I'm looking for a dress for a very rare night out. It's been so long that I dressed up I just don't know what suits me any more. I'm short (5ft 1) size 8, long brown hair, blue eyes and pale skinned. I have a bit of a tummy and lack a waist since dc3 so looking for dresses that disguise this area. I quite like the look of the following but would love to hear others' opinions, thanks.

simple black FC dress

strapless pale peach FC dress

gold sparkle FC dress

Black sequin v-neck FC dress I have found this cheaper on asos

Alice Yim Tri Layer Dress

I also love these, but am put off as although they ship to the UK returning anything would be a nightmare;

allegro

tracery I think this is my favourite.

vivacity

If anyone finds anything similar please let me know!

think the ones in your second post are a bit wedding-y. i really like the sequin v-neck fc dress, but very fancy (and expensive), so would really depend on the night out. i think the alice dress could be pretty nice, and also with enough edge to be cool.

I also like the tracery one. Lovely. But don't go by me, sometimes I get it arse-ways.
And now I'm singing AWimbaWay AWimbaWay........

Have a good night!

this is lovely.

Thanks for replies. It's actually for a ball, so fancy is fine. That one is nice FauxFox, and a good price too, not sure the colour would suit my blue pale skin though.
