Help dress needed for dinner dance

7 replies

Hi stylish people I’m after some chemo please in finding a dress for a dinner dance next Saturday! I’m after a long or midi dress budget up to £100. I’m 53 and a dumpy size 10 would prefer some sort of short sleeve if possible but not a deal breaker and suit autumn colours . Grateful for all help with my homework !! TIA

Actually, by 'dumpy', do you mean short torso/legs? Or stomach you want to draw eye away from?

(Maybe a dressmaker could alter it to a better length for you? But the autumnal burgundy colour and rest of design is flattering).
