I would buy a Double J Long and Sassy dress but can't quite justify almost £1000. They are so beautiful.

This one:
gorgeous

I had a windfall and almost bought it, but sense prevailed, dammit.

But it’s under half price! Do it!

Would have to be The Vampire's Wife dress. Any one would do but I love this thevampireswife.com/products/the-sky-rocket-dress-blue

I would buy Carrie's millefeuille Versace dress. No other dress comes close 😍

In black.
With a black diamond crown.

Anything with crystals and embroidery by Elie Saab !

An elven gown by Firefly path 🤩

That Westwood confection is an absolute marvel, @FreddiesTeeth. I hadn't seen it before. Thank you! I often (heretically) find her stuff a bit pedestrian but, crikey, this is a boundary-pushing showstopper worthy of her reputation.

I can't pick one dress for the thread; I'm always seeing things I would buy if I could - and had somewhere to wear them!

I couldn't remember the name of this website so I've just spent 40 minutes tracking this down. I want this dress, and a place to wear it, and her figure.

Couture by Christian Dior. If I had about £20,000

Go to Santorini on holiday and you can get the photo shoot with this type of dress. You can even hire it. The assistant is there to throw the dress up in the air at the right moment. 😁

If money was no object, I'd buy the full Widows of Culloden collection.

Lovely. Love that site, some gorgeous items on there.

GettingStuffed · 13/07/2023 11:09

I love this, it's styled in a casual holiday style but with smarter shoes and bag it could be dressy too

There’s one dress I have coveted for about 20 years…
The dress Carry wears to “Bed” after getting dumped by Burger via a post it.

For formal occasions I'd love something like Emma Stone wore to the Golden Globes in 2015.

I'd also like to go to a really posh fancy dress party as Glinda.

More understatedly, I'd also really like this.

No red wine that evening though.

Money being no object (and conveniently leaving aside my less-than-Sharon-Stone-alike physique), I'd hunt down the Bob Mackie gold dress worn by Sharon Stone in 'Casino'. I've lusted over it for YEARS.

@GrinAndVomit - the grey one, with the hood? Yes! I loved that dress, so stylish.
