Where to look for evening reception dress in size 18-20

We have a wedding reception in a few weeks and I'm looking for a reasonably priced dress, size 18 ish, online, that will preferably hide my big post babies stomach.

I've no idea where to even start - any website suggestions?

Personally I would just do an eBay search. It's a night out and you might lose the belly in a years time. You 'll find lots of different styles and there's less chance someone else will be wearing it.

Get Cutie is a British company that make dresses with quirky material. They have a range of styles that show off boobs and curves but in a good way. Not the cheapest ( they make them up to order so actually good value) but they do have sale stock and even if it's not online will help you if you give them a ring. Also on eBay.

Boden, Next and Monsoon all go up to at least a size 20.

Asos has a plus size range, Asos Curve.

Might not be your taste at all it's cotton, handmade in the uk and a flattering fit - and less than £35 with postage - to give you an idea. Make sure you measure against their website as they use vintage patterns.

I like Monsoon, but not always the cheapest.
