Invited to an A list wedding- need an outfit!

[Alsogoingtogetslated]

I’ve been invited to a very high profile wedding. I had planned to lose 2 stone to fit into my outfit.
I didn’t.
So now I have a few weeks to find a stunning outfit (online) but my searching just keeps pulling up the same old shops- Reiss, Karen Millen, SHEIN/boo hoo etc. I’ve looked at needle and thread, Nancy max, the OUTNET.
What great websites can I look at to find-
Budget up to around £500
i suit red/cobalt blue/deep pink/green- jewel colours
I suit jumpsuits/ midi and maxi dresses/high necks if they are high cowl/structured, one shouldered and halterneck things and wide leg trousers and blazers
I like structured clothes but it doesn’t have to be
I don’t suit short dresses or anything wafty or round necks or pastel colours.
I'm size 16, fairly big boobed.

Bonus points if you can find me something!

Yo, @Alsogoingtogetslated , you still with us?!

I think Calvin Harris sister or mum 😂 based on my own mad thinking nothing else

This is what I wore to my daughters wedding in 2020, I was size 16 in this photo and it was really comfortable to wear and looked lovely 😍

Me and em have a fabulous red silk dress with pink trim. Can’t add link but we’ll worth a look.

There’s a Facebook page for pre loved wedding outfits. Might not have what you’re looking for but they have many too end outfits. Target market is MOG and MOBs

Have a look at Aspiga, I think they have lovely dresses🙂

I like this!

I haven’t read the whole thread. Has anyone mentioned Bombshell? They do lovely dresses in large sizes and there have a sale on.

Rixo do the most beautiful dresses!

They used to, @Curlysuzie. Now it’s all just droopy stuff to keep women inoffensive and fluttery. Farm Rio has stolen a march on them.

I’m the same size as you with big boobs. I have a gorgeous jumpsuit from Hobbs and like their dresses too. Fairly structured and always great quality.
I presume you’ve looked at monsoon who have those turquoise jewelled colours? Studio 8?

Some gorgeous dresses on this site... loving this red number.

If you are on Facebook, there are Preloved Wedding and Occasion Wear pages on there - lots of the styles/colours you are looking for. High end fashion names at half the price, you would easily find something in your budget range. Good luck!

Wouldn't a dress made of wetsuit fabric be really hot and sweaty?

Personally I would rent something

I’m so sorry I haven’t been back for a little while. Such fabulous suggestions (and great discussion!). I’m definitely going to look at renting something, I hadn’t thought of that!

It makes perfect sense!
Why splash out mega bucks when you're only going to be wearing something once or twice.

That's what I've decided I'm going to do for my dd's wedding.

Have a great time!

You look amazing.
