Black and white ball when 6 months pregnant

Hi ladies.

I really hope you can help me. I am due to attend a friend's 50th when I am 6 months pregnant and a couple of Christmas dos when I will be 9 months(!) pregnant.

I was thinking of getting a dress that would work for all of these occassions.

I was thinking of getting this dress: Isabella Oliver. Its a bit expensive though, especially as it looks like I will need to pay to have it taken up.

Have you any ideas for other dresses?
And what accessories would you recommend for the black and white ball?

I was thinking I could perhaps go for something 50s style with either an oversized corsage or a fascinator or something similar. Would love some ideas or links.

I am 31 years old, size 12/14, 5'4" with big boobs and long dark hair, (oh and a lovely big bump!) if that helps.

Thanks loads in advance for your help.

Duke.

That's a beautiful IO dress Duke.

Many stores still have their summer sales on and the winter stock isn't online yet.

Hiya,

That dress is lovely - I have got two items from Isabella Oliver and I can't fault them, they are really nice. I got this one for a wedding (if you fancy something shorter) and it works really well (although creases quite a lot) - it's also in their sale! -

Nice dress

P.S. Also meant to say I am also 31, and around a size 12, wore the dress when I was 4 months pregnant but it will work well for any stage of pregnancy. And I'm a bit over 5'5".
