Vow renewal dress - I feel fat and frumpy

[TisTheSeasonToBeUnreasonable]

Hi all,

I'm having a vow renewal in Bali in May and although would ideally shift a few stone by then - I've decided first to try and find a dress that I feel happy in now - to avoid major disappointment should I not drop much -any- weight! I have seen this dress

m.lightinthebox.com/sheath-column-spaghetti-straps-chiffon-wedding-dress_p612401.html

and love it but doubt it will suit me so ideas for others greatly appreciated! I'm 5ft 5/6 and size 16/18 - have big boobs though, smallish waist considering and huuuuge hips lol

Help!

Oh - prob should say I don't mind long or shortish, pref neutral coloured and budget is up to £150 - no spaghetti straps as they get lost on my shoulders! X

what about this?

That's lovely! Potentially not defined enough in the waist - sometimes I can end up looking larger if shapes too straight if that makes sense?

Do you want full length?
this?

I think that dress is quite pretty - as long as it's made to measure so it has enough definition at the waist. I'm a similar shape - ridiculous hip:waist and boob:waist ratio...what about something fifties style, sweetheart neckline, fitted waist, fuller skirt?

very, very simple
slightly over budget but lovely
bargain

I know you wanted simple, but I love this!
