Daughter (16 in a couple of weeks) is trying to find a dress for her school’s Winter Ball. It’s a reasonably formal occasion but she’s quite alternative in style (into punk, riot grrrl music). She likes these (in photos) that she’s found on Vinted / eBay - but they’re not the right sizes - and she’s tried on a French Connection dress that she likes, but isn’t completely sold on yet.
Requirements:
- knee-length or midi
- preferably not black (she’d like burgundy, red, blue or - at a push - pink), although she hasn’t ruled out black altogether
- thin straps (not sleeveless, not sleeved) or halter
- Size 8-10 (depending on sizing - the French Connection dress was much too big in a 10 but she’s usually a 10 elsewhere)
- Under £100
She really likes the neckline on the burgundy one (that’s the French Connection one).
Can anyone help us find her ideal dress? I’ve looked at so many now that I don’t know my left from right!
