I need something that is
Not short not too long
Not jersey cotton
Not a wrap dress ( Isabelle Oliver )
Im looking for the perfect daydress and i dont know what I want but I know what I dont want
Sorry for lack of apostrophes
So...not thin straps as I've got big boobs
Suited to an 'hourglass' figure
Ok I'm a bit of a fatty
Something not too flouncy
If you can help I'd be very very grateful.
And not very tall
Something made of natural fibres

Pepper berry is interesting. Not sure what size curvy I am though. It's a good idea.

I ordered a tankini and it fitted perfectly. I ordered based on phone conversation with pepperberry customer services. I gave them my m&s sizing and they were able to tell me what would fit. I am a size 12 generally but some cuts I take a 14. A 36e bust.
