cheap Gorgeous dress for sisters hen night

9 replies

I really need a cheap amazing dress for my sisters hen night. I'm a size 14 with skinny arms and legs but big boobs. I'm very self conscious about my tummy but will wear something fitted if the dress allows me to wear my spanks. Hen do is a meal and dancing in a posh hotel. Already had to pay for flights home, hotel and activities so really need a bargain!

I just bought a new dress from Matalan for £18. It is chiffon, white with a feather pattern on it. It has a belt around the tummy although I sort of wore it so that was at my rib cage just under my boobs to give me a better shape. Everyone thought it was gorgeous and asked if it was from Coast!

I can't find the exact one on the website, it is here in a different colour. I think it is far nicer in real life! I'm a size 12 and 5'3 btw.

Ps - have fun! It sounds great!

Some lovely dresses. I'm not sure whether I suit the higher neck stuff with big boobs and broad shoulders, I usually opt for v necks.. think half the problem is that most people going are in their early 20's, childless, fashionable with disposable income and size 10 or less- all the things I'm not! Think I'm holding out on finding a miracle dress!

Drapey, tum disguising and boob flaunting? With spanx and stilettos? Gorgeous! with chunky silver jewellery and strappy heels. I really like the green one!

I'm so unsure, I don't tend to get dressed up these days and no longer know what suits me!

I prefer the blue patterned one to the purple, but tbh it's the sort of thing I would wear shopping, rather than for going out... Lovely dress though! Would have to be with This sort of shoe, a clutch and big smokey eyes if you were wearing it for going out i think.
