1920s Flapper outfir for a summer party - help?!

10 replies

wrigglytummy · 09/07/2010 20:24

I am off to a summer ball which has a 1920s theme - dresses knee length or below. All I can find is fancy dress outfits which look like horrid material or very short high street flapper dresses.....the ball is next Saturday....can anyone help me?!?!
Size 10 with dd boobs - so can fit a 12. I would love a red, orange or brown dress - but will live with any colour for the right style!
Please help me - I followed your advice for the firetrap bellamy maxi dress a few weeks ago...which I LOVE! So I back for more advice!
Thank you xx

Bit cheaper

ooh - I'd seen the KM & TB ones - I was hoping to find something a bit cheaper - I love the Miss S one - I wonder how short it is - but love the detail & colour...thanks, I may order it & see (no chance to escape to the shops this weekend or during the week.... :-(

They're all pretty and would be lovely to wear afterwards.

I really like the KM one but it is pricey.

this is VERY cheap! Just team it with a feather boa and you're good to go!

Are you anywhere near SW London?
I have a beautiful brown Hobbs one with pretty beading you could borrow, size 12.

It's gorgeous!
