Tie Neck Dresses Look Terrific, from Leona Edminston, Australian, post number 623 dress with Angela Lansbury

My new friend Delponi at Central London Wine Society meeting, wearing this stunning, eye=catching tie neck dress.


The Dress

The eye-catching feature is the neckline.

The Neckline

The style is called tie neck. This version has long ribbons.

The Colour

The  ribbons are red. The red ties continue around the red edge of the ellipse shape neckline.

The Neckline Shape

What is the shape? It is not a keyhole. Not a scoop. Not a u-shape. 

I call it an ellipse. An ellipse is a sub catergory of oval. (An egg shape is larger at one end. It is oval but not an ellipse.)


The fabric has a black background with tiny ballerinas in red, white and blue. The sleeves are long. The dress is long.

Where could I buy something similar? 

Wikihow and you tube have tutorials, still and animated, showing how to sew a keyhole neckline, which is usually tear drop shape.

This dress was from Leona Edmiston, an Australian designer.
On her website in October 2025 I found lots of dresses, worn by tall slim models. One of the sale pages ofered two dress for a total of 200 dollars, 100 each. 

Designs included lots of nice necklines, lots of prints. Date night dresses. 

Fancy Hemlines
I liked the dress design with wave top bands around the hem. 

Godets
Another attractive hemline design was contrasting godets of pink long triangles in a black fitted dress with a swing skirt. The website calls it fit and flare. Fitted above the waist. Flared skirt. 
(Godets are inset hemline trianagles of contrasting colour fabric with points at the top).

Some activewear, unusually tight trousers in flower prints in two piece outfits.

I checked the company's current website. There's nothing like it. I did an image search im image google search, but found nothing similar. 
The words tie-neck found me a blue dress which I shall show you in another post. I am now a fan of tie neck dresses. And my stylish friend.

Indigo Moon Brown & Green Jacket Paired with green Indigo Moon skirt outfit number 487

  Indigo Moon brown jacket paired with Indigo Moon green skirt.  Skirt. Photo taken and cropped by Angela Lansbury. Copyright. I bought these two items from the same label separately and paired them up. I found many Indigo Moon jackets and tops on ebay. Many from the UK, several from the USA.  Bold Bids For Several Skirts I had two Indigo Moon jackets and I wanted skirts to match. I saw three skirts, two red, one green. I hoped to win one of them. As the bidding for all ended the same day, I had no chance of waiting for the bidding on one to end before bidding on a second if I failed to secure the first. The green skirt arrived with two red skirts, same label. I had bid on all three which had low prices. I was pleasantly surprised, pleased to win all three. The price of all three together wasn't so bad. However, add in the postage on three items, the sum was no longer small. Pleasing Postage Refund I did not realise until all three arrived in the same packet that they wer...

Survival Clothes and Kits For Holidays, Home & Away post 510

I read in the news today that the French have issued instructions on preparing a survival kit for householders.  Convenient Carry Bag Your house should have a bag you can carry, or sling in a car. Your handbag or tote bag or holdall should have a few essentials. When hiking I wear clothes with pockets and have a rucksack with have pockets water, food and sting relief, and insect repallent, and maps and phone numbers. I also put the hospital nubers in my phone. Survival Kit Everybody should have a survival kit by their door, as well as a first aid box in the bathroom and a burns kit in the kitchen. Also clothes! Japanese The Japanese are reputed to keep survival kit by the door. Why? In case of earthquakes. Travellers should have a first aid kit. In their suitcase or bag. And in cars. Plus spare clothes. For sitting on wet or dirty ground. Medical Help Many buildings have a defibrilator. Do you have a scarf which would act as an emergency sling? After a car accident, I had broken m...

Marks & Spencer coat reversed Post 409

  Angela Lansbury wearing a black Marks & Spencer coat reversed. Photo by Trevor Sharot. The magenta lining was such a pretty colour that I preferred it to the black outside. If a coat has a label at the neck which shows, or one on the side seam, you could either cut it off or cover it with black ribbon sewn on. Some people, such as the royal family, are reputed to always include a funeral outfit in their packing in case it is needed. (I always pack a swimsuit, so as not to miss out, and an evening outfit, in case I get invited to a party or wedding or smart restaurant for dinner.) An alternative is to have a reversible coat or jacket. Useful Websites https://www.marksandspencer.com/ Please share links to your favourite posts.
