I love missoni and they never date and can be put on for all occasions (according to somehting I read somewhere)

Topshop? H&M (bit rubbish atm in mcr however)

I love Missoni, I remember it used to be popular when I was a teenager, then got forgotten about for a few years, so was delighted when it made a come-back.
Love the dress on your link, wish I was slim and rich enough for it!
tell us what you find!!

its simply beautiful and will suit you perfectly, hope you manage to find something

Tortington · 09/02/2006 19:06

on another note - i am a bit disturbed to find the lady in the dress has no head

you could try contacting my old German teacher. She had quite a collection of these, she migt let one go in return for a donation to the school fund.

Thanks everyone! There are some nice dresses in topshop at the mo but i can't decide if the one I like best suits me so am holding off until I get a revelation either way.

You would look gorgeous in that Scumstrel. I adore Missoni too although horizontal stripes not a good look for me at present
Hope you find the right dress XXX
