I'm not pregnant

Has anyone seen a non maternity dress like this? I have a ball to go to and this is perfect except its maternity.

There is a thread somewhere about someone who needs a dress to go to a slebtastic charity thing.... I think there were some nice full length wrappy dresses linked there.....

TK maxx often have very similar

But Isabella Oliver is designed so you can wear it when pregnant or not ...or at any stage of pregancy...

Maybe order it and try it

I had considered that but the ball is on the 22nd so I don't think I would have time to have it made.
