I need a dress to wear for a Ballroom Dancing Competition.....

[Katymac]

I have this one for the latin round - which is perfect

I need something similar but ankle length for ballroom

Any suggestions (must be able to wear a decent bra underneath)

long and full are hard to find these days

purple one here?

will keep looking

guess this kind of thing...

I seem to remember (hazily) that the girls who did competitions wore this kind of thing...

The second one is nice - but I think the material would be hard to dance in.

The 3rd one is a definate none starter - I am a social dancer not a competitor

ah right, and yes, you want swishy chiffon rather than stiff taffeta

[continues search]

The first is a 2 piece and I worry if there might be a gap (though it is very pretty)

I ahve one I could lend but its calf length rather than ankle sadly (no use to me whilst PG LOL)

Same shape as the debenhams one, but in a pretty greeny colour (Monsoon green) with a bronzey taffeta overlay (size 12 - 14)

if ica n help just holler

Might be a bit small

Sounds lovely tho' I love that sort of colour (very kind of you to offer)

have you checked out bridesmaid dresses?
this kind of thing looks hopeful

similar on ebay - shame about the straps...

Bit too big surely, notice the one you got was a 10!

No sorry I didn't buy that one......it was just the picture I am a generous 14 sometimes 16

good length -not sure re the 'custom made in China' bit...

That first one is nice - I can't see a price?

That one is very short?

(did you see the descriptions of the colours)

pretty much like it, if not identical 9is as afr as I can see) 14 on the label so if monsoon 14 fits feel free (has straps though, a shrug or similar would do- I wore a very supportice strapless corset thing underneath)

Would suggesta trip to Monsoon, they ahve far mroe of this thing insture than on their website)

will prob be Stupidly Expensive, was only fishing for ideas

Katymac - never mind the descriptions of the colours - scroll down further to the descriptions/diagrams of the measurements. eg, 'The nipple arrives nipple' and 'The front length shoulder arrives loins'. Someone has used an online translater to devastating effect.

where did my links go?
bet the dollar sign screwed them up

$ 139
$ 170
$ 132

shorter means they can see your footwork, which is a Good Thing

I know ...but I just loved "The long spring spends a plant" which is cornflower blue I guess

the long spring spends a plant? now i want a dress inthat colour!!!!!!!!!!plmsl!!!!!!!
and the measurements!!!! one of them was 'breast operation mistake inch'-oh god i think i'm going to wee myself!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Seeing my foot work is a very very bad thing

You haven't seen it....so you don't know

I have been told about 2 inchs above my ankle bone

Um how much is $140...about £80

Hmm I'll have a think

this?
