Find me a dress thread?

Does anyone want to find me a dress?

It's for day drinks next month (provided we are still out of lockdown) so nothing too glamorous, something nice and summery maybe?

I have lost quite a lot of weight in lockdown and want to show it off and look fabulous.

I am 34, 5ft 2, with a small waist but still got a bit of lower belly fat so nothing too clingy around there. Olive/tanned skin and brown hair and eyes.

Budget upto £50

Should have said size 10 Blush might help

How about this with some box fresh trainers

I find dancing leopard wrap and shirt dresses are very flattering. You can tie the waist as tight or loose as you'd like so they wouldn't cling on your tummy.

There are a few in their sale. This one is nice and summery:

Or full price they have some within budget:

Steer away from their maxi dresses unless you're handy with sewing, as they'd be too long for you. I have a midi dress from there and at 5 ft 3 and a bit, it's actually maxi length on me!

I live the colour of the green one you linked @Imtoooldforallthis its gorgeous.

Oh shirt dresses, I have never thought of those. I like the red leopard print one, very funky. @Batfinklestein

Sorry @Amy365 your link comes up as 404 error.

I usually dress to flatter my bust but I don't really have much bust left hence wanting to show off my new found waist line Grin

I love the zip details on the back but I think the length might be a bit awkward with me being so short it would fall past my knee. Lovely dress though.

I find Nobody’s child dresses very flattering on the waistline. Maybe something like this www.nobodyschild.com/clothing/dresses/lenzingtm-ecoverotm-pink-and-cream-floral-evelyn-tie-back-midi-dress.html
