Just want to make a shout out, don't know if you guys still remember me but this is Goldie, back here after like three years of not being here, and um, hi!

Baldur

Thank you mum23 and clorophylla.
Things are falling into place here. The restaurant has been reserved, all of those decisions made. The wording on the invitations has been hammered out.

WOW, welcome back Goldie!

I know, I know, I'm back. I'm trying to improve my TD drawing, but it's a huge work in progress

.. and what's this about 'too much effort', when it's one of the most significant days in your life ?
(LOL.. and do remember the old saying - marry in haste, repent in leisure )

Yes, chest size please... I've been looking online. Checking out my area. You just never know and I would be only too happy to help. And marg is right. *J*

Hazer

Hazer has sewn several wedding outfits and a pink ruffled shirt would not be too difficult. May I make a suggestion, Baldur? If you found a pink shirt that you like, you could probably find a seamstress that would sew ruffles onto it for you. Then you would get exactly the look you want.

Wishing you and Robert much happiness now and always!!!

ok here is a link to the 'dream' shirt...

This does not come even close to fitting me. and the colour is not correct. Ideally I'd prefer a lighter shade of pink, but medium pink or light coral would work in a pinch. Also the ruffles should descend all the way down to the bottom of the shirt as Baldur has no intention of wearing a cummerbund.

Interesting that the link doesn't work already.
Let me try again

The fates are conspiring against me.

Baldur

Here is how you can see it, as my computer lets me see it
go to:
www.google.com
click on:
images
type in:
pink ruffled tuxedo shirt
search
it is the seventh image shown, depending on your screen width it might be in the first or second row.
the clickable image shows the upper left quarter of the shirt front
I hope this works

10878. 17 Sep 2013 13:30

Baldur

and now when I search it's the 8th shirt lol

10879. 17 Sep 2013 13:32

Baldur

Thank you Hazer. I hadn't thought of just having ruffles added to a plain pink shirt. That is brilliant
But can I find a plain pink shirt in my size?

10880. 17 Sep 2013 13:50

mum23

You could buy a plain white one, which should be easily available, and some plain white fabric (to make the ruffles from) which is a similar fabric as the shirt so that they'll take up dye the same way, and then dye both the fabric and the shirt the exact shade of pink that you want (expriment on some scrap pieces first so that you get the colour and intensity that you want).

You'll have your pink ruffled shirt yet!
