Ok, I\'ve gone and done it again...

Tried on another thing meant for stock and guess what, it looks fab on!
It's a late 1950's satin wiggle dress with fringe trim woven in. I've always wanted one of these 50's fringe trim dresses and didn't think this one would fit as it looked small until I was measuring it today and saw that they were pretty close to mine.
It's perfect in the waist and hips but a bit tight in the bust. The bust measures 39" and I'm 40" so the only way I can get it on is if I go braless:D
Doesn't look to tight does it? 5 year old Jake took the pix!
Don't take any notice of my ugly mug, I'm really NOT photogenic!! LOL, the back of me looks fine though. :D

You're gorgeous!

And I LOVE this dress on you! Oh, to have your troubles! If 50's dresses fit me in the waist they are horribly HUGE in the bust.

Depressing, really..
 
It looks as if this dress was just waiting somewhere for you to find it.
You look fabulous Lei
 
oh you lucky duck, that looks flaming great...a french pleat on your hair, a ciggie holder and long black gloves!!! a few chunky pearls...and she's off.....
 
LOL, thanks for the compliments guys- I think it's resounding YES to keep it then!
I do plan on wearing it to the fairs but not yet though as I just need to loose a few more pounds so the bust is comfy (I'm 14 pounds off my target) so I reckon it will be fine for the 2007 fairs!:D
