Anyone bored who fancies dressing me for a wedding, please

It's XP's brother's wedding. We recently split up very amicably. DS (2) is going and as XP is best man they won't let him sit with him or his gran (both on top table). So I will be going to accompany him.

It's quite a fancy wedding in a little country house.

I have a very hourglass figure. 34E boobs, small waist, size 12, big hips. My stomach is quite flat and my arms are fine. I'm 5'3".

Can't wear anything tight across the thighs as they're too muscular and make the dresses wrinkle.

I really don't suit black or khaki. Look best in bright blue but am open to other colours.

Max budget is around £150. Plus shoes, fascinator or hair clip.

Thank you!

Good to know Good, your wiggle dress is beautiful but all ones that are fitted like that wrinkle into a big crotch "vee" on me due to aforementioned muscular thighs.

I like this one from Else's attic. Anyone had one from there and know if they come up big/small?

Sorry to hijack OP.
GoodToesBadToes i love that dress - exactly what im looking for for an event. Are they true to size or do you need to go bigger/smaller?
Are they only available on ebay now? Thanks

Well I am a size 8 and the dress fits me great but also looks fab on my yoga teacher who's an extremely muscly 10. So they just sort of fit and sculpt and lift anyone and everyone. Combination of ruching and a clever cut. I bought mine new from house of Fraser, here it is
