Title: StyleArc's latest offering
Post by: maliw on May 28, 2017, 17:09:11 PM
 I've just had an e-mail from StyleArc, for anyone wanting a similar dress to Kate's dress at Pippa's wedding have a look at the following:-

I had that email, and went 'ooh ooh new StyleArc gimme gimme'.  Then groaned.  It's not their usual thing is it?  Mind you, they did really well selling knock offs of her stuff when she did some tour of Oz a while back, so can't blame them.

It definitely isn't for  me. Like you , when I get an e-mail I usually have to hide the 'card' before I open it, but I thought I'd put the link on here in case anyone was looking for something similar.

Exactly the same here - excitement, disappointment, but then a certain admiration because it does look like a pretty good representation.

Now, Stylearc, we want some of your more usual fare to make up for the disappointment.   ><

I didn't get the email but I do like the outfit, however it's way to dressy for me.

Not my thing.... very mumsy, I don't like those gathers under the bust... they make you look like your boobs are in a saggy bag.

It's a pretty good copy of Kate's dress. Not my style but I imagine there being some mother of the bride dresses popping up from this pattern.
