Wedding dress detectives this way please

i need fashion detective help. I need a wedding dress (third wedding so no long princess dresses). I’m a youthful mid 50s, blessed with a good figure (size 8/10) 5’5” and legs I’m quite proud of, thanks to being into fitness. The wedding is late winter.

I know my budget is tiny at max of £150. I like the two attached photos but open to suggestions. Any fashion gurus able to help me out please.

Coast have a number of similar dresses well within budget OP. Might be worth a look (think they also have an extra 20% today)

I'm literally no help but I just wanted to say how lovely your choices are. Good luck finding them! I like dress one best - so chic.

The neckline on both of those dresses is very similar. The first looks gorgeous and straight out of the 1950's (and in a good way!)

Here are some other suggestions if you can't find those dresses in your price range:

Option 1

Option 2

Option 3 - this doesn't have the same neckline but the embellishment is gorgeous

Option 4

Option 5

Option 6 - you could rent this one (would be way over the budget otherwise)

I will keep looking if none of these take your fancy.-

Here are a couple more:

Ralph Lauren

Short Ralph Lauren

@LookItsMeAgain love option 3!!

I have just gone mad on the Coast website and ordered several to try. Thank you!

Oh that's wonderful. I hope you find one that works for you!

Best of luck!!

Thank you so much again for the Coast recommendation, it’s not one of the shops I would normally think of. I went for this one, with added bonus it will do for parties etc afterwards, both summer and winter so even more of a bargain. Now I just need to accessorise. I’m thinking maybe white ankle boots or opera gloves with fur trim! Or maybe just a really good manicure!
