policewoman
cowgirl
pocahontas

I know I asked something like this a few days ago, but I forget to mention that I’m 5 ft 11, and 17 years old, so all of the nice dresses people showed me would have made me like a right tart if I could have fit into them haha..

Anyways, I’d like a dress that is a few centimetres before my knee.. maybe one like 85-95 cm long, if you can help me I’d really appreciate it!

Kinda like these:

ALSO, if you know any good online shops where I can buy jeans for tall people that would be wicked. I know shops like New Look and Dorothy Perkins have sections for tall people online but do you know of any others?!

What shoes would look right with this dress?

Right, my prom’s coming up and I have my dress and I’m really stuck for what shoes to get. The dress is black (I know, odd colour for a prom haha) and it’s floor-length. It’s a halter neck and it has a weird back which is difficult to explain, lol. Oh, and there’s little beady, jewel things around the waist/below the bust.
Preferably heels but not too high as I’m already 5"9 or 10. So yeah, I just don’t know what style really; any ideas? I went shopping today and looked in Topshop, River Island, Dorothy Perkins, Brantano, Tk Maxx, Next …..
Thanks for your answers!
Hmm, another thing; would court shoes look alright? (You know the style I’m on about?) Or like strappy sandaly type things…the only problem is, I don’t know where to find them! UK shop suggestions anyone!?

What can I dress up as?

Ok, so at school we have a dressing up day and everyone goes OTT. I want to stand out but i don’t know what to go as!

I have brownish gingery very curly long hair (i don’t mind straightening it to go with the character)… in the past I have been Dorothy from the wizard of Oz, Marty from Grease and a Posh Totty from St Trinians.
It has to actually be a character, not just random like I’m a pirate or cowgirl or whatever.

i have considered Bella Swan from Twilight, and wear a blue dress, but it’s a bit boring… i have also considered being the girl from "The Exorcist" but i seriously don’t want to scare the hell out of my little brothers! Lol…

I wear shirts and cowgirlish boots and stuff all the time if that helps, but I can’t think of any cowgirls to be! i mean, Daisy Duke has blonde hair! … so does like Taylor Swift etc..
Please help someone!
i have also considered Christine Daae and Tiger Lilly… none of the ones I think of really do it for me though
my hair isn’t REALLY ginger, it just has ginger bits in it… im a brunette

Does anyone know where in the uk I can buy a plum/grape coloured plain shrug or cardy size 16 or 18?

i want a knitted dress
and i found one in the sale on dorothy perkins
but it looks too long to be a top?

http://www.dorothyperkins.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?beginIndex=80&viewAllFlag=false&catalogId=20552&storeId=12552&categoryId=68417&parent_category_rn=51643&productId=480603&langId=-1

it is in the top section but a different colour of this is in the dress section and they look exactly the same (style wise)

http://www.dorothyperkins.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?beginIndex=0&viewAllFlag=&catalogId=20552&storeId=12552&categoryId=68423&parent_category_rn=51643&productId=475872&langId=-1

what do you think?
i would be planning to wear the dress with brown tights and brown ugg boots
how short would it be?
and also would a brown belt look good as well
thankyou as well
i love the gold, but i think green is better for my skin tone as i am quite pale, thanks for your answers so far xx
thanks guys really have helped, im going to order them in bigger sizes 12 and 14 im normally a size 10/12 but i think that if its bigger it will come out longer,
and im not petite unluckily
thanks xx

I’m looking for an amazing dress for my 18th party. I’ve looked on Asos, American Apparel, New Look, River Island, Dorothy Perkins, Topshop, Lipsy, Amiclubwear.com, etc. I’d like one that is fairly short lol and if it was a bright colour too that would be great! Anyone seen any like this or know where I could get one? UK only please Thanks x

I am desperately looking for a black and cream dress for my friends wedding in december. But can’t find one anywhere. I’d like the main colour to b cream if poss. Possibly a top and skirt set would work.
I have tried the usual suspects i.e, marks and spencer, river island, debenhams, dorothy perkins, topshop, new look, miss selfridge etc.
I am 25, would like something classy above the knee length, possible prom style.
I’m also from the UK. Ta x

What is the name of the type of dress the girls wear in Picnic at Hanging Rock and where can I buy one?

Hi there, I’m looking for the type of white/cream dresses the girls wear in the film ‘Picnic at Hanging Rock’. The film is set in 1900 and I’ve also seen the dress in ‘Return to Oz’ which is set around the same time as ‘Picnic’ and Dorothy wears one. Is it a prairie/peasant dress?
They have lace and usually high necks and there are similar dresses worn by the sisters in ‘The Virgin Suicides’ so even 70s style dresses would be great. Here are the pics:

Virgin Suicides: http://www.missomnimedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/vs41.jpg

The dresses are usually white or pale coloured with flowing sleeves, lace or embroidery usually to signify an angelic quality.
Do you know where I can buy one?

Thanks a lot

Hey, it’s my Dad’s 40th soon, and I’ve gotta find a dress.
We’re going to a posh (seriosuly posh) restaurant with my family in June.
I’m on a budget,as Mum says she’ll buy, I’d like to try and find a high street dress which I can wear again, and I need to find shoes and accesorises toooo!!!
Shoes – gotta have high heels.
Please help, I’ve looked on Dorothy Perkins, Topshop, Next, Selfridges, Asos, Boohoo and River Island, and I can’t find anything I like.

Thanks! xxxx
