I'm posting this on behalf of my mum who needs a wedding outfit in two weeks. She's stressing because she's overweight and thinks shes going to look awful whatever she wears. I have spent a while trawling the internet for her but not coming up with all her requirements.
Shes mid-50's, dresses fairly modernly. 18 on bottom, 16 on top. I would say a slight pear shape. She has a navy and grey smarter coat to wear so I'm thinking a navy dress of some kind. It has to be below knee. She will need a cardigan and shoes (low heel). The only dresses I can find are either too short or may end up making her look big round the middle by pulling in too tight at the waist. Oh, and she doesn't have a lot of money either.
It doesn't have to be a dress, I just thought it would be nicer and she would get wear out of it again. Less likely to wear a trouser suit again.
If anyone could find anything I would be most grateful!
