That's it really. Working hard at losing weight but a very definite 18 and 5'10. Reasonable legs, sticking out belly, untoned arms. Don't suit swing skirts and skater dresses, a straight or very slightly a line is best. Anything else just unbalances me. Plain fabrics probably best as well. Oh, and ideally a v neck, not a round neck. Fat neck is not my friend.
Bought a couple of La Redoute shift dresses that are probably just polyester. They fit really nicely and just sort of hand over the bumps to smooth me out whilst not being restrictive. Problem is, they look so old fashioned and not in a cool, retro way.
Have a big day out next week and just see myself wearing a dress but dh hates these ones and I don't have anything else that fits the bill. Nothing on Asos looks right either.
Can you help at all with a v neck straight-ish shift dress with short (but not capped) sleeves? Hangs nicely and disguises the lumps and bumps? Wearable for an all day do?? Thank you!

Please help! I need a shift dress with short sleeves (not cap) that flows nicely over a biggish tummy. Size 18. La Redout purchase disappointingly old fashioned but feels so good!
