Dear Anna,

Number one on most fashionista's 名簿（に載せる）／表（にあげる） for a dream wedding dresses is Neil

Cunningham (28 Sackville Street, W1 020 7437 5793 - by 任命 only).

His simple designs are classic and chic - an ivory silk bespoke dress will cost around £3-4,000.

Catherine Walker designed many dresses for Princess Diana and she also created Lady Helen Taylor's wedding dress. Her bespoke dresses start from £3,500. (46 Fulham Road, SW3 020 7581 8811)

For something a little more 同時代の try Jacqueline Hogan (649 Fulham Road, SW6 020 7731 0911) Check out her website at www.jacquelinehogan.com. I would also recommend Basia Zarzycka (52 Sloane Square, SW1 020 7730 1660) whose vintage-style gowns embellished with silk roses and objets trouves are a fantasy come true for many brides.

Dear Fashion 窮地s,

I am a 28-year-old 救急車 専門家技術者 (訓練生 Paramedic). I am 5'2", a

size 18 - 20 and 重さを計る about 13 石／投石する, with short dark blonde hair. I'm always in uniform for my 職業, and don't know what to wear off-義務.

My problem is I don't know what 形態／調整 my 団体／死体 is. I am large でっちあげる，人を罪に陥れるd and やめる muscular - I have big shoulders and 武器, an 普通の／平均（する） sized 破産した／（警察が）手入れする, a

reasonably 井戸／弁護士席 defined waist (lightly fat covered), very wide hips, large buttock and thigh muscles (with flabby inner thighs), and 厚い calves. To 構内／化合物 all these, I also have wide feet! I suppose my best description of

me would be "堅固に and comfortably built".

I find I spend most of my off-義務 time in ジーンズs and trainers, with long sleeved t-shirts. I hated the 最近の hot 天候, as I could not find

anything flattering to wear, and I am not looking 今後 to updating my wardrobe for autumn/winter because I don't know what to look for!

Dear Paula,

Don't worry about finding trendy pieces for autumn - instead stick to classics that will flatter your build.

As you are used to wearing denim I would start your new look with a 膝-length denim skirt. Look for one with a slight A-line 形態／調整 (try Gap,

Evans and Wallis) as this will skim your hips and 底（に届く） and disguise your thighs. Skirts are a 広大な／多数の／重要な way to 即時に feminise your look - try 包む skirts too.

On 最高の，を越す of your skirt you need a 最高の，を越す that 強調するs your waist. For day try a fitted blouse with three-４半期/4分の1 length sleeves and a 形態／調整d hem so you can wear it untucked. Forget the long-sleeved T-shirts and try a わずかな／ほっそりした knit

V-neck made from a good 質 wool/cashmere mix instead - M&S are doing some 広大な／多数の／重要な 安価な cashmere now.

When it comes to coats and jackets you don't want anything that is going to 押し寄せる／沼地 you so I would stick to jackets that finish just past your hips. As you have strong shoulders 避ける shoulder pads as they will only give you

unnecessary 本体，大部分／ばら積みの. A chocolate coloured suede jacket would look 冷静な／正味の with the

denim skirt (or ジーンズs) and smarter trousers/skirts too - look for one

without too much fussy 詳細（に述べる）ing to keep the silhouette わずかな／ほっそりした.

Finally, under your skirt wear 膝-length 中央の-heeled boots made from stretchy Lycra fabric or suede.

For most of us a wedding is the only occasion when one can wear a hat. 選ぶ a design that's not too big or flouncy to keep your outfit looking chic. If you want to splash out have a look at Philip Treacy's off-the-peg

designs which are surprisingly affordable. Also try Tara O'Callaghan who designed the two hats Zara Phillips wore to Ascot this year. Philip Treacy can be 設立する at 69 Elizabeth Street, London SW1 (020 7824 8787
