I am a size 14-16 (desperately trying to lose weight, but the top end of a size 14 is probably as good as it will get by the time of the wedding). Wedding is at the start of August, in a hilltop town in Northern Italy (so there might be a breeze? ). Hourglass on a good day, spherical on a bad day. I dislike my arms immensely but I have perfected the art of putting on a wrap/cardigan and just accepting that I will be hot.
The bride is a colleague of DP (but we are going as friends rather than "invite all the office" friends). I have never met either one of the couple. I am expecting the ceremony to be quite long, and the other guests to be gorgeous and cope well with the heat).
I have this dress already for a wedding in England. But I feel like it is a bit too English for the glamour fest I have created in my head. Happy to spend up to £100 ish, but I don't want anything too awkward to pack because we are turning the wedding into our holiday and want space in my suitcase for other clothes. Hobbs dresses are generally cut well for me, but inexplicably Phase Eight never, ever fits. Please help!
