No? Why? It is very pretty indeed, but I wouldn't enjoy wearing it... I think? Not my cup of tea, too much covered but of course, she looks FAB.
I was just joking. Just meant that she's quite fabulous & stylish. Impossible to duplicate I think. Sadly if we tried to dress like her, most of us would probably look like we were wearing costumes.

Re: Petticoat Dresses - Where to buy in CH?

I bought this dress:
http://www.pinupgirlclothing.com/bir...ess-black.html

and this one:
http://www.pinupgirlclothing.com/ava-dress-black.html

And I love them. The only problem is so much is sold out on that site! It's annoying. They should really not show pictures of things that are sold out. I didn't buy the petticoat for the first dress and it's quite flared out. But I'm starting to regret it. I'm searching online for a petticoat to go with it.

I bought an awesome dress and fabulous shoes at this website:
www.topvintage.nl (you can switch to English at the right top)

Good service and cool website!

I saw that site. It carries some of the same dresses as the one I posted. I was going to order through them but since I was visiting the US I went with PinUpClothing. I'm thinking of getting the petticoat through TopVintage though.

From my experience, I can recommend this site... delivery was very quick and follow up through e-mails efficient.
And very attentive from them: I got a chocolate bunny in the package delivered (I ordered just before Easter).

Re: Petticoat Dresses - Where to buy in CH?

I thought of this thread when I was in Salzburg last week strolling the Linzer Gasse and a little shop had some petticoat dresses out on a stand outside!

I ordered at DaWanda in Germany, it was tailor made and sent to Switzerland for a very reasonable price.

The colors are actually just like you see them and I also found a pair of ballerinas in a very soft purple shade and a matching summer jacket. And I ordered it without the pink bow because I'm not a teenager and there is no need to point my bust out even more...

maybe I'll wear it on June 2nd?
