Henley. Stewards enclosure. FFs knee length dresses

[Enragia]

I look shit in anything full or gathered or long. What the hell will I wear.
Have a davina that iirc is on knee. How fierce are know nazis?

Swooshed past Laura Ashley. She made me try on a grey maxi. Looked bloody nice actually. Was shocked.
Will await sale if Tesco no good

No link?

I remember going to Henley one year and there was one woman in the members' enclosure who had what would have been a very nice dress on, had it not been for the fact that it revealed a boob. Obviously she was braless, so she strutted around, looking like a total twat with a tit hanging out while all the men were sweltering in jacket and tie. No-one was particularly impressed.

Sorry, no advice about a suitable dress though

A whole boob?
No. Not on site. Donkey grey with floral border. Woman tapped nose re potential imminent sale.

This one? V good I think - not too much volume, avoids pregnant look, proper shoulders.

Reminds me of the nuns pinning brown paper into skirts that were too short.

Yes. Was slim. Still unconvinced by maxi thing though

Maxis are for holidays on hot tropical islands

Laura Ashley does it for me every year, although I am now recycling "vintage" ones from the 1980s. Drop waisted with a pretty hat picking out one of the colours in the dress and a matching pashmina. Have fun.

Yes, a whole boob. It was neither a particularly attractive boob nor a particularly good look. It was about 80 degrees that day and all men had to keep their jackets & ties on. God knows how she got away with it (or even wanted to).

sadly the tesco one's waist was almost under boobs.
skirt was nice

( oh tis me btw)

lol @ yet another namechange.

what options have you got now?

RIght

wake up all of you
the asos midi maxi dress came - i liked but was def only comfoy for sopping about at home. H says strapless no good on me and I agree - think either straps or cleavage enhancing.

i went to Phase 8 today and tried on the maxi skirt in a 10 was nice and only £49 - will a vest top be dressy enough for it though?

no

You were going to wear jacket too weren't you?

I'd have thought you could dress it up but I've never been . . .

yes but it just was a bit meh

it's not right, Rabid, you know that. You canna make a silk purse out of a sows ear.

Get thee to LK Bennett @ Gunwharf and take me

this screams maths teacher, doesnt it?
sigh

worse - Geography! horrors.

I still dont like the blousey tops to that style you're obsessed with linking to

they seem to be oblig with midi skirt

right i have ordered this from next now.
would actually wear again. have ordered in TALL size - eh? eh? clever!

That's like the Hollow Willoughbooby one I linked - too formal, no?

Similiarly, I have an LK Bennett aqua version of the Roland Mouret Galaxy dress but it's a 14. A small 14, mind. It's going on ebay this week when I can be arsed to do it. But you're welcome to it for a snip.

V. Million pound drop

Urgh - loathe Davina McConk

The Tall may mean the waist is too low. Proportion not just length innit
