Oooh, BK, do go for FWM. I have ahem two of their wrap dresses - my work staple, actually - and I look about three sizes smaller in them.

Where did you buy them motherinferior? I need to revamp work wardrobe before starting new job. I can't really buy online as have no clue what size I am currently (am wearing size 10 trousers and size 14 top today, go figure

sorry to thread-crash, bk

FWM at the Elephant shopping centre?!

Where abouts? Can you guide me from there from, say, Tesco?

I've just clicked on every link on this thread and have to say Bossykate, I really, really like the dress you chose. Will look great with boots as you say.

And am stunned that FWM has a shop in the Elephant centre!!!!

Am about to spend buy a few bits for me in Uniqlo.

PatsyCline · 14/12/2007 17:12

TK Maxx often have FWM too.

bossykate · 14/12/2007 17:25

dress arrived yesterday and it is indeed gorgeous - except not on me! i am too tall for it basically and the bust was in the wrong place as well as the skirt being a little short. what a bummer! it really is a lovely dress and suprisingly good around my problem areas! oh well. i think i may well be in black then.

thanks again to all for the help
