Prom outfit

My Dd15 is hoping to find a fitted dark purple tuxedo suit to prom in the summer. I've been looking online but no luck yet. Anyone have any ideas. She's about a size 10 if that makes any difference and would want to spend under £200. Thanks everyone.

Have you searched jumpsuit rather than Tux? You might have more joy

threesenoughthanks · 06/04/2019 21:08

I will give that a try. Thanks GreenTulips.

I bought a beautiful jumpsuit from monsoon in the sale for my daughter

Just had a quick look at Monsoon jumpsuits Vanilla. They seemed to be mostly wide legged or cropped and I think she wanted fitted. I'll have a better look with her tomorrow though. Thanks for the recommendation

There’s a few on next

Might be fairly easy to take them in? I think the body length needs to be comfy, but leg width would be a easy fix

Ooh never occurred to me to have something taken in. Thanks GreenTulips.

Also there's more results in burgundy rather than "dark purple" as such. Close enough?

threesenoughthanks · 06/04/2019 21:46

Burgundy or wine are the kind of colours she is after I think.

Have you come across this website: www.littleblacktux.com/collections/womens-tuxedo-jacket?
They don't do purple but there's a nice navy and a red. Based in the US but they ship internationally if you're UK based.

Love the idea btw - she'll look awesome!

Ooh that navy and black one is lovely thank you SadSongs. Just the style she is after. It will really suit I think so fingers crossed we find the right one.
