53 plus size (22/24) stepmum of the bride….dress?

[MissPinkCakeyBun]

Oh I’m in a heap of pain trying to find a dress for my much loved stepdaughters wedding in June. To add to my stress the wedding is 6 weeks after her dads and mine ( end of April )
I get on well with her mum ( DH exW and she is happy about me being there and said to me get mum of the bride type outfit as she will be and wants me too as well.
I wear 50’s style dresses and petticoats all the time and have pink hair, I don’t want to be the centre of attention so thought it would be nice to dress down a bit but we live in rural Somerset so I shop online but have no idea where to start I’ve put up some pics to show my style and body shape….any and all help very greatfully received
(Her colour scheme is Navy & Blush)

Can't help but wanted to say I love your photo! You look super cool!

That's a fab photo OP!

Have you tried www.scarlettandjo.com/ - their dresses are gorgeous and very complimentary on.

Something exactly like what you're wearing in a more summery/weddingy colour would be perfect OP. Be yourself. I hate it at weddings when everyone looks uncomfortable in things they clearly wouldn't usually wear. It's almost as if they're in fancy dress as "wedding guests".

Fab photo, you look fantastic!!

God, you look amazing! Exactly that dress, but in navy with ‘blush’ shoes and belt?

Dye your hair Blush!

Second other posters, stay true to your style because you look awesome. A blush or navy dress in that cut with the opposite in accessories would look amazing!

Exactly what I was thinking

You, but summery wedding with gorgeous hair in the brides colour...

You look amazing. How about something like this

You look fab, sexy mama, wit woo!
I love your style, get the same style dress in navy or blush or with a floral pattern.
Enjoy your day

Was about to say the same. Absolutely love the dress in the picture.

@Whatalovelydaffodil it's from Dolly and Dotty, sadly I can't get it in Navy

Thanks for all the kind words

Could you take the dress to a dressmaker and get her to copy it in the right colours?

I was going to say a navy version of the dress in the picture but you say it doesnt come in navy

I would say something like that, it clearly suits you

British Retro have some beautiful dresses and their quality is really high. Plus they're not overly expensive either.
