Wedding guest dress

A bit of a last minute, got a wedding to go to in a couple of weeks, but haven't got a dress yet!

This is the closest to what I want, but it's a wrap, and they never stay put.

Anyone seen anything close to this?

Also, is it ok to wear maxi if I'm not a bridesmaid? The trouble with maxi though is that I'm only 5'3" so it has to be available in Petite.

Has to be short sleeve or sleeveless, midi or maxi if available in Petite, V neck or anything for bigger boobs, but not a wrap!

Nothing floral, ideally navy or darker green.

It's a naice hotel wedding, budget up to £150.

Hit me with your suggestions please!

I looked at this dress as I quite like it and a review said it's not actually a wrap dress, just looks like it. It wasn't the best review though.
I'm also looking for a wedding guest dress and want a maxi. There are loads on Next, if you haven't looked there and you can filter for petite size.

How about this one:

I know it isn't the same as your one, but lovely quality and similar vibe?

Gosh, how rude of me, I forgot to check back in.

That Asos wrap dress was a typical wrap one, with half your boob on display, so it went back. I've got a lovely maxi one, which is way too long as predicted, but I've got a family member shortening it for me.

Thank you everyone for your input 🙏

In answer to your other question of course it's acceptable to wear maxi dresses to a wedding , just check it's not the same colour as the bridesmaid's
