Where can I find a beautiful wedding guest dress?

A very close family member is getting married next month (in the UK where we are) and I have nothing suitable to wear. I understand that Google exists but I feel like I’ve been on every website and now need recommendations.

Possibly relevant information:
*I’m 5’3”
*Early 30s
*Size 8-10 (although more like a 10 after a week of turkey, sausage rolls and wine).
*I’d ideally like nothing too fitted around the middle as I have a c-section overhang that I can’t rid myself of for love nor money.
*It’s a winter wedding so I’d like some wintery colours if possible.

People of Mumsnet can you help?

I also came to suggest a Nancy Mac jumpsuit. I've been eyeing this up:

I find them pretty true to size. My dresses from them are are in a 14. I have put a bit of weight on recently and nudged into size 16 territory and they are getting a little tighter!!
They are fabulous dresses and jumpsuits though!

I attended a Christmas wedding as ordered my dress from Ever Pretty, they are a website but can also be found via Amazon and offer free returns too via the Amazon option. I chose a long dark green dress that looked festive but still very formal.

Hi @Iamgrace it would probably be best to start your own thread on the Pregnancy section, that way you''ll get more visibility and also they will have the knowledge to answer. Wish you all the best Flowers

Hello, you will need to start a new thread as you have inadvertently replied to a fashion thread. Good luck.
