In terms of dress sizes really

TIA

No sure about dress size.

But this would be a slim bloke.

Are we talking drag queen?

KatyMac · 06/02/2011 19:55

so not a 12 yo girl who might fit in a size 8 if she were feeling big?

Damn - I found a very cheap black shirt - but it's too big

Buttons on men's shirts are the other way round.

Wearing men's shirts was the thing back in the 1980s - are we re-visiting this look?

For the Love of Pete!!!! I'm turning into my Mother.

Umm no - DD has to compete next week; in order to match her partners dress she needs a black shirt rather than the white one she normally wears

Good luck with whatever this is for!

You might as well try the shirt but I'd guess it'll be too big

KatyMac · 06/02/2011 20:08

Too expensive to try I'm afraid - I'll keep looking

I've got a black shirt I've just put in the charity bag (which is in the hallway til tomorrow). Think it is probably a size 10. It is a woman's shirt. PM me if you want it.

Ah! I still had an image of Lily Savage in my mind.

Glad we cleared that up.

KatyMac · 06/02/2011 20:15

Nah, not Lily Savage; have a look on my profile pics Wink

My collar is 15.5 in and I am a fairly slim man so 14.5 in would be a slim 16 yr old boy size.

KatyMac · 06/02/2011 20:18

So about 3 times DD's size Wink

Thanks

Katy should arrive today/tomorrow.

My bf wears a 14.5" collar shirt. He's 5'11" and fairly slim.

KatyMac · 10/02/2011 17:20

That's so kind of you Monkeysmama, we will look out for it tomorrow

Katy dp said he only posted it today (he was given it on Tuesday to post Angry) - I really hope that's time.

KatyMac · 11/02/2011 07:23

Oh, don't worry we don't leave until Saturday lunchtime - I'll keep my fingers crossed

OP posts:
KatyMac · 12/02/2011 12:10
