Wedding guest dress… help please!

Tabbycat81 · 13/03/2023 19:40

I’m looking for a blue/navy dress for a wedding. I’m a size 10/12, 30 years old.

Hit me up with some links please 🙏🏻 I feel like I’ve looked at every website known to human kind!

If you’ve looked at so many websites, what is it you’re finding unsatisfactory? I wouldn’t have thought a size 10/12 30 yr old would struggle to find nice clothes! What’s the difficulty?

(It might also be helpful if you could indicate whether you want to spend £20, £200 or £2000.)

Budget is anything from £20 up to around £200. I feel everything is either too bridesmaid like or too casual.

What style. Aline, Midi, Skater style, fitted, loose, sleeves, lace, etc etc. I'll have a little browse, I'm the same age and same size as you.

I wanted this for a wedding 2 years ago but it was out of stock in my size and I was gutted!

Look on ebay or vinted.

No one would know it's not new

On the www.mumsnet.com/talk/style_and_beauty/4753001-can-we-talk-about-clothing-brands-and-target-demographics?reply=124617107 thread people are talking about how and why we choose clothes. Have to say I’m quite surprised at the suggestions on this thread for someone of the OP’s age and dress size.

Anyway, this Batsheva dress probably isn’t formal enough, but you might fight the website interesting.

‘might find’ - no fighting involved!

Thank you! No real preference on style, I have quite wide hips in proportion to the rest of me so massive pleated dresses don’t really suit me.

Love the Ted Baker one @FinallyMrsE

I wore this one in a different colour for a wedding, love the material. I am 5'5" sz 10 not too long on me unlike some midis

Pretty dress company and oh hello clothing have gorgeous dresses. Oh hello actually have a "wedding guest" section. Chichi london are also good for wedding guest outfits.

Check out Rosie's closet. Some fab dresses.
