Help needed to find black and white dress!

[SaucerfulofSecrets]

As my creatively named thread title suggests, I need a black and white dress for my upcoming graduation; needs to be white on the top and black on the bottom. I could wear a skirt/blouse combo but I have a stubby disproportionately small torso so I think it looks strange.

Suggestions very welcome...I'm 5' 1.5" and a size 6-8. Thank you!

Could you get away with something like THIS?
BARGAIN!
very cute
sophisticated?

I'm having trouble with links but coast have three dresses that might suit....Tatum, Rosa and Milla Mono.

Thanks everyone for your links...I really love the Karen Millen and Coast Rosa dresses! I will try to find one in store to try on...I have found the KM sizings a bit strange in the past

yeah you cant go wrong with Coast for more formal dresses. good luck and have a fab time x

Well I have managed to reserve the last Karen Millen dress that you linked to from House of Fraser hells the only one left in the country it would seem! I will try it tomorrow when it arrives and let you know how I get on

I may be talking to myself at this stage but I bought the Karen Millen dress...it's beautiful. So thanks for the help!

Its gorgeous. Condrats on graduating.
