lovely

Do you think it would be suitable for a wedding? Do you think it will be as nice in real life?

Or have I got it wrong, is it horrible?

I love Fever and actually have this dress - whenever I wear it people always comment on it! I'm also thinking of buying this one: www.feverdesigns.co.uk/proddetail.php?prod=MAYD_Black&cat=2 but do you think you could get away with this for a wedding? I have looked at the grey one but much prefer the black and would get more wear out of it on other occasions.

sorry, it will be fine I am sure the only place I find them tight is just under the bust line and that style isnt too nipped in.

I have a quick look for codes cornsilk but didn't find any. But the dress was in the sale, reduced from £120 to £44 so still well worth it!

I haven't got a code OMDB - wondered if you had one as I like so many things on that site

Lovely dress. It would have to be longer for me so I wouldn't look huge around the middle but if you are young & slim go for it. Oh! I think it needs good legs too. hey! What am I talking about all clothes look better on young slim women

Love it. Love Fever dresses. Tend to come up a bit small IMO.

Lovely! But I'd look like a cotton reel stuck on a pencil in it.

Sorry I didn'yt mean everyone's hips would look big - just that mine are proportionally wider than 'norm' so that shape I would probably avoid - although I should try it as it's really feminine.

Thanks for the shoe adivce, I know nothing about shoes!!!

Lynette so you find them a similar size to Next? I have teeny tiny fried egg boobs so hopefully shouldn't be a probloam.

Will my hips look big in it then?

Lovely - and very pretty.
Would expand my hips too much but I'm envious of anyone who can wear it - as I'm sure you can.
Peep-toed slingbacks to go with, maybe?

I'm trying to think what their sizes are like. I always buy a 12 in Fever and Next...I don't buy stuff from New Look. I have been surprised how fitted Fever dresses are on top..I'm a 10 on top, but wear padded bras, and the 12 can be slightly tight.

Oh yes that's one of the ones I had admired on there, good price too but I am picky about materials so need to see & touch things in RL otherwise end up playing the order & immediately return game ad nauseum!
