Wedding Guest Dress help!

Hello wise Mumsnetters I need some help!

Where can I look for a flattering dress for a wedding in November?

The wedding is in a barn style setting, end of November in the UK.

I'm 37, 5ft 8ins and a size 16-18. I have dark hair (if that helps!) the bridesmaids are in a dark forest green so need to avoid that colour.

If anyone knows of any hidden gems or shops/online retailers who cater for my kind of height and size please let me know, I'm struggling to find anything I like!

Price range?

I bought a dress from Scarlett and Jo for a wedding, same size. Also had a dress for an event from silk Fred. Both under £100

I'd say up to about £100 however would stretch that if I found one I really loved!

Thanks I'll check those out and see what I can find x

My go to places would be Phase eight, Boden and/or Hobbs for a decent dress. If you’re feeling very extravagant you could look at LK Bennett - might get something in their sale.

Gosh, that is really nice. Monsoon can be very hit and miss, but that's lovely.
