I've got DHs Xmas do next month, it's a black tie dinner and disco type thing.

I've been around the shops, scooted online and feel they're either too young / tarty for me or too old - fashioned. I'm having difficulty finding one I even like.

I'm 34, 5ft1 and a size 10, smallish boobs, with a bit of a tummy now so don't want anything that draws attention to that. I'm also not really a 'dress girl', so if I do find one that's simple but 'dressey', I'll be chuffed. I really don't suit the v-necks around at the moment, I just don't have the bust. Petite dresses do fit me best, but I haven't found one anywhere really.

Any help or suggestions would be appreciated! Thanks

OP re the tummy, I am same age as you (though a little bit taller and 12-14 not a 10 Envy)
and have same problem but CONTROL PANTS ARE YOUR FRIEND.

I like Spanx the best though obv usual MNHQ disclaimers about other brands being available apply.
HTH and happy shopping
