Another pleading thread - plump,40 something needs HELP for a wedding

[gomez]

Can I wear this frock

With the purple heels on the same page?

5' 2" size 14 large of nork and arse. Tummy and legs knee down okay.

Country house wedding. Is the black okay?

I see no reason why not. Gorg dress, but then I am not one to fuss about black at a wedding.

I love it! But not the price...

(Glossing over the price) Pleased to hear you likey. Not too frumpy?

It's a lovely dress but the price is obscene and I am large of nork too and tbh I don't think that neckline and cap sleeves would do us any favours.

That dress is lovely - not frumpy at all.

I think it is classy, will look great with the shoes (and bag if u can stretch that far), where does the hem come to? If it is to long can u get someone to take it up so it is on the knee?

What about this again some black

And no sleeves?

The first one is gorgeous, less keen on the coast one .

Good idea to get altered up to make sure a good length. Not so keen on the wee bag- I prefer bigger bags.

Mmm I usually like slash/boat necks think they help with my broad shoulders. Am I mistaken? . Norks not enormous 34E, just large.

Aye I'm less keen on Coast one too. Just surfing for other ideas.

1st dress - lovely but not sure the top part will be flattering to your shape
2nd dress - I like a lot but would you be better in something with more of a drapey/v shaped neckline?

Ah two no's on the gawjuss Hobbs one.

So any ideas then? Budget can be generous. Online best as live in sticks although may find time next week when in a City.

What about Pepperberry - if you need to order online maybe more chance it would fit with big norks. in similar vein
pretty and would cover arse well
really cheap!

Oh like the first pepper berry one but it looks itchy.

I'm ginger and pink so number 2 no good.

Number three okay but not special.

[fussy]

what about this - would be nice with your colouring another hobbs one not too sure about high neck though

or another teal one

Like the Hobbs but prefer the original Hobbs one.

Not so keen on the Kaliko one for a wedding, but is a nice frock.

What about this bling

dramatic. Too much for a wedding maybe?

Lurvely.

Oh. My. Goodness. That Reis dress is a beauty! How about these with it?

Meant the other colour shoes, sorry, you need to click the swatch , also faild to link to bag candidate #1...

Hobbs dress is perfect for a wedding. Love that reiss one as well.

Ohhh fun.

I would stick to one colour.
couldn't see the last few as computer is being very slow !

Kate Spade v. nice.

Visa card twitching.

Will sleep on it.

Thanks for help and ideas. I'll let you know.

You've had lots of good advice ^. I'm about the same dimensions as you, and ime only v neck or draped necklines look good. Lucky you having good legs tho, I don't. Cankles anyone?
