Have decided I would like a fabby black dress for the party season, that I can accessorize/ wear with different heels etc.

Have looked at loads but can't seem to fi d anything even half way decent.

Am curvy 12.

Good d chest so like to make the most of this

Chunky thighs so not too short.

Suit more fitted styles rather than floaty that seem to be popular at the moment... Don't want to look like a sack of potatoes Hmm

Any suggestions would be most appreciated .

Tia

I am 5.5 and it sits a bit above the knee. I wear it with tan shoes and it makes my legs look much slimmer than they are.

Oh damn, probably too short for me. The shortest I can do is the very top of knee. I like it though. i wonder if there is anything around like that but a tiny bit longer.

OP did you find something you like?

geordie - I brough a dress from french connection a couple of years ago which is exactly as you discribe and I love it - I use it for loads of occasions and dress it up with heals, bag, cardi etc.

it is this dress and I would totally recommend it. Not sure what size you are so just linked to the 1st one I found on Ebay.
