Being dressed up while ill

[RyanGoslingRocks]

Hi
I’m going away for a celebratory weekend next weekend with family. It is at a spa hotel and there will be evening meals/coffees etc but it’s not a function iyswim.
The problem is I’m on the transplant list and as a result of my condition I’ve got a permanently bloated stomach. Which is fine but it’s totally out of proportion as I’m very tall (6ft) and have a slim/medium build.
I normally wear jeans (a size bigger than normal) but only have a few tops that still fit me, even after going up a couple of sizes. Im normally in trackies by dinner time too, but obviously can’t this weekend!
I’d like to have a nice weekend, be quite smartly dressed but I need to feel comfortable too.
I bought a pair of black jersey culottes (elasticated!) and a nice top which could do for one evening.
Any ideas for the other evening?
I don’t look ill, I just have a huge stomach and don’t want to look/feel rubbish when it’s such a nice occasion and has been planned for over a year (rescheduled due to covid).
Thank you 😊

A wrap style dress might work, especially one with some rouching to kind of skin over your tummy.

What about slouched dresses from Roman with black leggings and nice boots?

Skim that should say!

Thanks @OnlyToWin but the wrap dresses done suit me at all (not busty enough!) and my belly button protrudes because of the fluid…sorry should’ve mentioned that.
@CornishTiger thanks so much, they might just fit the bill!

How about an elasticated waist midi pleated skirt with a longer length cami and biker jacket? You can wear it with boots, trainers or flats. I've got this Manamou one in a few colour ways and it's so comfortable.

Also tunic jumpers over leggings, jeans?

Tiered maxi dresses again with trainers or boots.

I also love knitted loungewear, so comfortable but a little bit smarter than sweats. I usually wear mine with a maxi edge to edge cardigan in a matching colour.

Shackets (denim, check, camo, faux leather) are great too over black leggings and long black T-shirt?

You don't need boobage for this and would skim over your stomach.

Popsy trapeze style dress maybe?
And they have pickets!

Pockets as well!

I would wear the same trousers both nights with two different tops and two different pairs of shoes/boots or you could go for nice leggings with boots and something like this to dress it up ? Have a fab time whatever you decide. www.roman.co.uk/mesh-longline-kimono-19013008

You defo need a trapeze shaped dress and / tunic top.

And 🤞🏼That you get your transplant soon.

I would probably take a wrap/poncho type thing with you so you can wear it as a cover up if you feel like it - with the weather getting colder it's great anyway. I have a cashmere-merino blend one from Woolovers in a charcoal grey colour. Goes with almost any outfit.
