  hi could you post please. im looking for a dress maker to make an entire 50s style swing dress. can anyone recommend a good one (low cost if possible)

  

  Alison S. replied:

  There is a website called ladyvlondon.com they have some lovely ones, most expensive £50.00. Often have ones in the sake. Hand made, so limited numbers made. Very good quality and great service. Just check you size with a tape measure before ordering. I wear a 12/14, but needed a 16!

  Not strictly lindy, but related and thought you lot might be able to advise - does anyone have any recommendations for places to buy 50s or 50s-style dresses? Asking for a friend who's quite small and has found vivien of holloway dresses aren't right for her. Any recommendations of shops or websites much appreciated!

  " I am wondering if you would have any recommendations for a dress for my brothers wedding this fall... I checked Pepperberry, and I would be a 14SC. Any websites you could recommend, preferably more on the modest side? Not looking for plunging necklines or strapless... I'm just asking around at this point. Thanks! Rebekah"

  I've always thought Lady V London tea dresses would be wonderful for weddings. There are some lovely prints, both summery and more formal http://www.ladyvlondon.com/

  Lady v London, dickens and jones in frasers, dolly dagger, eBay is also wonderful if you like a browse.

  Recommending Lady V London again - if you're not long-bodied like I am. I find their waistband too high. However SO many people on the boob friendly websites/forums I use absolutely love them. Aesthetically they are gorgeous fabrics and designs. Just not good for a near-6-footer with a long torso, sadly! If you are like me - there are some lovely frocks on Modcloth under the Stop Staring or Bernie Dexter brand, yes some have low necklines but not all. Much better for a longer body.
