Where to buy wedding guest dress?

I'm going to a wedding at the end of summer and I need a dress. I'm in France so it's going to be hot. Ideally I'd like a maxi dress, preferably green, a bit boho. Budget probably £50 max.

I'm not very inspired by ASOS etc at the mo, where else do you recommend I look?

Monsoon has a sale. Lots of boho green dresses if you search In cotton and viscose.

My daughter just bought a lovely dress from Quiz. It's not a maxi dress but they had plenty of maxi dresses.

Joe brown do lots of dresses in boho style

Silkfred is always worth a look for wedding guest dresses

The apricot one is lovely

@JamSlags The Apricot one is gorgeous! I'd never heard of any of those shops, going to do some surfing, thank you so much!

@CharlotteRumpling Thank you, will have a look right now! I never think to look on Monsoon for some reason, just always forget it's there.

@Comefromaway Thank you, will have a good look at the website. The one Jam posted was lovely but a bit too bright green for me, they're bound to have lots of other options.

@sprigatito Oh wow that Debenhams one is beautiful! I love it but don't know if the ruffled shoulders will suit me. I like the boden one too but feel like it's not fancy enough. I like anything with a v-neck and dainty shoulders as I'm slightly broad shouldered, so feel like ruffles/big sleeves just make them look even bigger. Anything that shows off my waist is also great, but I'm a bit of a short ass so maxi dresses are hit and miss, hence why I'm starting the search now!

@happyharpy78 Thanks, have never heard of that site, will have a look!!

How about this? Can’t vouch for quality but the design looks lovely

I'm in France too and not great at buying clothes online as I like to see what the fabric feels like. I sometimes find things I like at Cache Cache or Carnaby, was very upset the Cameo shut forever!

Lots of lovely suggestions, thanks so much!! I love the Rihoas one, I think that's the "vibe" I'm looking for but prefer something floaty, maybe.

@Lemonchord It's difficult, I don't have many big shops near me besides Zara and I'm not liking their stuff lately! Didn't think of Cache Cache though, will have a look!

I hear you, we are totally in the sticks too! Good luck!
