I'm going to a graduation ball (not mine) and want to wear a jumpsuit (if that is what they are called) rather than a dress. For what it's worth I'm 5ft 5, size 10 hourglass figure.

I'm thinking about black, strapless (or some sort of nice neckline which is lower at the back - but still need to be able to wear a bra), peg leg or cigarette leg (do they call them 7/8 length?).

Thinking that I can wear with either nude heeled strappy gladiator style shoes or red heeled shoes.

I can't find anything which ticks all the boxes - strapless all seem to be wide legged and peg leg have sleeves.

I see people come on here and ask for suggestions and get lots of suggestions, so this is my plea to you all.

Help!!

Try Adrianna Pappell. I got a great swishy black jumpsuit from them last winter.

How much do you want to spend daily?

Is this the sort of thing?

BigFatBloomers · 09/05/2018 19:02

A cheaper version but these might be more fitted than you want.

Issa

I have this and it is really flattering, comfy and could be dressed up with heels:

I was thinking up to £100.

I like the first one, in my head I was thinking that it would accentuate my figure a bit more. What do you think? Would curves 'fill it out' a bit?

Sorry, cross posted. Bigfatbloomers - you are amazing! How do you do that? It's a special gift. I haven't even started on lifeaback's links...

Thank you!

I'mgoingto - I have a very similar one which was my original plan but when I tried it on it didn't feel dressy enough. I love it though!

Lifeaback - I love those too.

I'm going to have some serious decisions to make!

The Tooshop ruffle back or the Issa are both lovely.
