Where to go for pretty little girl dresses?
At a very good price please! Against my better judgement, my angelic neice has been asked by my mum ("It's HER wedidng after all") to be a 'flower girl'. She wants to be "Auntie Nikki's Princess" (Awwwwwwwww) but I can't spend a fortune on her - something little and fluffy and cute for a 3 yr old please, at a decent price????????
Ta team,

Depends how cheap you want to go but Woolworths had some beautiful little girlie dresses a couple of months ago (not sure if they still have them) and they were so reasonably priced it was amazing. They didnt look cheap and nasty though and were really very very pretty.

I agree, Monsoon is the place to go. I was looking at the weekend, even though I don't need to. Lots in the sale if you hurry. Betweeen 35 to 50 pounds. I nearly changed my mind about having a flower girl/bridesmaid.

Elysia's dress was from Next and she's a tall 2 and a half. But from the directory me thinks.
Buy now because they won't stock them over the winter, miserable buggers.
And Monsoon's dresses don't go below 3 because they have sequins on and think they might choke anyone smaller! How daft!

I got meglets made. It cost £80 but was perfect. She is two. It only took a few weeks to make.
Have you tried any dressmakers? they can be surprising!and you'll get something that fits in the end.

Nikki,
We've just been to the Trafford Centre and Debenhams have a decent sale on at the mo with some nice stuff, as have Monsoon which had some pretty cute little dresses on sale.
Right, just off to do something manly and "testosterone" after that!

We checked another Monsoon for you yesterday Nikki (aren't we good? )
They DO have red velvet -looking type dresses with feathers (aka 'fluffy bits') around the neck - the smallest size I could find was age 3/4. |
