Please help my poor mum find a gorgeous dress!

[Catsu]

my mum has been looking for ages for a dress to wear to my brothers wedding.
She finally found one she loves that fits her criteria (fitted with sleeves) which is this one
www.phase-eight.co.uk/fcp/product/phase-eight/Dresses/Jeannie-Lace-Dress/201760925

Only to find out today that the brides mum has got exactly the same dress! she has had hers altered so mums will have to go back.
She is v upset.

Can anyone point me in the direction of something similar feel that is fitted and with sleeves that I can show her please?!
She is size 8 and blond if that helps
Thank you :)

My sympathies to your poor mum! Some suggestions:

Kaliko
This beige one is in the Debenhams sale but Kaliko is available at other stores too. There are also lace sleeved Kaliko dresses in purple and navy.

Reiss
Cappuccino and in the Reiss sale.

Phase Eight has other dresses of this style as well as the one she liked.

Thank you very much for looking!
The reiss one looks nice and there are a couple of other fitted styles with sleeves on their web page so I have sent mum the link

The kaliko one I think is too similar to the one she has to take back, has to be different enough for her not to look the same as the brides mum! It seems to come in a purple colour too though so have sent her the link to that just in case :)

Any other ideas of places to look or ideas on dress suggestions greatly appreciated! :-)

lk bennet comes in cream but i like the bright blue

Thank you!
Love the Issa one!! Also think the Karen Millen and lk bennet ones could be contenders!
Have sent all suggestions to my mum and will let you know the verdict :-)

I hope your mum finds something she loves - it must be so gutting to think you've found the perfect outfit and then not be able to wear it.

It's going to be hard for her not to compare or get something similar that isn't quite as good.

When/where is the wedding? How long as she got to find the replacement? I like the KM one too.

Don't know if this damsel in a dress one is worth considering too? There is a matching jacket.
