    ISO one-piece/Dress for conservative wedding

    Hi Ladies,

    looking for a dress that is on the conservative side for a wedding performance on July 29th.

    since I rarely use dresses, I'm looking for something relatively inexpensive, around $250 or less would be great. It can be well loved, just needs to still be in performance shape.

    -sleeves on the dress would be great, but not necessary
    -can have mesh in the middle, prefer colored mesh. If it has skin colored mesh can't be a scandalous design.

    my measurements:
    B/C cup
    32" underbust
    30" waist
    36" upper hip
    40" lower hip
    need 55-56" length from back of neck down.

    if you have anything let me know! thanks!

    I still have this one and have not done anything to it...also have a chunk of blue mesh that could be made into a shrug with sleeves...

    For the Raqia Hassan dress, i can do a partial trade with your Eman Zaki animal print melaya dress.
    For the Mamdouh dress, i don't want to go too far but i think you can sent a pm and discuss he price with my dance partner Ingrid.

    I have this one that was Amelia's at $275... I can see if she's willing to sell it for $250 if you're interested. The nude mesh is a little scandalous but you can always replace it with a different colour or fabric

    I have these 2 that are too small for me. They have never been worn.
    $235 + ship
    They would fit your measurements.
    If you like either and would like detailed measurements please let me know.

    I have a silvery aqua colored one that I am considering selling. Previous owner says she only wore it once. I have not worn it. $300

    I need to take a picture of it.

    Re: ISO one-piece/Dress for conservative wedding

    I've got this fabulous purple dress! The measurement from the back to the floor is should be considered below the shoulder blades, as that is where the dress rests. Not sure if that makes a difference. It is currently at $275, but will go to $250 if you want it.
    Cheers!
