Help me find a christening outfit

DS is getting christened next month and I’ve just realised I have nothing to wear. It will be fairly casual but I’d still like to look nice. I’m 5ft 3 and a size 18. I have huge boobs and a bit of a belly but do have a waist that needs to be defined (former hourglass turned apple). Ideally it should be suitable for breastfeeding but this is negotiable. I’m blonde and pale (analysed as a light summer) and hate beiges and creams or colours that make me look washed out. Budget is around £100 not including accessories but could be a little flexible.

I wore a wrap dress from Jojo Maman Bebe for both of mine because of the breastfeeding requirement. Smart but comfy too.

Thank you. I always feel that a wrap dress she like suit me but they never quite sit right. Do do so they end up really low cut so I have to wear a cami underneath which spoils the line and makes my bust look really matronly.

I quite liked this dress and would have tried it but they don’t have my size www.next.co.uk/style/ls417954/B87949#B87949

What about this? I’d probably need to sew it up a bit www.next.co.uk/style/ls431182/n25620#n25620
