Help me find a wedding guest dress please

[Overthebow]

Please help me find a wedding guest dress. I have had a baby in the last 18 months and it’s been covid so I haven’t been to many events, and I have really bad sense of style. I’ve put on weight and want to look good and have no idea what to wear so I don’t look like an overweight run down mum.

Im currently a size 16, weight mostly on my stomach, hips and boobs, 5 foot 5 and am pretty self conscious so don’t want anything too out there. Budget anything up to £150. Thank you

I've recently got this one. You may need to turn it up...you can tuck the floppy bits of the sleeves up inside the sleeves do it looks more like puff sleeves.

I've put quite a lot of weight on around my stomach and I feel really comfy in it as it skims well.

That's lovely. I don't like any of the other dresses suggested, but that's really nice.

I'm a 16, baby 18months ago and literally looking at the dress @rewildingAmbridge posted for a wedding as it being a wrap I'm hoping will be flattering

I've bought this for a wedding , it's comfortable, flattering and the material has a bit of give

I love this! it's not the same wedding is it

[quote floofycroissant]It'd be helpful to know what you like or hate. Colours, print, sleeves, mini/maxi length. Are there any definite no-nos?

I think this would be very flattering and no out ther. Model is 5'6" so similar-ish

I have this dress and I can confirm it’s beautiful and feels lovely to wear. I’m a size 16 with small boobs and a big belly and felt great in it

It’s a wrap effect not a wrap dress - it’s gorgeous and flattering and the silky material feels lovely on. You should definitely get it
