I'm your wash and wear girl and I don't usually wear my new clothes till the old ones start to scream bloody murder but today, I walked into DvF to find my dream dress.
Introducing ... the Jamilla.

It was love at first sight and it was honestly, an extremely flatttering piece to my very full hor-fun-filled figure. It was also on sale and although not my usual expense for a dress, I did just tell my financial planner that I want to relook my policies because I'm investing too much in my future and not enough in my now!
It was actually at an excellent price point but for 1 thing -- the top was a little too tight. The skirt was perfect but my shoulders just looked a little too erm, muffiny in it.
I wish I had taken a pic of me in it. The fabric felt sooooo good against my skin! I asked for the next size up but SA said they were completely sold out and this was the last piece. I *could* drop some weight but if I do, then the skirt might not fit as well since It's sold out on many e-tailers -- especially in this colour. I can't decide if it's the colour or the cut that I'm in love with but needless to say, I couldn't recognise the girl in the mirror!
There's 1 presently available online from the official store but it's at a premium. And I'm not even sure if I should go 1 size up or stick with the present size and exercise.
How? How? How?

A possibility is to get a tailor to customise this for me but I relaly don't know if i'll be able to find the same fabric or even land my grubby hands on a piece of cloth that's the same colour.
HOW?! :(
