Transformal For Sale
Like many of us, I have been busy supplementing my wardrobe for the upcoming Transformal, mostly via internet purchases. This has its pitfalls as not everything turns out as one would hope. The short story is that I have two dresses that are Chinese size 2XL and they appear to be one or two sizes too big for me which makes them around size 18 and probably 20. One dress is a retro 50s style suitable for the reception and the other a full length mermaid style for the formal. Both were very cheap, but acceptable quality, and it would cost more in postage than they are worth to return them. If there is any girl out there who would like them, I am happy to pass them on free of charge other than the postage and perhaps a drink in the bar if they fit. Please send me a PM if you are interested.

Hey Martina
Why not get them altered? Perhaps there is a TGR member who can help? I am sure there is a seamstress or two within our number. If not, there must be plenty of cleaning and alterations outlets who wouldn’t mind the business of a tgirl. In fact I have had clothes altered commercially in a similar situation (place in the Dymock’s building, can’t remember the name – I just told them the measurements I wanted and they did it – they didn’t even know it was for me. Good luck!

Thank you Tina. I had already thought of that but, as I have other dresses in the pipeline, I would prefer to give them to someone who might want them. Otherwise, I will just give them to the local charity shop.

Well honey, I wouldn’t say no to the black one with the egrets…. I’d want to give you what it cost though.

Hi Martina.
If it’s not too late, I’d love the red one. Happy to pay what it cost.

Hi Simone. Yes I still have it. It would be a size 18 or perhaps 20 in Australian terms. (I am a 16) After I complained to the supplier that I had been misled over the size, they refunded my money and what’s more told me to donate the dress to charity! If you wish, I can simply bring it to the Transformal and give it to you there. As it did not cost me anything, it is yours to keep. It would be improper of me to ask any money for it, but if it really does fit you, you can if you wish buy me a glass of something at the bar. Probably a bit dangerous at this late stage to post it to you, but can do that if you want. Just let me know what you want to do.

Oh that’s great. I’m happy to collect it from you at TF, so long as you’ve got room in your bag? A glass of something definitely coming your way. TYVM
