Nobody's Child Starlight dress?

Does anyone have this? Could I get away with it for a not-super-formal but quite city-chic wedding?

I could really do with something I can wear again and this in the navy or red (on sale!) could fit the bill.

I have some bronze Esska shoes or some nude suede block-heel sandals that might work, not sure about jacket yet!

I'm a 12-14 with quite big boobs, which is another consideration - it does look like a very deep V.

I have this in black. It's actually a lovely dress and looks much more expensive than it actually is and always garners lots of compliments when worn. Definitely dressy enough for a wedding. The neckline is vvv deep though!

I haven't tried it on but wanted to but it in red!

It looks nicely made and lined (I think) and I would wear it for a wedding. It is a lovely shape.

If the v is too deep you could wear a body underneath/oin it

It's nice. I would go for red but some people get funny about colours at weddings.

Ahh this is helpful, thank you all! I've ordered it in red and navy to try. I've done a trick before with a little bit of lace beneath a very low neck so could perhaps try that.

They do, don't they?! I still don't really know what's acceptable 😂 I was considering wearing a black jumpsuit but although I've worn it to an evening do before, I don't know if I can get away with it for an all-day wedding I think there'll still be a reasonable amount of pastel fascinators etc, and black always looks a bit wrong when faced with that!
