.... [https://www.johnlewis.com/76456/Style.aspx this?]]

But in a size 16-18?

I love the half sleeves, full skirt, length and neckline... anyone know of anything similar out there?

Have had a look for you tether but can only find it on the John Lewis site

Such a shame - that dress is gorgeous

No luck, sorry. It is very very nice.

Thanks... I have looked too, I don't think they make it any bigger than a 14 anyway, so I am looking for something similar with sleeves and a full skirt.

Any ideas?

Rrrrrrighty ho then Tethers

right length, sleeves a bit too short? not sure about the neck?

Not quite right

I can't find anything closer though, I'm afraid

And then this doesn't mean any of your criteria but is nice and has £100 off so wanted to show it to you

Hi Norkily

Ah, can't see me in that I'm afraid... you're right, it's the print. Also don't really like the shape- I want a fuller skirt, I think...

How's the IO skirt BTW? Have you got it yet?

I would get this if it had longer sleeves...

IO skirt delayed til May 17th

So cancelled order (esp as someone posted 15% off discount here so may reorder). May have gone off hte idea in a week or so anyway. Disappointing not to get instant gratification though.

Did you see my first post? or just the second one?

Am hunting...

BunnyLebowski · 22/04/2010 21:30

What about this?

Only in an 18 though.

Sorry, didn't see your first post

Even more sorry, not keen on them either... I think it's the sleeve length.

I'm fussier than I thought.

Thanks for trying though

JL again so you probably already saw and rejected it

You didn't give your budget

Not having much joy elsewhere though

May have to go and socialise with family now

cornsilk · 22/04/2010 21:34

T'is gorgeous tether

I've been trying to find you the bottom left one here which I love but I think it's a few seasons old.

Sadly I'm too much of a shortarse for any Jasmine Guinness dresses

Gah- some lovely ones including that one on ebay BunnyLebowski, but all small sizes.
