Help - wedding guest outfit, need to hide baby bump

7 replies

Bubbinsmakesthree · 19/08/2016 14:37

I'm going to a wedding next week. I've recently found out I'm pregnant and don't want to tell anyone yet.

I'm suffering from a bad case of '1st trimester bloat' and sporting a very distinct bump - I'm tall and normally quite 'straight up and down' so the pot belly is a dead giveaway. The outfit I had for the wedding is quite clingy and i look about 20 weeks gone in it!

So help me S&B, what can I wear?

Need to know details:
-I'm v tall, size 10, dark hair, pale skin
-prefer dresses at least knee length, and must look OK with flats
-wedding is at quite a smart venue but not overly formal/traditional.
-I have no budget as such as wasn't expecting to need to buy a new outfit! So cheap is good!

Structured fit and flare will give you a good waist in your silhouette
pastel blue
roses
pink

Ooh that is a good shape, thank you fauxfox. - I like the one with roses. I'm always cautious about white at weddings but that's not 'bridal' at all is it (is it?)

Just saw you want at least knee length in which case disregard my last suggestion as that one is quite short!

Thanks rosie - I like the second one though it is more than I would ideally want to spend.

I was looking at this one on asos:

Ooh love the pastel fit and flare!

The multiway is also lovely and if you wear with the sash in a bow at the front it offers more bump disguise!

I worry that being linen the multiway would end up looking like a rag, but it's a good price and could be dressed down so might get more wear out of it.
