Please help me find a wedding dress

DaftSkunk · 07/09/2014 18:23

I'm getting married next month, it's going to be very low key but I'm really struggling to find a dress I like. I don't want anything weddingy, just a nice dress. I'm size 14-16 but trying to lose weight. Budget is £150 for dress and shoes. Ideally something skimming to hide my hideous stomach.

Can anyone help me please?

Right, well this is a bit of a stab in the dark, but what about something like this? I have quite a similar dress and it is so flattering. The fabric skims and the gathering conceals. It comes in a few other prints.

Thank you. I really don't want anything that looks bridal, just a nice dress that I like.

No. It looks cheap and the solid top would. It be flattering.

Sorry.

WipsGlitter · 08/09/2014 21:12

Would not be flattering.

TheresLotsOfFarmyardAnimals · 08/09/2014 21:25

I think this would be super flattering www.houseoffraser.co.uk/Eliza+J+3/4+sleeve+ruched+waist+dress/193958594,default,pd.html
