Wedding guest dress - Sept wedding

[gymgirl11]

Hi all,

I'm looking for some style advice! I'm going to a wedding in September and I am wondering two things:

1. If this dress is suitable (I.e - not too bright & no hint of a baby pouch/too tight at the back. I'm 6 months postpartum and will by 9 months pp by time of wedding)

2. Not sure which accessories (shoes/bag) would work. I'm thinking Nude, Cream or Black as I would like to use again.

Thanks all! 😊

It’s a lovely dress and would be suitable but it does look a bit small particularly at the back. Could you size up?

Love it op

Thank you! I am happy to size up but I have a feeling if I do size up it will then be too big on the bust.

Love the back!

I think if you've got 3 more months to go you may be fine - are you breastfeeding? (Just thinking boob size changing!)

Think nude shoes would go best

Thank you! I was thinking nude shoes but have yet to find a pair I like and could walk in.

And no, formula feeding :) so the boobs will stay as they are!

Lovely dress, perfect for a wedding and I'd say size wise it looks just right. If you size up I think it would be too baggy.

I think you could also have gold or silver shoes or sandals

This style seems to be around at the moment www.newlook.com/uk/womens/footwear/shoes/sandals/gold-strappy-block-heel-chunky-platform-sandals/p/687432893?_cclid=Google_EAIaIQobChMIs6CqiL349wIVOo1oCR0kFQQ1EAQYAyABEgIGyfD_BwE&extcam=UK_PPC_PLA_Generics_NC_Google_DV_m&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIs6CqiL349wIVOo1oCR0kFQQ1EAQYAyABEgIGyfD_BwE

Can’t quite see the colour of the smaller flowers - chose that for shoes - can you post the colour and we can have a look? Shoe size would be helpful.

But lovely dress.

Lovely dress!
Nude shoes would look great.
Looks good fit to me.

Love this! Cut outs are so in at the moment!

Thank you for these - I didn't consider gold or silver so more colours to consider :)

The smaller flowers are a mixture of: white and yellow with a hint of the pink from the dress - will try and get a close up! :)

Shoe size is 5.5UK.

Thank you so much!

Will probably lean towards a nude or silver shoe I think!

Thank you for all your comments so far!

I've posted a close up photo of the flowers if that will help with the accessories. They are a mixture of white/blue, yellow and pink.

Jewellery wise, I'll be going for white gold (colour of my engagement ring)

Shoe size is also 5.5UK - Next are normally my go to as they have a forever comfort range!

Love it! I think the size is absolutely fine.

Thank you! :)

Don’t accessorise it with black. Pick out one of the colours in the flowers. A burnt orange clutch could go well. Or pink.

I love the dress, where did you get it? I wouldn't go for black shoes, maybe nude or pick out one of the colours from the print

Great advice with extra colours, I didn't think of burnt orange!

Thank you. It's from Coast! They also sell it in black with the flowers on.

It's a little on the pricey side (even with the discount!) but I plan to wear it to many things over the next few years :)

Nude seems to be the way forward!

Will be lovely once fascinator and buttonhole added.

Nice dress - flattering on you.

Is that your bra showing at the back?

I would opt for nude or yellow shoes (think I saw yellow flowers on the dress). Black would look to harsh.

Thank you!

and no it's not (not wearing a bra in the photo). It has a button fastener at the top to create an oval cut out & then a button fastener in the middle so it has a mini triangle cut out.

Yes, it has yellow flowers on. Not quite a bright yellow, more an ochre so could also be a choice.

I hope the PP that suggested a fascinator was joking....

The dress is gorgeous, I think nude, gold or silver shoes would go best!
