ok :), probably too much for shipping to Europe then, just wondering as you posted a site from where I live so.... Good luck selling!!

I`d be happy to check it out for you (just returned from Europe :), the Netherlands is often cheaper than other European countries... but you are probably right, I assume it would still be $20+

Take care!

From Canada I think the lowest cost option is going to be around $15 and since it's originally from here it's probably cheaper to just buy it here :D

You are right about that! Not to mention, if it doesn't fit, you can just return it. It is really beautiful, if you are considering buying it from the website :)

I definitely will when I get more in my budget for new clothes.

For future reference when you buy overseas, the 8 is a UK size and it's UK size 2 which is at the top of the PUG XS range. You usually want a 10 or standard UK S (US 4) or a 12 (US 6) and UK 14 is actually the 8. They also have 6 and 4 and the 6 is like a 0 in the U.S. and the 4 is like a 00. It seems weird to have to go up so many sizes at first but I find they're a lot more standardized with clothing so most stuff fits way better once you figure out your size.

For euro stuff, if you want a size small then you have to go with a 36, if you want an XS then you go with a 34, although they have the same sizing issues we do where everything changes from brand to brand so you do have to be careful in that respect as well.

Good luck selling as it's a very lovely dress!

Thanks very much for this reply! It is super informative about sizing :) I have spent a fair amount of time in England, so was aware that it was an 8, but this particular dress was smaller around the ribcage/ back area than other UK 8s in my closet.

Thanks for the info about the European sizes, I didn't know how to compare that way!

Shipping?

It would depend on where you are- I can just go to the post office and find out what it would cost to ship to you, then let you know. The final cost would be the price of the item/items+ shipping. I live in Canada :)

Is the Micheline dress still for sale? And if so, what's shipping to the US, post code 17019?

Hi Khara,

Sorry for the long response time, I was out of the country. Yes it is still for sale :)

At the post office they say it would be about $20, but sometimes when I send things to the states it is less- I would charge, this way there it would be impossible for you to be overcharged.

So the total would be $50 for the dress (with shipping). Would you still like to purchase it?

Cheers,
