Have you tried www.nordstrom.com and www.talbots.com? Oh, and have a glass of wine while you shop. It always improves the experience.
I own stock in Talbots. They know my plastic's number by heart. I have all the catalogs. I haven't tried Nordstroms yet. I get all their catalogs, too, and haven't seen anything I'm willing to pay the postage for to look it over.
But you know, that dark velvet is very much like what I planned to have a dressmaker construct for me, only in cobalt blue. I saw the one you've posted in the Talbot's catalog.
I love shopping for other folks.
