    "Hi, I'm looking for a dress. Yeah, it's black. Short. Really nice. Saw it in Grazia magazine''

    Not the easiest phone calls to deal with :p

    Haha, exactly! :) Some of the descriptions people gave me in RI were so shit - "My friend had this top on her the other day, said she got it in RI. It was sort of white. Do you have it?". Ehhhhh!

    The worst is when you do genuinely look for something, can't find it, tell the customer you don't have it but then they find it themself! :o

    My employers are very understanding. They know how much I enjoy a bargain. In their infinite wisdom they are helping me with my spending addiction by cutting my wages again. I am in awe at the levels they go to in the care of their employees.

    There should be more caring employers like them.

    It's good that they take such excellent care of their employee's, a company everyone would love to work for.;)

    :pac:

    Anyone watching Big Fat Gypsy Weddings? The things the girls do for the wedding dress, even if it weighs over twice their body weight! Think the girl from episode two (the mechanical butterfly dress) was on Alan Carr.

    I haven't seen the show but the dress wit the butterflies and the lights sounds mad. :eek: Wont be using it as inspiration for my own, that's for sure.

    How do they even manage to walk in those dresses?

    They're insane! Your one who makes them must be raking it in. And in cash :p

    Have you started looking at dresses? So exciting!! With or without mechanical butterflies...

    Oh yeah, that's the business to be in, making mad expensive dresses.

    Wont be looking for awhile yet but I'm thinking that mechanical butterflies have been done before. I reckon that mechanical pandas that climb up and down the dress are the way to go.

    I saw some of that episode. My god. How did they even get it out of the room? How did it not go on fire!? How must it have felt to be 5ft away from all your guests at any given time!?

    They don't!! They wade and struggle up the aisle (kind of defeats the purpose of an all out glam dress if you don't look elegant) and change into slippers on the dance floor.

    How they get out of the house baffles me.
