Posh frock for a pot belly - help!

[FlamingGallah]

Got a black tie do in a couple of weeks and have absolutely nothing suitable to wear. Courtesy of 3 c sections and a pathological love of cake, I have a horrible saggy tummy and could really do with losing a couple of stone. Realistically that's unlikely to happen in the next 2 weeks , can anyone recommend any nice evening dresses? My boobs are ok but everything else could probably do with being shrouded in mystery!

Thanks in advance

I think a bit of draping & control pants do wonders.
But wait for the experts..

To accentuate boobs and minimize belly something like

this shape?

Thank you ladies! If that Coast one had some cleavage rather than boat neck, that would be absolutely perfect! I will look at the Coast website

Thanks Jolly, that one's not really me, I'm short and curvy and think would drown a bit in that. But really grateful for the suggestions!

Do you want knee length then, like a cocktail dress?

so something this shape perhaps? I don't work for RI btw

Ooh I like both of those, thank you! Long or knee length is fine, but nothing shorter due to my footballers knees (I'm a real catch )

Might order both of those and try on at home. Keep 'em coming, it's all going on the credit card...

www.johnlewis.com/jigsaw-infinity-bead-flapper-dress-dark-navy/p863090. This is gorgeous but horribly expensive.

Knowing my luck I'd try that £300 one on and then get baby puke all over the shoulder

www.phase-eight.co.uk/fcp/product/phase-eightLatoya-Lace-Miracle-Dress/202371050. Not low cut but looks flattering?

Bah, River Island out of stock in my size. Not sure if it's coincidence or the Mumsnet effect! Guess I'll find out if I turn up and everyone else is wearing it

Phase eight has a dress similar to the first coast one with lower neck and full length. Can't think of the name though. Will head off to look it up.

Couldn't find the one I was thinking of but the Clarissa is lovely (and on sale). The Donna and the minueta are lovely too. Nicely cut with a bit of drapery frippery to hide anything you'd rather wasn't on show

Love the colour of the Clarissa one, another frock on the credit card! Going to have to make sure DH doesn't see bill until I've returned most of them...
