Have a few parties this year, normally don’t bother. I’ve been looking at this, not yet purchased. Pondering the blue or green. There’s a corset so I’m hoping it has some sucking in capabilities!🤣

This is amazing' where is it from?

I've just ordered this - not tried it in yet.

Purr

This - it looks good and is warm! Wearing to a ball. I'd normally go long and sleeveless but it's too bloody cold!

Ah thank you @evtheria ... I like them because they hide what I used to call baby belly (but since the baby is now nearly 2 I think cake tum is more accurate!)

Loubelle70 · 29/11/2023 08:11

Beautiful. Love it.

I've never done the sexy party dress and can appreciate the glamor and effort put into it, but this will likely be my choice.

Our wedding venue is hosting Xmas party nights and we're going to one on Saturday. Dress code is "dress to impress". My DH will be wearing his kilt and suggested that I get a white dress so we can get some "one year later" photos. We were married on new year's eve last year so it's nearly our 1st anniversary.

This is the dress I've brought. Wearing with silver shoes and bag. https://ohelloclothing.com/products/lucile-embellished-sequin-gown-white?variant=47355459305813

No parties to go to - so jealous of these outfits, would love to have an excuse to get one!

Beautiful. Love it.

Agreed, it's super glam. Kudos to anyone who has the figure and courage to pull it off i.e. not me!

I got this one for our work Do, but looking at the weather report for Friday, I might opt for trousers and a jumper!!

This is lovely! You’ll be fine if you have a massive coat like the model!

I am more than a little bit in love with this. It's gorgeous.

I got this from Wolf and Badger - would normally do a dress rather than a jumpsuit but thought it was appropriately Christmassy! My apologies for the very un-mumsnetty unironed bed linen 😁

Oh my god, I love this, I've just ordered it now for my Christmas party this year - thank you!

I've never spent this much on a dress before (or an item of clothing apart from boots for that matter)

I bought this in the Next Outlet store at the weekend. Not too sure about it although I like lots of aspects of it. When I got home I realised it was missing the belt so I'll need to figure out what to do with that. It was reduced from £60 to £18 though so 🤷🏻‍♀️

Bought this about a month or so ago in a size M - it hides a lot of sins. I'm over 60, 5ft 4ins, size 12. Will wear it with tights and will keep shoes and earrings discreet- the dress is enough. https://www.zara.com/uk/en/sequinned-mini-hessian-dress-with-fringing-p08741271.html?v1=291402713&v2=2290830

Party: will wear an old Boden plain black cashmere sweater, a statement necklace from Zara, and a ruffle skirt from Hush which was from vinted...

I haven't decided if I'm going yet but if I do I'll wear this.

Need to make the boobs perkier and decide what colour to accessorize with.
