I’ve just found a beautiful Etro dress I’d forgotten I have!

Bought from netaporter in August 2019, it was much too small, stuffed it back in the box and put it in my study. Forgot about it as I went on holiday etc etc. Was just on netaporter looking for something to wear to ascot and suddenly remembered it. I’ve lost a lot of weight since then. Put it on - it’s perfect! Actually a bit too big but works nicely with the current looser aesthetic. And really beautiful 💕

Interestingly it cost £890 back then and now all the same sort of silk dresses are between £1100 and £1400.

Anyway I’m totally thrilled.

Oh goodness, it is BEAUTIFUL! Enjoy.

Enjoy!

Because you had forgotten about it, and presumably had also forgotten paying for it, I’m going to suggest that you could view it as a free dress which is even better!

That’s an awful lot of money for such an ugly dress.

It's a lovely dress, enjoy!

@dovess what a bloody mean comment! There was really no need and you could have just kept your thoughts to yourself. Honestly, what is wrong with some people?
What a marvellous find and it looks beautiful and the type of print that seems quite on trend this spring summer.

Wow, feel better for that do you? You've just shown yourself up.

I would love to see you wearing this gorgeous dress!
What a wonderful surprise 💖💖💐💖💖

That’s beautiful! But … you spent £890 on a dress and forgot about it ?!

littlebilliie · 17/04/2025 21:49

Very beautiful

Enjoy - it’s very pretty!

Ignore the ride person above-would you say that to someone in person? It’s just so unnecessary and mean.

Delphigirl · 17/04/2025 23:13

Luckily I have a very secure sense of style so it is water off a ducks back.
But I admit it looks much better on than on the hanger.

I love Etro! I keep a close watch on Vinted for their stuff. Do you find it fits true to size, or like many designer labels does it run small?

Delphigirl · 17/04/2025 23:28

It is Italian which I find always runs small
