wedding outfit query will i look a right tool if

[chibi]

...i wear a maxi dress or a jumpsuit? i have been invited to the evening do only.

is this too casual?

how about this jumpsuit

i am 5'7, in reasonable shape, size 12-14 depending on bloat levels

i really don't want to get my legs out but i will if i must

I like the maxi dress but not the jumpsuit. Looks like the maxi has great reviews too.

Love the dress and it looks totally suitable for the evening do. The jumpsuit, not so much (never been a jumpsuit person), it looks a bit more suitable for a club night or something.

oh and i am 37 years of solid gold old. i want to look sophisticated and marlene dietrichy older lady not mrs dowdy or madam frumpy, and i want something i could maybe wear again maybe.

perhaps.

re: maxi even though it is jersey, this is still what my mother would say 'snazzy' enough do you think?

i secretly want to be the kind of woman who looks shithot in a jumpsuit but i think my bum might let me down

I prefer the dress, but I think both are appropriate for a wedding evening do.

I think the jumpsuit would be better in taupe, with some gold heels/jewellery.

The maxi looks a bit mumsy.

lol at the post the jumpsuit is in

WATCH for camel toe in jumpsuit
or an errant arse.

walk about with a blunt friend ? looking at it

The jumpsuit needs serious shoes and bling to snazz it up ...but overral lit is far nicer than the maxi dress.

I like the maxi. I'm not a person who likes jumpsuits, so my opinion would be no, but that might be my bias agains jumpsuits rather than specific for any occasion.

i think the era of the maxi dress has gone and tbh they only looked nice on a sizw 10

everyone else looks like a ship in full sail - often with fat hammy arms

yay!!! i already have oxblood patent heels so high they do voodoo, will this work, or do i need strappy lil sandals?

what kind of bling? i have some gold and sparkly bangles/cuffs i can nick back from my 5 y o

i was deffo leaning toward the jumpsuit, surely not too much for a junoesque woman of my girth

the maxi is sold out in my size(es). so fate has spoken.

Think the maxi dress is nice but a bit casual. You could really dress the jumpsuit up and make it look quite cool and sexy. Just make sure the cut of it looks good on you

Think strappy high sandals and loads of gold jewellery would look good

I think both can be dressed up with either shiny chunky black or gold jewellery and some nice shoes - I have another version of the jumpsuit and people always say how nice it looks.

I think the dress is fine with sandals & a denim jacket for day wear but not for a wedding, especially evening. I love the jumpsuit and agree that it'll look good. Heels and gold bling. I have some black leather strappy wedges I wear with my jumpsuits as they're comfy and really elongate my legs.

I love the jumpsuit - it's so cool and it will be different to all of the other outfits there. Go and have some fun with it!

Both gorgeous and could be dressed up - jumpsuit probably easier to bling up plus looks properly 'fashion'. I would wear with patent beige heels, a big blingy cuff and lots of eye make up
