What's your budget? Any specific colours to avoid?

Depends on how much sparkle you fancy! I have just ordered this which I think could be forgiving round the tummy as not clingy. V sparkly though!! There is a 25% discount for Warehouse, plus free delivery so not too expensive.

Not sure of your taste but www.thewhitecompany.com have some dresses at the mo with 20% off- I have bought a couple but rejected those that looked like I had a bump- but they might work for you- most are merino wool or viscose but there is a hammered silk one.

The frill hem dress in black is quite nice but might not be smart enough for a xmas do.

Lots here with very flattering gathers across the tummy. Either horizontal drapey gathers or vertical ones from just under the bust - either would be perfect disguise.

my budget is #100. I would lkike to go for a bright colour for a chnage instead of black. I have seen a lovely dress in warehouse, bright yellow shift daisy dress for #100. But dont think its dressy enough! Shift dresses work for me better as they just skim over the belly.
