For my 50th, I bought an Amanda Wakeley dress.....I loved it!

MonsteraCheeseplant · 26/06/2020 23:20

I'll have a look, did you buy online? I'd prefer to buy in a store but don't know where to go.

I live in Greater Manchester so went to Harvey Nichols and purchased there. Superb service plus champagne while choosing!

MonsteraCheeseplant · 27/06/2020 08:37

We've got a Harvey Nick's in Birmingham, good idea!

Bombshell dresses?

whiskyremorse · 27/06/2020 08:44

Bombshell are lovely and John Lewis has a load of event wear in their sale as people haven't been buying it in lockdown!

MonsteraCheeseplant · 27/06/2020 08:53

I've never heard of Bombshell before. What do you think the target demographic is?

i would recommend Elsas boutique in muswell hill

SinglePringle · 27/06/2020 09:04

Look on The Outnet for reduced designer. Bombshell are very Mother of the Bride.

MonsteraCheeseplant · 27/06/2020 09:15

Yes I was thinking that SinglePringle. Thanks, will look on The Outnet.

This dress made me laugh so much!! I only just started looking on the Outnet but that's hilarious!

Holy moly. And there's only one left. It looks like a furry version of a drumstick lollypop 😂

MonsteraCheeseplant · 27/06/2020 12:24

I couldn't quite put my finger on what it reminded me of but maybe that's it!

It's Bagpuss!

MonsteraCheeseplant · 27/06/2020 12:38

Ah yes that's it!

I am otherwise loving netaporter. I wish it was a physical shop though that I could touch, feel and try things on in!

FreakStar · 28/06/2020 08:18

Bagpuss! That's exactly my first thought too!

BernardBlackMissesLangCleg · 28/06/2020 09:16

God I love that outnet dress! in my 20s I would totally have rocked it except I never could have afforded it

MonsteraCheeseplant · 28/06/2020 16:33

Haha, yeah I could see wearing it as a fun young thing but not for that price!
