URGENT LETS DRESS JUSTINE thread

[SuSylvester]

for she is on telebox on election night
am thinking plain dress, maybe a bit silky
lots of fabric/cowl neck mebbe as she is VERY slim and cantake it
maybe thin belt

Here's a nice tweedy thing and shoes colours are maybe boring though. Justine has a lot of good quality hair iirc.

I think she should wear this

grey grey grey.

gorgeous with her colouring.

it's the dress in the top right corner

OR, the Charing dress on this page

Have completely forgotten about this and now am up against it because it's too late to order online so I shall just have to go to the shops . Have we concluded anything? (Warning I don't do accessories well. Or grey. Or shoes.)

But I have a Hobbs and a Monsoon quite nearby, so i could pop out tomorrow... HELP am panicking! shall I ring Johnnie B?

i think you should go to bed so you don't get bags under your eyes!

fwiw, i assume you'll be sitting down, and prob leaning forward slightly. anything you try on, pose like that - you don't want something that reveals too much once you're on the sofa.

Quick look at Hobbs and Monsoon websites and found....

Madina dress in natural at Hobbs.

Navy blue at Monsoon.

And no, don't ring Johnnie.

RING JOHNNIE B

You KNOW he will oblige in order to get his clothes onto An Important Lady on An Important Night on the tellybox

HE WILL HELP YOU

Love the Hobbs Madina

Depending on your colouring I'd try the yellow

i like the Tina dress from LK Bennett. Won't clash with anything, nicely shaped, has some ruching so not too dull. When you say you don't do shoes well, I assume you mean heels, rather than going barefoot?

We need to know if you'll be sitting/standing etc - if sitting, you could walk to sofa, then put on heels. not such an option if they will film you walking in, or if you're standing.

If sitting, belts/embellishments at the waist won't show properly & could look odd.

DO NOT cross your legs above the knee - if you must cross legs to be comfortable, do so at the ankle.

Don't fidget either!

Don't ring Johnnie, you need something that half the audience won't go 'oh I know where that's from'

LOOK JUSTINE
ring blardy net a porter and get it sent across london
you are VIP
tell them

right bollocks
I am up orrying so have put worry to gooduse and have EMAILEd the NAP press and fashion advisor thing
they HAVE YOUR DETAILS

Not sleeveless. If she is sitting next to men in suits she will look like she is having a hot flush!

Donna Karan dress

colour is slate, although J said no to grey

Philip Lim jeweled top

pleated tulle jacket

awesome, but perhaps not very practical!

shar.es/mGihp Cos shirt & trousers
shar.es/mGi4h sculptural layered dress seen in store in navy blue and dove grey

Do you mean Net-a-Porter lending gear, Oscars-style?

If so and you don't want grey then safe but simple

or

this purple one

but to be honest, Justine, we will give you the day off today to go shopping & try stuff on.

Ah - did the link wrong, it's the shar.es not the html link sorry.

OK it's grey

love that purple VW one ! We need a mock up of the finished look

Thank god for Su

Oi LadyGardenia
You might give her the day off, but the rest of us here at the towers aren't likely to
