Oh please don't wear a maxi dress. Fat women and maxi dresses just don't go. And I speak as a chub.

this in rhe aqua with a lovely jacket or wrap would be marginallly better.

What's her budget?

Report
MrsLettuce · 14/06/2013 22:53

this with this and red shoes would be good.

and of course control pants would help her feel more 'secure' in the tummy department

this?

TBH, if you have such a specific style and range of shades in mind for her and a tight budget it'd probably be best to have something made to order. A lot of brands seem to stop at a 28 so there's not much choice and the nice stuff in larger sizes will tend to sell out sharpish - a seamstress could make her something to your/her exact specifications that will fit perfectly.

Another option would be to order from the states but then there's import duty and extreme faff with exchanges.

this and this or this in aqua orthis in navy?

I really do think the navy / gold lace dress form before has potential and is probably less dark IRL than in the photo.

One last try then - how about this, this or this in blues and silvers? The dresses are made to order and they'd almost certainly be able to add long(er) sleeves to the last too. The design your own dress service might be a good fall back if you know exactly what she wants but can't find it. They will send out fabric swatches.
