Very specific wedding dress search

[MoiraPose]

Hi all, I'm getting married next year and am looking for a very specific style of dress-any help would be greatly appreciated!

Wants:

Empire line
Flowy, long skirt
Bishop sleeves
V or sweetheart neck
NOT white
Can be either a day dress style or more formal (it's a registry office elopement)
Happy to spend up to £500
Something swishy and romantic

Me:

5ft6
Size 16
Late 30s
Mediterranean complexion
I love darker colours, especially jewel tones
Not a fan of a lot of patterns
I will be wearing flat shoes
Wedding will be in late spring

My searches are not bringing up anything! Help!

Oh and just a note on the first one, I realise the sleeves aren't blouson. But I'm sure there's enough fabric to change them to a slim blouson style

Love it in a dark colour

Is it this kind of vibe but longer and v neck?

Save £440 and use this one (last one left in size 16)

Have you looked at Rixo? Lots of lovely dresses on there.

Love this simple Phase Eight dress, especially on the curvier model in the photo below. Not white but still has a bridal feel to it.

She’s definitely not curvy!

Oh I like that Phase Eight one - the second model is definitely curvy (I am even curvier) and it looks good on her.

Sorry in one of the photos below on the site there's another model, not the first photo - she's definitely not curvy!

This is lovely.

Bernadette do stunning dresses that I always think would make perfect non traditional white wedding gowns. They are extremely chic and photograph beautifully too

Oh I missed your post! Yes really lovely dress I think

Absolutely elope in this - it’s gorgeous

This is empire line , with sleeves.

Shein has what you want...can't vouch for the quality though lol

Ooh I was going to say Needle & Thread and see you like it! I would look on eBay and rental websites too, there are so many out there.

This one is sort of similar, from Coast

I've no idea on the quality but this one came up when I searched 'bishops sleeves' https://m.shein.co.uk/SHEIN-Belle-Lantern-Sleeve-Sparkling-Formal-Dress-With-High-Slit-p-28044657.html?imgRatio=3-4&main_attr=27_2436&mallCode=1&isFromSwitchColor=1
