I need help to find a lovely sequined sparkly party dress to wear to a party in October
I liked the look of this here
This looks like it is an old link
I have tried Phase eight, house of fraser and John Lewis on line and nothing is sparkly enough. The party I'm going to will be bling-tastic so understated is not going to cut the mustard
I am 5 foot 4 and slim
Would like longer length and sleeves but can go sleeveless but I hate strapless/bandeau etc (can hold my own in cleavage stakes but feel too exposed without straps) Budget I suppose should aim to be less than £200 but don't feel limited by this, I have been known to spend more if the dress is right
Has anyone seen anything in their travels?
Thanks

French Connection is good

What about dropped waist like this and then can re-use for my Gatsby party?

I am sequin obsessive for nights out. My last two dresses one covered in gold sequins, one in black, both from Mango. Top Shop got lots of sequins going on st the moment too.

TK Maxx also good but you need to go in daily. I got a gorgeous pair of black sequin shorts by Reiss reduced from £120 to £22.

OMG *vigglewiggle's" dress is stunning!!!!!

DarrellRivers · 11/09/2012 18:40

And the price and the free delivery
Have ordered and hope it fits
It looks the sort of dress which is fairly timeless so should last me a few parties
Will report back
Thanks for all the links, ebay is amazing and am going to buy vintage flapper dress in near future so am looking forwards to that
