in the same way . (Quite a lot cheaper though.)

Maryqueenofchocs · 27/07/2010 17:49

Sloanypony it came up v short, so I asked them to make one 2" longer as i'm 5'9 and I just needed some extra length.

notyummy will check out that site, not heard of it....altho I may see something i like which is cheaper...boo hiss!!

Well, I've now bought the long cap sleeve in the skulls and pink roses for a thing I have on Saturday night (it was in stock in my size). Hope it arrives on time - I might give them a buzz tomorrow and see if they can get it to me by then, apparently they despatch same/next day depending when you order so if sent tomorrow will be fine.

Thank you for this thread, can't wait!

Maryqueenofchocs · 27/07/2010 20:53

I phoned them and they posted next day. Don't get overexcited about the packaging for some bizarre (cost saving) reason they send them in a plastic bag which is a bit crap...lovely dress though!

Haha - doesn't bother me, they haven't actually charged me for postage and packing.

Though I did have, in my mind's eye, a fantasy of opening a big box tied with a ribbon and lifting the dress from layers and layers of acid free tissue paper...

Maryqueenofchocs · 27/07/2010 21:26

ahhhh....glad I managed your expectation then! Let me know if you like it..?
