Can anyone recommend a flattering wedding guest dress?

I've got a wedding in two weeks and I'm struggling to find a dress. I've not really worn a dress for a while! I'm a curvy size 12 with big boobs and hips. Can anyone recommend something really figure flattering?

Budget?

I've just picked up a dress from SilkFred for £40 that's flattering and punches way above price point

I'd be happy to go up to £200, for the right dress, but more than happy to save money too! I'd love to see the Silk Fred dress you mentionSmile

These aren't really my style... they feel a bit old fashioned to me. Thank you though!

This is nice, but I don't think I would suit that. I'm not really fond of prints and it feels like a lot of fabric may add unwanted bulk Confused

I've had some gorgeous dresses from Hope & Ivy. They are very flattering

Thank you! These are not my usual style (prints etc) but do look lovely shapes for my body type. I think I'll order some to try and be open minded. Thank you Smile

I agree... Reiss would usually be my go-to, but the shapes and cuts this year don't look like they would be that flattering ie I can't really wear high neck line due to the booage 😑
