I'm on a desperate hunt for a dress for a hen do this weekend (I've left it too late!)

Everything is bloody high / round neck... which make my massive boobs look like smuggled cushions!

If you're short and dumpy - where are you buying your v neck dresses from please?

I've found H&M and Nobody's Child best this year.

I am shortish and dumpy too, but I still go for round or square neck.
m&S has been my saviour this year!!
be careful if buying anything sale online from them though as they aren’t arriving next day.

Vinted is where I'm getting most of mine.

If you're looking for a floaty summer dress Hope & Ivy are good as are Tiger Lily.

837 on M&S website - by far the highest number of any type of neckline. Happy hunting!

I could have written this! I think there is a mission these past few years to make women look as unattractive and as Little House on the Prairie as possible.
I think the high street hates us.

I’m buying round necks and altering them, with the help of a relative who’s far more experienced in dressmaking! Not particularly practical at short notice though, I share your frustration!

Apricot often have v neck dresses, some New Look stores stock them.

John lewis lets you search by neckline....very handy.

I’m the same and struggle to find clothes that I like. I tend to Google v neck dress and see what comes up. I don’t really suit dresses but get tops from Roman, Matalan, Dorothy Perkins. It depends on your budget really. I would also search on Debenhams website and you’ll get results from different designers and price ranges. Sometimes they have free next day delivery. Hope this helps ☺️
