What to Wear!

[gerroa]

Yes, perhaps we could add new section to the forum called 'Fashions in the Ring' and have a contest to post photos of the wackiest show outfits you see at a show. I've seen some guys with really nice electric blue suits around the place. Of course we'd have to blur out the faces like they do on the news with criminals.

O.K....what ya think of this Red number

[Jurate]

I think it looks nicely

[fialCo]

Heidi, I also wouldn't wear a dress! nor a long wide skirt:) But this skirt is ok!

But color, in my opinion, is too eee dark? sharp?
Just no offense, but this color makes your face look more red, not natural:) If you'd wear this outside, I think you would look just great:) But inside, with artificial lights, this color is too sharp.
As you have blond hair, I would recommend other colors:)

this one is also too sharp, but looks nice:)

this one has a long skirt, but I like the color:)

It's just my opinion, do not accept it word by word!
I myself always prefer dark colors, 'cause they make me look thinner:) Next time, when the show is inside, I probably would wear high-heel shoes ( I feel comfortable with them!) because they suite better to all those suits:)

[fialCo]

a. P. S.
if you'd wear that. I would look at you, not your dog:)))) Really.

What's an op shop?

BTW, I think you look great in your outfit. I think as long as you are comfortable (know you can manoeuvre in what you are wearing) and it's fairly smart then I wouldn't worry about it too much.

Personally I try and avoid bright colours because of my colouring (I'm a red head). Grey is certainly avoidable unless you ever show a dog with a broken topline, and then it can work wonders

Daniela An OP shop is a second hand clothing or furniture shop with cheap gear in it

fialCo Thankyou for ur honesty I have no choice but to red the outfit to our first show as its only tomorrow & can't get another one by than but I take ur comments on board.
Just a question though:

Why not wear a long wide skirt?
Cheers

Heidi

I would never wear high-heel shoes in a ring it is not comfortable and you can not run normally and if you can't run fast you can't show a dog, well in FialCo case Brera is still only 4 month old pup,but just wait until she grows up.
Once I have seen one woman showing Scottish shepherd and she was wearing high-heel shoes, when she was running in the ring she looked just ugly everything was shaking she couldn't run in a long strides and the dog couldn't normally run near by.
This is my experience and I would never want to look like that woman did.

[fialCo]

Well, it depends. Speaking about long wide skirt, you just gonna mess up in it! When running with a dog near, the skirt could round your legs or smth:)
And speaking about high heel shoes, my heels are only 4-6cm height:) So...I juts think I look better with them, than with sneakers:)
And finally, Heidi, I am absolutely sure, you will look just perfect with your suit and dog!
Good luck to you:)

nice outfit but makes your dog look very dark in colour, I have a similar problem.

[daniela]

Routing around second hand shops is one of my favourite past times! I just love finding vintage bits and pieces.

[tasha]

me too, one of my best mates is a vintage fanatic so holds parties where you have to come in authentic gear.. any excuse to wear something yummy I mean you can't wear a 1920's flapper dress to just any old party now can you :-)
