Eeeek! Have just got the invite for a '40's/50's Hollywood Glamour' themed wedding...

[lovelybertha]

and I really can't spend loads of money.

Feeling quite uninspired and a bit pissed off about it

Please help!

Oooh I would love this but can see that it would be a pain. Which would you like to go for or would suit your shape better? Do you have anything you could use as a starting point for either era?

Here ya go.

I've just bought this dress from here and it's gorgeous. They're cheap as chips too.

Adore this one

Cute nautical

Pretty cherries

Black cherries

Sexy and slinky

Loads more on ebay ]

BunnyLebowski (love the name btw) - blimey, they are cheap!
The last one, the slinky red is a possible contender.... wonder if I could find a full-length one... Thank you!

RottenRow See, if it was 20's/30's theme, I would be okay - I'm tall, size 12 and am practically flat-chested. With my children also came a really awful varicose vein in my shin - so as a general rule, for weddings and the like, I usually go with maxi-dresses. I don't own anything that would be suitable dress-wise, but do have a brilliant pair of dark purple patent wedges...

any ideas?

Someone linked to this e-bay site on another thread. Lots of slinky long dresses, but mostly black or red. How about this in blue?

Oooh! You're definitely on the right lines with that blue one. I'm getting more enthusiastic about this now...

I guess I could use a bit of tit-tape to stop it from being gapey round the top

That teal one is gorgeous - very Jessica Rabbit!!

This is nice in the purple and in the red.

Oooh this is lush! You could really make it 1940's with the right accessories/make-up/hair!

I do like that first one Bunny - what colour shoes would you wear with that?

Do you think silver shoes with the teal?

Sorry - 20 questions here, but I'm so uncertain... don't usually 'do' glamorous!

Where is Otchayanie when you need her (I think I've spelt that wrong by the way apologies...)
