Wedding Guest Outfits - Plus Size Maternity

Synecdoche · 09/07/2023 23:04

I've got a few summer weddings coming up when I'll be between 26-30 weeks pregnant. I'm still just fitting into my standard occasion wear but feel that in a few weeks that ship will have sailed!

I'm really struggling to find something wedding guest appropriate. I'm a size 20, 6ft, hourglass shape and prefer a V neck with angel sleeves. Ideally would like a jumpsuit but open to a dress/skirt/coord (a dress/skirt would need to be a midi length). Can't wear purple or pale blues but anything else goes really. Need something I can wear a proper bra with.

If anyone's seen any or can recommend any websites that'd be great, thank you. Have scoured Vinted and my usual go-tos to no avail.

If you decided to rent you might find something by Marina Rinaldi. This seems to be their most expensive ‘occasion’ dress.

This is the best thought. It would look magnificent at a wedding.

Thanks @24Dogcuddler, I didn't realise Seraphine went up to a 20 in some styles as all the ones I'd looked at stopped at a 18! Do you think the others would be suitable for a bump? Not been pregnant before - is it just a case of sizing up?

Renting is a great idea @MetaDaughter and that yellow dress is amazing! Would the belt fit above bump do you think?

You wouldn’t have to wear the belt if you felt better without. A great bag would be accessory enough, I think.

It is an amazing dress - quite tempted myself, although I’d need half the bottom row of flouncing chopped off.

Sorry didn’t see your question OP
A while since I was pregnant but I think lots of people size up or wear loose dresses now. You can only try.
