Can I ask if any of you have seen these for sale anywhere please?

Preferably a jersey or cotton spaghetti strap skater dress. Price range is New Look/Dotty P/M&S/Primark.

Tia!

I'll wear it with this, which I have. Not original. I've got an original Ministry of sound one though but it's a bit small atm. I've also still got a pair of Nikes from back then too. I won't wear those though as I used to change the colour of the tick with nail varnish Grin

I messed that up. This is what I'll wear it with.

I was inspired by this thread and went out in my original 1996 strappy dress with a T-shirt underneath last night, big Nike trainers to finish the look!

When I get one I'm going to make DH take me to park in the evening to get drunk Grin

Ah 'dates' to McDonald's drive throughs (always on retail parks with a B&Q and carpet shop) with the first boys to pass their driving test.

Lovely quarter pounder for me and crushing disappointment for them when yet another girl just wanted a lift and no action.

Good times Grin

I'm very impressed you can fit into something from 1996 Beaver!
I was in my 20's when I wore these first time round so i was sensible and did my drinking inside Grin
I wore DMs,biker boots or knee high lace up boots, and a lovely lambswool, tiny, black and grey cardi with my biker jacket on top.

Shit, I really want a McDonalds now to reminisce and relive but I can't drive anymore because of my epilepsy and I'm too old to ask any 17 year old boys for lift... Wink

I think this look started around 93, I’ve still got a Whistles dress I bought then. My wedding dress was a strappy sundress.

PurpleDaisies · 23/08/2019 12:42

I had that outfit from C and A back in the day!

ElizaDee · 23/08/2019 12:47

OMG I loved C&A! We used to go in there when we first started going to Oxford Street on our own.

Oh God, I also remember this look from the mid 90s Calvin Klein era. I didn't wear it then and I can't see myself changing that now.

VivaLeBeaver · 23/08/2019 12:53

I think the dress may have been a bit looser in 1996 than it is now. 18yo Dd was out with me and I pointed out the dress is older than she is!

They have spaghetti strap dresses on ebay and amazon, loads of different designs, got about 6 quid.

ThatCurlyGirl · 23/08/2019 13:01

I just remembered Tammy Girl! Oh my days I loved that place 😂

ElizaDee · 23/08/2019 13:27

@LilouBlue Have you got links to the ones on ebay? I've looked on there and can't find what I'm looking for.
