Help find me a dress for my Mum’s 60th

[captainflash]

I’ve been drawing a blank everywhere I go and would love some help. I need a dress for my Mum’s 60th birthday party in a couple of weeks. It’s only in a pub so not totally dressy but I’d really like to look nice.
(Without wanting to drip feed, I split up with my husband of 13 years around a year ago and my family weren’t the most supportive over it. I’ll see people there I haven’t seen since and want to look AWESOME!)

Things I like:

• Swing / tunic dresses
• T shirt shaped dresses
• Grey, red, black, denim
• Interesting prints (galaxy, stars....)
• Beading and sequins
• Short (I have good legs)
• Big floral prints

Things I do not like:

• 50’s style dresses
• Skater style, fit and flare
• Stupid voluminous sleeves
• Cold shoulders, Bardot style tops, fake choker necklines
• Twee or ditsy florals

Shops I like include Zara, & Other Stories, Cos, John Lewis Kin, Warehouse, H&M, Topshop

I’m 5ft7, 37, good legs and arms, fat tummied size 14 so not clingy or too fitted. Would prefer sleeves and to wear a bra...
Can spend up to around £60.
Please help if you can!

have you looked at silk Fred?

This is pretty short but seems to fit the brief.

Watching with interest.

You seem to have the same taste/shape as me OP and I have a friends 40th birthday bash coming up soon.

I quite like this (paired with some rose gold sandals?)

Hmmm- thank you for all the suggestions.
From my extensive list, you can probably see I am pretty difficult to please. I’m not sure about all the florals. I like an odd interesting old Liberty style floral but am unsure of the newer prints.
I like animal print and glitter too. Considering the Hush Easy Glitter dress- perhaps my style is simpler than I’ve explained???
I can’t dk short clicks links though!

Those ASOS ones are more my style.
I wore one like the second as a teenager!

I looked at the Pimkie galaxy one earlier but they only have a tiny size. I like that one

Sorry OP, didn't look at the sizing! I love the galaxy/star print

Bumping for the daytime crowd.
I think the last Topshop one is probably my favourite so far. (Other than the Pimkie Asos one that probably wouldn’t go around my arm) But, I don’t know if I’d need a M or L so probably need to see if I can find it in store.

I probably sound pretty shallow- seeing as it’s not my party- but I took such a knock with the split and I’ve put on a bit of weight too. Just want to look nice and show everyone I’m ok I guess.
Thanks
