Elegant dress for wedding.

I would love some help please? I am going to a wedding in a month and I need to get an elegant dress, it’s at a posh country house and I always feel like I miss the mark when it comes to dressing for weddings.

I want a high neck or at least a rounded neck because I hate the skin on my chest. Also at least elbow length arms.

I want to wear my gold wedding shoes https://www.farfetch.com/ie/shopping/women/carvela-glitter-high-heel-sandals-item-16384914.aspx?size=27&storeid=12453&utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_keywordid=119355473&utm_shoppingproductid=16384914-27&pid=google_search&af_channel=Search&c=2069286878&af_c_id=2069286878&af_siteid=&af_keywords=pla-297519760682&af_adset_id=74677303085&af_ad_id=204889361036&af_sub1=119355473&af_sub5=16384914-27&is_retargeting=true&shopping=yes&gbraid=0AAAAADsmKHR1R3GWxbiG3CL-M5VcWRzK8&gclid=Cj0KCQjwkqSlBhDaARIsAFJANkhTv9yajGzrE5JLk1CmrPFjOPdY4kKvgrYqytXLK3J2dAhVaTpj4mwaAgkvEALw_wcB as they are super comfy but if they don’t suit and the dress is right I’ll just get some new shoes. Budget is up to £200 and below are some styles I like but neither of them are available.

Thanks in advance!

Love the shoes!

What shape are you?
What colouring?
Do you prefer patterns, florals or plain?

I’m 5,5 and a size 8 so fairly slim but curvy and I have 32E boobs.

I’d prefer something colour appropriate for summer so not navy. I always wear greys and blues but that’s just me stuck in a rut. I like plain best as I’ll get more wear out of it.

Would you consider sleeves that are translucent eg net/gauze/chiffon?

Some more, all shorter than the one you posted and less clean in terms of line.
