Yeah, the tie could do with basically being the same colour as the sash. Potentially some big primark trip needs to be embarked upon to see what we can get.

I know this isn't the tie we'll be using but it's made me realise we need to make sure the tie we buy doesn't clash too much with the sash colour!

It has a full size collar so a tie fits and the whole thing tucks into our skirts ok. I'll bring the shirt on Thursday for people to see. It isn't massively long but seems ok, potentially pinning each side to the skirt would allow arm movement while preventing it from coming up out the top. I bought this from Primark and it won't have cost much. It was ages ago, but hopefully we could find something similar if people thought it would do. The shirts in the more floaty material don't work because the collars are generally too small and I suspect are so light weight you'd struggle to keep them in the skirts and pinning them would tear them apart.
