Maxi dress with sleeves

[OhHolyFuck]

Have to go with ex-DP to take DSs to his sisters wedding this summer and need a nice dress, already not sure about a long weekend with Ex and then being around his bitch of a sister

I'm fat (size 22) and boobs are best feature so a good v-neck would be best, want sleeves as its peak summer but need to hide fat arms, don't want to be faffing with cardigan/shrug etc

I'm pale with reddy/brown hair so not white, like florals/greens/blues

Anyone help?!

Bargain

[OhHolyFuck]

tethers that black one is a great shape (and exactly what I'd buy!) but I'm not allowed black....

[tethersend]

I have seen that Biba one, MrsL- but it's not doing it for me... I live in hope of finding one similar to one of the original Biba maxis.

[OhHolyFuck]

That green biba dress is beautiful- reckon I could sew a 10 and 12 together?!

Ha, Mrs Lettuce has linked to it too. I need a wedding to go to so I can buy this dress!!

black

Biba Dress was linked on another thread... Over budget but very fabulous!

[MrsLettuce]

FrownsAndDimples this is a thing of beauty only up to a 16 though. Am guessing you've seen it already Tethers? Right up your street.

But thanks to this thread I have just ordered the green asos one :)

Every year this is a hunt go on. A maxi with sleeves. I found the very (the catalogue people) stock a few.

[MrsLettuce]

Blimey. I'll get me coat.

Goodness, yes, am rather dozy it seems.

[[http://shop.mango.com/GB/p0/plussize/clothing/shirts/blouses/floral-print-blouse/?id=61070262_57&n=]] I meant. Was meaning the pale trews but the navy are very nice too They're silky so not workwear, no.

This is supposed to be very flattering. I wanted it in navy but they are sold out in my size.

[tethersend]

How do you feel about showing legs?

[OhHolyFuck]

I like both the blue and green tethersend definitely those kind of lines I think

[OhHolyFuck]

Both links are the palazzo trousers? They're ok but look a bit like workwear to me?

[tethersend]

green

[tethersend]

red

[tethersend]

blue

[MrsLettuce]

Oh, sorry! better? Or you can C&P: shop.mango.com/GB/p0/plussize/clothing/trousers/straight/flowy-palazzo-trousers/?id=63067569_56&n=1

[OhHolyFuck]

That first link just takes me to the mango homepage mrs?

[MrsLettuce]

I'm assuming you've looked at all the dresses in asos? They have quite a few options. Still think something with trouseryness would look better though - less like you're hiding.

[MrsLettuce]

We'll get you sorted!

Would you consider say, this over these?

[OhHolyFuck]

Thanks mrs I know it's a tall order, I'm essentially looking for something to cover all flab appropriately (especially big belly and c-section overhang) whilst trying to look vaguely 'nice' especially next to his size 6 sister
