Help me find perfect Xmas dress amongst the 90’s x 70’s dross!

I’ve had the worst year, loads of health problems, so I thought I’d cheer myself up by ordering a nice new Christmas dress, so I’ve got something to look forward to wearing during the hols, but I can’t find anything online.

What has happened to fashion this year?! It’s like all my 90’s x 70’s nightmares have somehow converged to birth a satiny, crop-topped, bell-sleeved, ethnic patterned Crustie from Brighton beach circa 1996.

I’d really like a beautiful fitted dress (14/16) in a dark or bold colour without floral / ethnic patterns / patches / buttons / logos all over it.

No horrid clingy satin, nylon, polyester🥴
No maxi dresses as I’m a short-arse.

Would be grateful for any shop suggestions? Or better yet links to dress ideas.
