Help with wedding guest outfit 4ft11

6 replies

Hello

can you help please? Going to very close relatives wedding soon and I just can’t find anything! I’m usually a primark/shein kind of person tbh so not very stylish and I don’t have much money.

so wedding is boho, barn/field kind of thing.
I’m 4ft 11, big boobs, size 10/12, good legs.

I’ve never worn long because I’m so short but have just had a lot of my usual style delivered from shein and although some of its nice and I’ll keep it for my holidays it just doesn’t look posh enough. Oh and I’m 45.

would spend up to £100 to look great.

Thanks 😊

I'm 5ft and sympathise as I find it close to impossible to find clothes that fit and make me feel put together. I'm going to a wedding soon (not formal, no sit down meal) and have bought on Vinted a Dorothy Perkins Billie and Blossom Petite dress (new with tags, £8).

I would definitely have a look on Vinted and search for Petite brands. You can filter by style etc which makes it easier.

Something from Pixiegirl?

How about this from ASOS, @Weddingfrock? Petite sizing, but only the 10, not the 12 left:

Definite boho vibe.

This, same brand and source, is simpler

And if you scroll down this page:

https://www.asos.com/women/petite/dresses/cat/?cid=8350&currentpricerange=10-140&sort=pricedesc&scrollTo=product-206191788

there seem to be several Never Fully Dressed things that meet your brief. Also Nobody’s Child petite dresses. Looking at that page the cut off point for actually nice, smart frocks you could wear again seems to be around £85.

Oh I missed the bit about spending up to £100, ignore my Vinted suggestion!
