Hi all,
I bow down in awe at the collective knowledge on this board and I'm hoping you may be able to help me.
I have a very formal black tie gala dinner to attend through work and it's creeping closer and I don't have a formal frock to wear.
I'm losing weight but still reckon I'll be a 16 or even an 18, given my rather abundant chest. I'm an hourglass shape and absolutely don't want to get my legs out so any frock needs to be midi or maxi-length, no plunging neckline though hint of is fine. Arms aren't great but will sacrifice having those out if I find the right frock.
I've fallen in love with some beauties on the Coast website, like this little corker, but I'm loathe to spend close to £200 on a frock that hopefully won't be worn again as I'll be too big for it, plus it appears to be sold out in 16s and 18s everywhere.
Any ideas of where to shop? What styles to try? I'm at a loss and definitely require help, and have just a handful of weeks until I go.
