Another wedding guest one I'm afraid! Dress with sleeves?

I'm off to a posh wedding soon. I've just been dumped so I'm going alone and feeling a bit vulnerable so naturally want to look my best!

I'm 5ft2 so anything too long drowns me, have quite wide hips, and chubby arms. Decent boobs though. Size 10/12

Has anyone seen a dress that might suit me? I'd really like one with sleeves because having my arms on show makes me feel really unattractive.

Thank you :)

Hi OP,
Full length, half or 3/4 length sleeves?

Thanks everyone. Some really nice dresses but I don't think any of them are 'the one'. I'm not sure what I'm looking for really but if anyone has any more suggestions I'd be really grateful.

I have just found this website and can't wait till I have a wedding to go to next year so that I can wear one of their dresses. I know this isn't what you were asking for but they have a really good range, I bet you can find something in there www.yesstyle.co.uk/en/lilygirl-floral-print-midi-a-line-dress/info.html/pid.1050351337

I was looking at a website today called The pretty dress company which had some lovely occasion dresses on it.
Chi Chi London is worth a look too
I am also looking for a dress for a wedding in two weeks time .
It's so hard to get something that feels perfect .
