Hello, hoping somebody very wise and stylish can help me.
My boyfriend's offered to buy me a new summer dress before we go on holiday but I can't see any I like/that will be flattering.
I'm a nightmare to buy clothes for, I'm short (5"2) and there's a big disparity between my waist and bust - sometimes up to 4 dress sizes based on measurements. I need things to be either fitted to the waist or to be able to be belted in without the fabric bunching up loads.
And I'd like sleeves as they need to cover the bra straps/I'm fair and my shoulders are one of the worst areas for catching the sun if I'm not incredibly careful.
I'd like a summery fabric, cotton or a fine jersey but not bothered about print/colour - I'll wear pretty much anything!
All for about £50-75...I've spent ages looking and can't see anything, think it's impossible! (Plus I live in dresses so I'm sure if such a shop existed I'd have stumbled across it by now...). Anybody have any ideas/have a similar figure problem?
Thank you so much!
