Help find me a dress please!

DH casually dropped into conversation today that we have a dinner event to go to next Friday for his work that requires a floor length dress. Haven't had to wear one of those for a while; the wardrobe is bare. Bugger. Help please, stylish ladies?

I'm 5'6", shoes aren't a problem as I have many so will sort something. I'm a 12 (closer to 10 on top); self defined problem area is my tummy as I've lost a lot of weight (about 9 stone) so have a little bit of skin pouch that just won't shift that shows if it is too clingy. Happy with arms out; shoulders will need covering but I'll put on a pashmina until I abandon it on a chair. I just want to look classy. I'm open to most colours, preferably not black as that's what everyone will be in. I love bold colours; red, emerald, chartreuse (I'd love chartreuse). Budget up to about £150 but could be flexible if I fall in love with one.

Thank you!

Shameless desperate bump...

NINE STONE?

I know this is waaay over budget, but I'd get it if I'd lost NINE STONE.

Will look for something cheaper.

Ah, I have other treats as my reward (wedding dress being the main one!).

I'm getting myself to Mango. Thank you - the first lace one looks perfect as long as it doesn't cling too much, I'm going to hunt it down after work tomorrow!
