Looking for a larger bridesmaid dress

[GoldiChops]

My Dsis is getting married soon. I need a bridesmaid dress- I'm sorting it out myself, to help financially and because we live so far apart and won't see each other till the wedding. Trouble is, I'm big, and I'm struggling to find anything.

I'm 5'2, size 20-24 depending on the shop. Top-heavy, and I have to hide my arms to the elbow. that could be a dress with sleeves or a wee cardi. Boobs mean strapless is out, even under a cardigan, I can't find a strapless bra to fit!

Any ideas? Monsoon has nothing. Budget is flexible, maybe up to £250 for everything, more if it's something I could wear again! Any help gratefully received.

What colour and length?

Would something like this work?

How about getting something made for you?

Bhs usually have a good range or debut at debenhams.

Have a look at Alfred Angelo dresses, can't link from my phone, but they have a range of dresses in larger styles.

Curvety do fab dresses for the larger lady, any of them any good?

When is the wedding, i had my bridesmaids dresses custom made from a seller on ebay.

Beautiful dresses £35 each, 3 weeks delivered

This is lovely from M&S, and pretty cheap too!

In fact, there are loads of dresses from M&S which could be glammed up and look amazing! Have linked here to all in your size as I'm not sure what colour you're looking for :)

Have a look at igigi.com and kiyonna.com. Both are American plus size sites.

Thanks so much for all the links and ideas! I'll take a good look.

Length- I usually go for just below the knee, due to stubby legs. I can't get away with a long dress!

Colour- Well to complicate things, I've had a chat with DSis today and she says other bridesmaid, middle sister, can't afford a new dress so will be wearing a pink dress she already has so I guess I have to do pink! I've offered to buy hers as well but she's... difficult and a bit offended. I was looking at navy, that was the original colour, but now I have to change tack!

Oooh, I'm looking at all the ones you've all linked.... nice! Wedding is beginning of October so I need to get me skates on!
