I have got no idea where to start! The last time I wore a dress was to a friends wedding 3 and a half years ago, and before that on my wedding day! lol. I am 27 years old, 5ft 5, big belly, big boobs, size 16. I don't want to look like a flump. The party is at a posh hotel. I have got the kids and DH sorted, but I hate shopping for myself. I don't want anything thats going to cling to my tummy as thats where i am the most self conscious. I don't mind sleeveless things. Someone help me!!

Well, I bought a firm hold-everything-in type body thing in M&S at the weekend. It makes everything look smooth and a dress size smaller.

OK, we need colour preferences? and would you like long, or more cocktaily - how posh is it?

I'll go and have a look in the meantime

Quite drapey and flattering on the arms?

As some of you will already know, I would recommend the Wallis grey animal print dress as, surpise surpise, it would suit your shape.

Hopefully got it sussed this time MMAM!
