Need a work outfit for a client dinner?

[minibmw2010]

Hello all, I've been worked from home as a Legal PA for the last 3 years, don't really have any work clothes anymore as I'm a size 14/16 (and all my previous work clothes are a 12). We have a client dinner in London that I need to attend (for some of it), in a lovely restaurant in London (private dining room with 25 firm heads).

I need something to wear ??? I'm a 36DD, good waist, but v podgy tummy , decent legs. Can anyone find me a dress of some kind ??? What style would you wear ??!?? Help me please .....

i am a similar size OP and do occasional work events like this - not law but corporate.
whats your budget?
i have a few contenders from my own wardrobe - but i am not an expert!
also whats your colouring do you wear brights or neutral etc?

teal
spotty
blue

Some of the Mango dresses are pretty unbeatable, IMO, like this one: shop.mango.com/GB/p0/women/clothing/dresses/draped-side-fitted-dress/?id=23040122_02&n=1&s=prendas.vestidosprendas&ident=0__0_1407534405198&ts=1407534405198. Add great heels and a necklace or earrings and clutch, and you are done.

Boden boring?

Thank you! I love the 2 v neck Coast dresses and the green Boden is lovely. This is a very conservative crowd so I will need to think office but also want to be pretty so I can hopefully wear again sometime.

Am 5ft4, brown hair (quite red tint), budge about £80 max.

This is lovely, a great bargain and could be dressed up or down...

Yeah, that MP dress si very good. Bet it;s ever so flattering.

Oops I have ordered the Mary Portas one ! I keep wondering what they are like in real life - so at that price I thought it was worth a try. Thanks Tethers.
