They are trying to tell me this dress looks good for a wedding.

[EachandEveryone]

A casual pub wedding. And other stories. I’m a 38g above. Its not a wedding dress is it? Isn’t it a funny colour?

Omg I’m gutted!! It won’t fasten over my boobs

Same thing

Have you tried PhaseEight? They do dresses with a fair bit of stretch which might work better for you?

You definitely need a wrap dress for the bazungas.

I actually love this but the back won’t fasten past my bra

White Stuff has 15% off today on voucher codes.

I prefer that red one's skirt style to the previous one. I don't think that deep ruffle thing does anyone any favours.

Honestly, head to Bravissimo.

Could you wear the blue one with a navy silk camisole under it, so the gap looks intentional? That dress really suits you

I just had a look on the bravissimo website. Looks great. I didn't know they did clothes before this thread. Worth having a nosey OP.
I wonder how curvy super curvy is.
Trying on clothes that don't fit is really demoralising.

I’m not running around today I only came out so the cleaner could get on. I think she’s beginning to hate me being off. I’m in Hampstead it’s not the place for anyone with lumps and bumps. So no choice appart from Hobbs Jigsaw and Whistles. I don’t understand whistles tops always fit me. It must be to do with my op the sudden growth spurt.

Yet another vote for bravissimo. I’m sure they do free returns so you can order a few different things and try on at home. It was a complete revelation to me and that I could buy a dress that fitted by boobs and my waist at the same time.

It would be lovely if they had second hand shops with treasures in them but I don’t think they give away much here there Charity shops are very tatty I’m in the mood for a rummage as well

poor OP, I feel your pain. Go home rest up. Sort out your undies. Then from the comfort of your chair, do as other suggest and order a load of stuff on a credit card.

Try it on and choose one. The Bravissimo maxi could work really well.
Those look a bit dated to me?

And/or go to John Lewis and get a personal shopper. I had one who looked about 12 but was excellent at her job.

also maybe get a friend to act as bringer of clothes , when you get your stash from the internet. I think you need to move away from that formal style into something floaty, younger with great accessories.

Sleeveless dresses look much nicer on you than the half sleeve ones. I hope you find something you like.

sorry OP, no wish to be unkind but they are totally unsuitable.

Bravissimo dresses are fantastic.

For those wondering about the curvy scale - I’m size 12, 30HH, and go for ‘really curvy’.

Agree you need Bravissimo!

They all look like jersey to me though maybe you need to look more

I need to look more not you!

Bless you OP for being brave and showing yourself on here. I hope you get something you are happy with and I agree with a trip to Bravissimo to see what they have.
