Hello Genom! The picture wouldn't display directly, which indicates that hot-linking of images has been disabled on that website. To solve the problem, I uploaded the image to my Photobucket album and relinked it in your post. Richard

Hi everyone! Very excited about my latest Ebay purchase! It's a varation of a Karen Millen dress worn by Hayley. i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif(From Southampton 13 December 2007 hwi.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=Concert&action=display&thread=1036&page=15 ) I've always loved Hayley's black and gold beaded Karen Millen dress - I think my favourite short dress. I'd seen that it also came in green (as I love green!) and there was a variation that had long kimono like sleeves which I think are really unique. So I was very pleased when one in my size popped up on Ebay! i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif Here are some of my photos of it. These were taken at night, so the colour doesn't show quite as well, but it is a very pretty deep green. And a mannequin photo from Ebay: I just love it and the detailing of the beading is just beautiful. I would really like a sleeveless version like Hayley's. There's a few on ebay at the moment -- just not in my size! But I will keep my eyes peeled. Just a quick warning for anyone wanting to buy Karen Millen - the sizings are tiny. For example, if you are normally a small US size 4 - you will be a US size 6 in Karen Millen. Ask for the measurements of the dress and measure your bust, waist and hips carefully.

Ooh, that must mean the white one came in a gown, too! That would be sooo pretty! I think the black one looks better that way, too.

Hi Libby! I think you're right! The cream dress as a long gown would make a beautiful wedding dress. Cheers, Jillian

Hey Jillian, you can collect Hayley's dresses without actually wearing them! Richard LOL Hmmm... The last thing I need to do is start a trend of buying things that don't fit just because they're pretty! I'd end up like Imelda Marcos! Cheers, Jillian

Hey, that's a good idea! Do the people who collect all of Hayley's different versions of albums actually play them all?
