A long slim maxi skirt from TopShop.
As someone who lives in trousers, This is a big step.

I am 6 feet tall, and don't feel like a transvestite, but quite ethereal.
I will waft through the ballgowns exhibition later at the V and A feeling like Stevie Nicks.

sounds fab :)

And the ball gowns exhibition is stunning - you will love it. Have a good time!

Well done - I love maxi skirts and dresses, but tend to wear them inside the house and lack the courage to go out in them. But then I am 5 feet tall and plump, so probably look like a toilet roll cover in them.

Being tall you will look stunning, channel your inner Stevie Grin Would love to see that exhibition - how long is it on for?

Ooo intrigued by a maxi that fits a tall person - linkage please?!

How wonderful that your niece designed it - sounds as if she has a really interesting job.

Bet you look lovely and feel all cool. Nice to wear something you usually don't, isn't it?

I have been channelling Margo Ledbetter today. I am just looking for a Jerry now Smile.

The exhibition sounds great, may have to try and sneak up without the DCs.

I am ALWAYS trying to be Stevie Nicks. Good work :)

Niece is 6 foot tall. Ditto dd.
We looked quite intimidating striding through the courtyard.
Such a lovely place...nice lunch too. And cool.
