Should I fork out the £25 or go the economy route?  [ You are not allowed to view attachments ]

I reckon you could get a similar effect with cling film. Do post a pic, @wrenkins , when you've made yours. Oh and maybe post a YouTube tutorial.

Spend £25 on the skirt @wrenkins. You don't want to compromise on quality!  :D

Yes Fran, but you are 26 and beautiful, you could, as they said of Marilyn Monroe, wear a potato sack and look a million dollars!

I don't think I could wear that, I'd be embarrassed at the amount of condensation I would accumulate on the inside.

@Puzzler the pocket amused me too.
Just wonder why you'd bother to wear anything
