Please! Help me find a dress for my 40th!

[MissMogwai]

I had lots of help on here when I was looking for my wedding dress a few months ago. So I was hoping for some help choosing a dress for my 40th party in a couple of weeks.

I'm 5ft3", size 14 and very top heavy. I am dieting but it's slow going. I have a good waist and boobs and ok legs but hate the tops of my arms and stomach.

I normally like tea dress style but I can't find anything I like. Have tried a few fitted dresses but bust looked huge.

Any ideas please? Budget up to £80 for a fab dress. Party is at home so not too formal.

Thanks in advance!

Happy nearly birthday, I'm the same 40th party in a few weeks. Im more a size 10 but heavy chested and not loving my arms ether but got this dress on asos has lovely open lower back bit that means still wear a bra but nice detail at slim part of back. Also the criss-cross bit at tummy gives a bit of coverage. Sorry but I don't know how to do link but can find the style name if it's something you might like.

Thanks same to you! 🍾🎉

That's a gorgeous dress, I bet you look fab. I never thought of ASOS, I'll have a look.

@user1471524391 That's a lovely dress, what is it called?

This green dress could be great on you.

Failing that, there were loads of nice ones at & Other stories which you might want to look at (I would size up, i'm not sure they are that generously cut in the bust)

That's a lovely dress. I'm a bit too short and dumpy to pull that off I think.

I'm having a nightmare finding anything. Everything I like is either 'midi' length so looks just too long on me or just not quite right.

I'll probably end up wearing something I've already got!
