I need help! I am size 12, 5 foot 5 and need a dress that is suitable for an evening wedding by a river in a marquee(already married abroad so just an evening do). I am curvy, would like to cover my mum tum and would like some sort of sleeve. Nothing above knee or clingy. Budget £250 max. I am open to wearing any colour so open to anything really, I love silk fabrics. I have trawled everything, but always pleasantly surprised by the suggestions I see on MN S&B. Help!!

Have a look at Gina bacconi. They have some lovely dresses. Mixed bag as they cater for all ages. I am actually selling a gorgeous brand new Brenna in size 12 as I’ve changed my mind on that dress and got a different GB dress. I’m so indecisive

Have you tried phase 8? I always thought it was for older people but I’ve actually picked up a couple of nice bits. I’m 42 which is guess is getting older I’m just in denial

Thank you! Love the jumpsuit. I will also look again at Phase eight . I always think of shift dresses there!

I was the same but someone in S&B linked to a gorgeous jumpsuit just before Xmas which was perfect for a night out I had.
