I have a new baby (11 weeks) and a couple of extra stone to go with him, meaning none of my clothes fit! I'm going for dinner with a couple of friends in London in a week and desperate to look nice after feeling so frumpy for ages!
I'm breastfeeding, which complicates things so main thing is access to boobs - have a couple of wrap front maxi dresses from Fat Face which I'm constantly alternating. Although baby isn't coming to dinner, I want a dress I can wear day to day as well so bfing access is imperative.
I'm an hourglass with chubby upper arms and a bit of a saggy tummy atm. I have 36HH boobs which I'm struggling to fit in most clothes. Although the FF maxis are size 14, I think they're very generously sized and I'm more a 16-18.
I want knee-length as a minimum and need an A-line or flared skirt shape as anything close fitting will emphasise my protruding tummy.
Is there anything that fits this ridiculously specific criteria? I haven't found anything in the shops - but with a toddler and baby I've not had much time to look. Have sent back a couple of dresses I ordered online as they looked awful/didn't fit over my bust. Am desperate!
And if no dress can be found, I'd welcome suggestions of skirts and tops as well! I just want to look nice for once!

Can you suggest a dress with such specific requirements?
