If I like Me+Em..

[faffadoodledo]

I love Me+Em. It's the style but also the sizing - am long of leg and body and the clothes just fit. However i'm off to a wedding in June and feel buying Me+Em is risky and I could have a twin there! So if I like that brand, what else might I like?

Aren’t you just as likely to have a twin there by choosing another similar brand?

I wouldn’t worry about someone else wearing the same as me if I loved it and it suited me!

You make a good point! Regardless tho it would be nice to branch out on this occasion!

Sesun?
BA&SH?
Some Sézane, but length is hit and miss.

I hear you, @faffadoodledo! I’m not a Me & Em wearer but they’re so high profile at the moment that I’d hesitate to wear any of their latest collections for exactly the same reason.

Hmm … Similar-ish? Off the top of my head:

Alemais is perfection.

Christian Wijnants is simpler and more European. Slightly higher prices.

Doen is daintier - but I’m unclear about provenance.

Erdem - there are dresses that are less than four figures …

Rejina Pyo is a little more daring.

Thanks @HoxtHun
you put it well. Me+Em is becoming a little ubiquitous in certain circles and I think that’s what I’m worried about. which is a shame because it’s as I’d they’re designing for my body!
Off to investigate everyone’s suggestions…

Liberty London have an online guide to occasion wear. Liberty Brands They stock Rotate Birger Christensen, Roksanda, La Double J and many others.

Interesting …

The more expensive end of Self Portrait does have a look of Me & Em about it. But it’s just a shade downmarket of the latter, less ‘exclusive’, more party than work in its vibe - but there’s a lot of it.

La Double J is endlessly entertaining - and I regret not investing heavily in their silk shirts and fabulous bed linen and porcelain a few years ago. Great looking clothes but their prices have shot up recently.

Alternatively, I’m fond of Rachel Comey - but on the whole it’s better for day dresses than dressing up - and this is a lot for not-silk:

Agreed! Thank you for the tips on this thread xx
