I need a dress I can order and have by weds at the latest ok now the hard part....
I'm 5.10 size 14-16, need something that hides the upper part of my arms (terrible bingo wings!), flattering on tummy and that I can bf in...any ideas please?!
Budget no more than £60 as need to still get shoes and bag and already wasting money on a dress I can return that I thought I'd be able to get away with but even with control pants on I look heavily pregnant so that's out.
Any suggestions gratefully received

Didn't want to read and run but just had a quick look at wrap dresses for BF friendly - this might be ok.

I'll look at more after bedtime.

Thank you have been looking at wrap dresses - is this ok or frumpy?!

Seraphine have some pretty and proper nursing dresses in the sale for £40ish too.

I love that, I'm too short to carry that style off and always think it looks so lovely on people.

Fingermoose · 25/06/2016 19:23

Yep, I think at 5'10 you'll be able to pull it off.

Or this m.houseoffraser.co.uk/Uttam+Boutique+Floral+Print+Wrap+Over+Dress/224239322,default,pd.html

I like that, Wishful - I'm slightly shorter than you and have a couple of dresses in that style from House of Fraser from Uttam Boutique and also Yumi, which are very flattering around my midriff!

Think I will order one of those- I've been holding out for a bardot dress but with a fuller skirt to it but can't find one that would fit my requirements. My final option would be a top and a full skirt- lots of lovely skirts around?

Ooh that skirt's beautiful! You might find a top and skirt easier to cope with if you're breastfeeding too - and more chance of wearing the outfit again. You could just put a feeding vest underneath a cardi.
