I need to find this dress

24 replies

I have fallen in love with a dress for my 2yo dd but it is out of stock everywhere. Has anyone seen anything similar anywhere?

It is her birthday Saturday week and I want to find her a new dress for her party. It is in the park so needs to be reasonably warm / not ruined by a cardigan and want something nice but not overly girly.

Will pay up to £50.

Thanks in advance.

I'm not sure if you'd think it is similar or not but I love this: www.thekidswindow.co.uk/html/ReadRecord.asp?product=8643&category=2

Thanks alien - I did see that but she had two of the Plastisock peace suits last year and though I loved them I really like the bright blue of the dress. She is very pretty so I like to put her in a bold colour to stop people cooing over her wherever we go .

No help here sorry but Plastisock? What a name for a brand! Conjures up images of a mouldy heel plaster stuck to your sock when you take them off.

Lovely Clure but she already has it!

Ooh Plastisock do some really cool stuff!

Have you seen they've got the a very similar fabric to your blue one still in stock but in green a-line?

Perhaps she could wear a long-sleeved top underneath if it's chilly?

Scandinavian clothes are cool!

Not what you're looking for at all, but I like this

What about this yellow cloud dress

Again totally different but might this orange stripy dress do?

I like it in purple but it's short-sleeved - perhaps with a long-sleeved top underneath?

Right, thanks for all the links.

I loved the Cloud dress but the colour isn't great for dd. I like some of the others too - the Polarn O. Pyret blue dress is really nice but dp doesn't like it.

I have looked blardy everywhere! I want bright, funky, long sleeves - can't be that hard!

Thanks all.
