Wedding guest dress problems.

[Sameold23]

Hi, I'm currently suffering with Sciatica which means no heels as can't walk and numb foot. One of my legs is also a different colour (gp aware). This means that I'm looking for a longer dress for a wedding next week. I'm a size 16 and tall. Can anyone please help? I'm really struggling to find something and dont think I'll be able to make it to any shops.

Should I just buy American tan or black tights with a shorter dress??? 🤣

Can't post a pic but I got a lovely navy lace midi dress for a wedding from JD Williams if that helps.

Is this nice??

Yes, I think that looks lovely!

Have a look at the Scarlett & Jo website! Loads of lovely dresses which are full length maxi. I’m 5’8 and mine is just perfect, true to size and really well made.

Yes OP. That looks lovely for a wedding.

I have this and love it (I’m 5 foot 8 and it comes almost to the floor) https://www.phase-eight.com/product/kara-floral-tiered-maxi-dress-221494617.html#cgid=maxi&is=true&sz=60&start=0&isSecondPage=false&pid=221494617&pos=0

Would something like this one work for you?

Was basically going to suggest the same.

The JD Williams dress is lovely OP. Gorgeous colour and style.

I love this one

I had a quick look for Adrianna Papell as they’ve recently been greatly reduced. Jumpsuit in navy. But may be difficult to manage as per previous post. https://www.grattan.co.uk/products/adrianna-papell-metallic-crinkle-jumpsuit/_/A-55C085_10?PFM_rsn=browse&PFM_ref=true&PFM_psp=own&PFM_pge=1&PFM_lpn=41

Green dress but depends which leg is affected. Only in 18 though. https://www.grattan.co.uk/products/adrianna-papell-draped-knit-crepe-gown/_/A-24W801_8?PFM_rsn=browse&PFM_ref=true&PFM_psp=own&PFM_pge=1&PFM_lpn=44

I have this with the cascade you don’t see much leg. 16 availhttps://www.grattan.co.uk/products/adrianna-papell-metallic-knit-cascade-gown/_/A-83H095_20?PFM_rsn=browse&PFM_ref=true&PFM_psp=own&PFM_pge=1&PFM_lpn=43

I'd suggest a full length jumpsuit as this would also look nice with flat shoes.

I would consider wearing wide leg trousers and possibly a matching top so that it looks like a jumpsuit. Alternatively wide leg evening type trousers and a silk shirt or a nice trouser suit with a silk or satin camisole of t-shirt style blouse. A full length dress can sometimes look too casual for the formality of most weddings.

I've got this for a September wedding. I found some very sparkly flat sandals in M&S to go with it.
