Where could I get a dress similar to this?

I’ve a college 25 year reunion dinner to go to next month and want to look decent!

I normally go for jeans and a nice top but I’d quite like a dress for this occasion. I haven’t bought a dress for a long time!

A friend has this dress whistles dress which I absolutely love burn it’s sold out now.

Any ideas where I could get a dress like this? It has to be almost knee length as I don’t like short dresses and I’ll have bare legs.

Preferably light sleeves

Really suit blues

Size 10

Thanks for any suggestions

Get it, you’ll regret it if you don’t!!

You can sell it again if it doesn’t fit.

Passmethecrisps · 22/04/2018 20:11

Get it! Get it. Get it.

Last time I hesitated over a frock I fell for (which never happens) I ended up sourcing it in France and having my in laws collect it for me.

Buy it!!

DavetheCat2001 · 22/04/2018 20:12

Agree..buy it OP and re-sell if it doesn't fit.

It's a better price too!

JesusTapdancingChrist · 22/04/2018 20:13

Buy it OP!!!

It looks like quite a relaxed fit to me so don't see that it won't fit you if you're a 10. And even if it doesn't, you can re-sell it!

Just to say - if you miss that one, try Sosander and SilkFred for dresses.

If you don't get that one then do look at oasis dresses on ebay. I had a couple like that whistles one from oasis years ago.

They were elasticated around the waist so very forgiving.
