Opinions on a wedding outfit

21 replies

So my Bil is getting married in July and Im struggling to get an outfit.

I have put nearly 2.5 stone on in the last few years due to now being disabled.
I've found some heels that I love and that I can stand in. The wedding is at a hotel for the ceremony and reception so I can sit down or take them off. I've even bought a new walking stick which is cane style so looks nicer than my normal one.

Opinions please, I feel dumpy and just can't decide is the dress is OTT.

I think you look lovely in that dress. I went to a wedding recently and you would have fitted right in. Go for it and have a lovely day.

HerRoyalNotness · 23/06/2019 20:38

I think you look really lovely in it.

TheVeryHungryTortoise · 23/06/2019 20:39

I think that you look amazing! You look really slim, that extra weight looks good on you!

GemSmith738 · 23/06/2019 20:39

I think that's lovely!

Lovely! Perfect wedding attire. Do you have a hat/fascinator?

OP this is so weird, i have literally just seen photos of an acquaintances wedding on facebook and one of the women was wearing this exact dress and there were multiple comments asking where she had got it from! Its lovely and not dumpy at all, the proportions are just right.

Chewbecca · 23/06/2019 20:51

Gorgeous, really, you look great.

Jarjarblinks · 23/06/2019 20:51

You look lovely. The dress is perfect for your shape!!

Can I be cheeky and ask where it is from and what height you are?

RuggyPeg · 23/06/2019 21:03

It looks fabulous!

Thanks for the replies, you've given me the confidence I needed.
mrsmarymoonface I do have fascinator and a clip in feather thing which I'll see what my mass of hair looks like with it in.

jarjarbinks it's by chi chi london. I'm 5ft 6". It does come up really small. This one is a 14 which I bought 2nd hand and she had a lace back put in which is great as now my boobs fit and I can pull it in where needed.

The weddings is in 3 weeks so look for it listed on ebay after then 😜
