Posted a pathetic plea on 'wanted' but got super ignored.
Anyway, has anyone bought this www.toast.co.uk/product2.aspx?categorypath=daywear/dresses&productid=C1V5E&categoryref=%2fcategory2. as in size 16 (blue) that wants to sell it?
Or does anyone know of a similar style ie 3/4 sleeves, silk/velvet sort of thing?

What event is it for jeremyspants? I havent got one i'm afraid but toast are a good make.

Once a year dh takes me to a farmer's 'do'. We never go out to anything else and when I saw the Toast dress, I thought it would be perfect.
Most of the other dresses on other sites eg Ghost, Oli, etc are either too young (am getting near 50!) or frumpsville.
I thought the Toast dress looked elegant, sparkybabe.
I e-mailed them in case one got sent back but the do is on the 15th of this month. Prays for the frock fairy to grant my wish
Fingers crossed!

Lots of Toast stuff on ebay. Not yours in particular, but worth checking over a few days imo.

50 is not too old for ghost, its more your timeless elegance innit?

i love toast but be warned can sometimes be a v odd fit

Have blown kisses to the frock fairy and left it a saucer of wine.
Some of those dresses are lovely but I'm slightly on the wrong size of a 16.
I doubt I'd lose a stone by a week unless just my arms and legs went to the do.frantically regrets the monster tin of Roses
Most sized 17 are frumpsville imo.

What do you mean by a v odd fit,mazzystar? Are they on the SMALL side? sobs
