Please find me a dress to get married in

[poppym12]

Register Office, just the two of us and some random witnesses we'll have to find from somewhere.

I'd like a non patterned and not particularly weddingy dress that I could wear for other occasions afterwards. Pear/hourglass shape, 5'8 and currently s16 (vanity sizing probably). Colouring 'soft summer' so anything yellow, green or orange toned makes me look like a bubonic plague casualty. It's been a shit few months with illness and death, I've been neglecting my own health and appearance whilst looking after others and am feeling pretty repulsive right now.

Could anyone find me a dress that I might feel good in please?

Another vote here for that Ghost dress someone listed one page 1 - I am similar size and I have it in green. It's a great dress - shoulder pads are small and really flattering and it just looks timeless.
Worth a try (mine is a 16 but they may well do 18 too)

Awwww, over 100 miles away from London asleep but if you ever travel up towards the Midlands, let me know

Lady V?

Your suggestions are much appreciated. I'll carry on looking through them tomorrow.

Does anyone know if Ghost and Ted Baker sizing are true to size or based on tiny people?

@poppym12 PM me the date please, I've never been to the midlands and I could do with a day trip!
