Bumping this.
Someone needs to buy the Bettie Page red and grey dress. I have this dress! Ever time I've worn it, I've gotten a lot of wonderful compliments. A guy even asked me did I make the dress myself. And a friend of mind could not resist taking pictures of me walking or standing. She said the way I was standing/walking looked like I could be on the run way. Modeling the Red and grey dress. Yep, so worth it.
It did come with a cute little red belt. When ever I wear the dress I always wear the Bettie Page dress beltless.

Thanks, MissNathalie! This dress actually just sold on Ebay yesterday (for a pittance, might I add). She has yet to pay though, so it could be back up for sale if things don't work out. I wish so badly that it fit - it was purchased for me as a gift and just wasn't going to work.
