I've been on a massive apartment-perging sprea of late, and I think this has forced me into an unusually practical frame of mind regarding my clothes. I donated several bags of stuff already, but there's one item that I know I won't wear in future and that I can't bring myself to just give away...the turquoise custom dress. I know I went to extraordinary lengths to have it made and make it work, but I just never felt 100 per cent confident in it. I now have two other cocktail dresses that will get me through any occasions where the turquoise would have been appropriate and in which I feel infinitely better. I don't want to ask my seamstress for a refund, since the cost comes primarily from labour, and she certainly put that in.
I'm going to put an ad up online, but if anyone here wants it (for any purpose at all), you have first dibs.
