Please help me find a Jacket.

I'm really hoping someone can help me find a jacket to go over a dress that I've already purchased for a wedding.

This is the dress which I have in a size 18 but I need a jacket to go over the top.

I have just bought, and returned this one because the whole outfir just looks too pink!!

The wedding is in March and I'd love a jacket in a similar style to the Roman one that I've just returned but I'd like it in either a wine or sage green - if you can zoom in on the dress you'll see it has both of these colours.

Because I'm a size 18 short boxy jackets really don't suit me. I like the softness the waterfall style offers.

Can anyone please offer advice on any suitable jackets.

Thank you

Definatly Thank you - that's a beautiful colour which would be perfect.

My only reservation is would a velvet jacket look alright over such a light weight dress??

Honestly I have zero fashion sense!, I live and work in trousers and tops. Dresses are a whole new world to me and I honestly need guidance!!!

I did Google Nancy Mac seafoam just to get an idea as I felt left out.

The seafoam one in nice, you could also go darker, a dark pink/burgundy or even a navy with that dress if you wanted something you'd get more wear out of

Oh also personally I agree that velvet is too heavy for that dress

Opinions Please

I like that a lot!

As it’s a silk/viscose mix velvet it shouldn’t be heavy, and the design is quite soft with the pleats which you wouldn’t get with a heavy cotton velvet.
