this is pretty and a bargain. Maybe the navy would be better

perfect colour with your hair colour

this one ?

lovely colour for you again

Ok find me shoes and accessories to go with this: www.picchumaternity.com/uk/acatalog/occeve_shift_dress.html

Got the purple dress with purples ribbon.

just ordered this to try on

for me?

That's nice Fransmum. Well i've decided that floaty dresses are a big no, no on me and the best ones are tulipy style. I ordered one from next and it fits perfectly until it hits my norks. It's so annoying I don't know why shops don't make dresses for cup sizes iyswim especially when they have a kind of cross over detail and a seam under the norks. There's no point in me getting the size up as this will be too big everywhere else. [sigh] On the plus side i've lost a stone now so onwards and upwards!

Just spoke to sil and she's going to come round later and take a pattern off the Next dress and make it bigger where I need it and make a dress for me herself!

brill!

i still haven't foundone i thought i had the other day but it was size 14.

hellooooooooooooo?

OK fransmom - remind me (I've scanned through, but it's a pretty long thread now) - you're size 10/12, red hair, straight up and down, budget £50, want something summery and floaty, yes? Anything I've missed?

Can you do sleeveless/thin straps/strapless, or do you want sleeves or a shrug?

Quite plain but a lovely colour.
Purple can work well for redheads.
I love this colour, but I don't know whether it would work on you.

Lovely and summery.
Also pretty
With sleeves (I think it's navy rather than black background, but not sure).
Definitely navy

Stunning colour, not 100% convinced about the shape.
Maybe a bit daytimey
Definitely flowery but not floaty, as it's linen.

Right you clever lot, now I need some help for my poor mother, she is 56 and size 8 (and a small one at that) she is sausage shaped, ie no curves, thick waisted. She doesn't want to wear strappy as (in her words) "My bits next to my arm pits stick out all squidgey"

She doesn't want anything too bright which would stand out in the photos, but doesn't want dreary black either.

So, any suggestions?

Are we looking for a dress only, or a dress plus jacket?

OK - quite dark, but not black - brown, with sleeves. Wrap effect should help create shape/curves.
Red (poss too bright), so also similar in navy.

Pretty colour.
Ooh this is nice, with more of a sleeve, too.

Brown again - nice with some gold accessories.
similar but with long sleeves.
Maybe a bit too much pattern but a nice shape.

I'd think she'd turn her nose up at the darker ones as she wants something quite summery, the blue Monsoon one is a hopeful though. Any more?

OK - floral but not too bright?
Another wrap
I like this, not sure the shape would suit her though. Worth a try, maybe.
Out of stock online, but you might find it in rl shops.
Another pretty print
Pretty blue.

Tea dress
Ooh - pink (or coral pink)?

Ooh Jackie, you are good at this! I think the pink rosy one is probably the best out of those (typical it's the out of stock one). Now hows about a jacket? [hopeful]
