Dream dress thread?

Also, anyone know of a Taobao shop or a seamstress who sells decently made classic pieces like MM's St. Clair OP? I haven't seen this OP pop up in the EGL Comm Sales for ages with the amount of OTT sweet that's been swallowing it.

Warning about Charles' Crown. Heaps of people sold it (including me) because even though the maximum listed measurements seemed pretty generous, anything bigger than a 92cm small cup size bust looked awkward in it. The cut was just not designed for women with breasts. :(((((((( I was sad because my boyfriend bought me the set for my 21st and I had to sell it.

I have this coat! It's a lot less warm in colour in person (see pic), but still very nice. The only problem was that when I received it, it had a weird factory smell. I let it air dry a long time and the smell is mostly gone, but I still need to get it dry cleaned.
