That Nigella dress!!!!

47 replies

My husband loves that black dress that Nigella wears with the wrap waist, slightly asymmetrical neckline and 3/4 sleeves...... Does anyone know where I (or he) can buy it :-)

No, but I also saw it. Lovely neckline, flattering on most of us I think.
Can't help watching her but gawd she is bloody annoying. She chunters on about nothing. Makes my teeth itch.

not, but in a meandering sort of nonsensical way, entertaining, I think, in its own individually enigmatic(?) way. As Nigella might say. Yes, annoying.

It will almost certainly be Westwood.

like this one?

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 15/10/2012 21:31

Yup - Nigella wears VW a lot. I didn't see the particular dress but it sounds her sort of thing.

OnlyWantsOne · 15/10/2012 21:31

I've bought from them before. And I've returned items too. Good service

It is very like that Pretty Dress Company one! Is that it? Looks very wearable.

Ask her on twitter. Not sure they will have your husbands size...

Not the monochrome one with the white collar. It's the wrap like one with the off centre v shaped neckline that I like.

i like it too

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 15/10/2012 21:54

If you can get one in the sale, at around £100ish, it will be a good investment. Wish I could afford more but am on an economy drive now!

BikeRunSki · 15/10/2012 21:55

She wer Vivienne of Holloway dresses too.

BikeRunSki · 15/10/2012 21:57

Similar? Scroll down for colours, it comes in plain black, but short sleeves.

Heavywheezing · 15/10/2012 22:02
