Vivienne westwood anglomania in navy

Cant see a navy one on mywardrobe.com but have had a look and I love her dresses.

Can't remember where I saw navy one, but was orn witn tan heel and clutch, looked lovely, and fab for curves

geordieminx · 18/03/2011 22:06

here is the navy one

Christ I love it more every time I see it. Also good resale value on ebay, usually £120 ish

tethersend · 18/03/2011 22:07

Navy VWA here

geordieminx · 18/03/2011 22:09

Same links tethers Grin

tethersend · 18/03/2011 22:12

We're like a well oiled machine Grin

The Vivienne Westwood one is a beautiful shape but the neckline looks higher than I would usually wear. Bit scared of looking "low slung" on the boob front.

The Isabella Oliver one looks perfect and I love the colour.

Thank you!

So now the shoes, tan heels that you can walk in, anyone?

Jacket or cardi?

Actually looking on tethers link the VWA neckline looks lower than the other one. Im getting it! Maybe I will get them both Grin

Get thee to a VW shop. There is a lovely fuchsia one on eBay just now....

So flattering. So timeless. So beautiful.

tethersend · 18/03/2011 22:31

They are two different VWA dresses...

eloisah · 19/03/2011 12:52

Will have a look on ebay, cant find the lower neckline one in XL. May have to starve myself for a month to fit into L.

The sizing's pretty generous, so you could order the L and try it- it may fit Smile
