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

Yes it's nice that scoop dress one - purple better than grey. Ok will call em and boden and see how we get on. Thanks!

Oh God, that Viv Westwood one is gorgeous.

You people went about this all the wrong way. Should have started with:
BANNED COLOURS

• red
• yellow
• blue
• possibly green, but who even knows whether or not they're in the election
• black
• white

No fancy fancy patterns
Nothing low cut
Nothing strapless, in case of replicating Judy Finnegan TV award moment (not that Justine looks anything like Judy, of Richard and Judy fame)
nothing super short (don't want to do a Britney/Paris/other lame starlet)

Can't do too high end designer, because then media will be all "oh, those MN moms, SO vain and wasteful". Ideally, something high street, but higher end.

Or this with a boyfriend jacket or one like this as will look edgy and cool - which is how you should look on the telly rather than safe

Purple Viv Westwood one is the best on here, without a doubt.

If it must be Boden, I'd avoid overt Boden-ish patterns and also strappy summer dresses.

The purple ad red one is the nicest but with a cardi, I think.

what about this one?

I think looking at what people are suggesting those things were taken for granted Abs!

Purple VW one LOVELY. Hope to see you wearing it!

Yup, the VW purple piece is perfect. I think it would really suit you Justine

so - have you chosen yet? I'm waiting with baited breath (well I'm taking a boredom tea-break

Trying to get the VW - worried I won't do it justice though.

if you won't who will?

Westwood is fab.

Send them a link to this thread and tell them that we will all email them to complain if they don't get it to you in time.

NAP do same day deliveries in london don't they?

OR ---- they have it at my-wardrobe. You could use your mn discount : )

Oh god, Justine, you must wear that purple VW one. I want it so much but can't have it, so you Must Wear It For Me.

Which channel is Justine on btw? Oh and when? If it's too late will have to sky+.

Justine - I have the VW and it looks amazing (if I say so myself). It skims rather than clings iykwim. Do you have some nice heels to wear with?

no no NO to boden [yawn]

get the westwood one, they are fab for girls with norks

not too short for sitting on sofas etc. flashing knickers on national Tv not correct mumsnet image

Please don't do boden - its too cliche-tastic.

Hope NAP are helping you

my wardrobe also have several Anglomania dresses but their warehouse is in Nottingham.

Justine, can I suggest this dvf dress. It has a bit more shape than the VW.
It's my favourite dress of the season, but don't have it sadly.

NO NO NO to boden.

Yes Yes Yes to VW

The VW dress is fab. And would be fantastic on you I would think.

And yes - what channel?

Natalie Massenet (NAP founder) is on linked-in - might help if you need a route to the top??
