Christmas party need a dress

This years christmas do is at the Hilton and I need a nice dress.
I'm plus size and am struggling to find something nice. Don't want to go in full evening dress although I know some are. I'm looking for something just above the knee and not too tight.
Any ideas for the best place to look?

Don't know but wish I did! I have the same problem

I've just been looking on eBay. Don't know why I didn't think of looking on there sooner, found some lovely dresses. Will link tomorrow (am rubbish doing it from phone)

When you say plus size, not sure what size you mean, but how about this?

I've just bought this and it's lovely. I'm not a plus size, but the way it's designed, with the ruching and trim down the front does kind of cover all manner of ills, IYSWIM!

That's lovely BIWI. I'm a size 18. Quite tall

Ok I'm fat. Does that help? Smile

That dress is lovely. I look like a sack of glamorous spuds in it though

Lol come.
There really are some nice ones on eBay. I've just bid for a nice red flare dress.
I normally hate buying from internet in case things don't fit or look silly on.
