Dress for party in UK after getting married abroad

[LittlePebble]

As it says above really, we're getting married in Italy and then having a party on our return. I don't want to wear my wedding dress as the party is in a bar. BUT I do want a fabulous dress as I am the bride.
I'm 5'3" and curvy but not overweight. Any suggestions for a dress to wow everyone in gratefully received. :-)

Not sure what your budget is but I always feel great in VW www.viviennewestwood.co.uk/womenswear/dresses/boudicca-dress-13936

Gorgeous shape and colour and much, much cheaper! www.phase-eight.co.uk/fcp/product/warehouse/Dresses/Verity-Dress/201519695

Any good?

Sorry, just realised that Phase Eight now unavailable but worth checking them out anyway if that's the right budget as I have a similar shape to you and their dresses work well on me.

would second the Verity dress, is truly amazing for what it can do to your figure.

Love the verity dress (typical!) and the bibi halter neck or Karen Mullen brown one. Vivienne Westwood probably a bit OTT for Devon and not keen on the frills round the neckline on the silver one....
I like the idea of white but can't find anything that doesn't look either bridal or Ibiza.

pied a terre dress is sort of similar to the verity, very flattering, makes you feel quite wow, lots of colours, no white though

Ooh, I saw a chic, unweddingy white dress yesterday www.karenmillen.com/draped-front-jersey-dress/dresses/karenmillen/fcp-product/103DP31580

Thanks Horace, the last two are a bit too weddingy for me but I like the coast one (without black tights as you say)
Florence I really like that Karen Millen dress. I think I'm going to have to go try some dresses on. Definitely leaning towards the verity style dresses though (anyone finds one in a size 12 anywhere let me know!)

I do love the Verity one! Let us know what you end up with, Horace.

So back from wedding and have ordered this dress.
