Menopausal winter wedding guest dress

Wedding in December and cannot find the right dress!
Size 14 with big boobs and hips with disappearing waistline due to menopause but was once an hourglass.
I don't like high necks but definitely not strapless.
My legs are OK so not maxi or midi.
I was thinking velvet for its warmth as I feel the cold easily but also thinking not good for hot flushes - sweaty?
I want to try and create a waistline and also hold in my mum tum so maybe a wrap style?
I'd love a wrap lace dress but in my price range the lace always looks cheap.
I suit bright jewel colours so looking for red - not wine or burgundy or green or blue, again bright tones of these colours not dark or pastel.
And also, if possible, I want to look elegant not trashy or frumpy!
Please help!!!

Ooh, I love this. Maybe I'll get one for myself.* *[Checks price]...maybe not 😔

I would imagine there’s an enormous amount of DVF clothing available pre-owned.

And the wrap dress must be one of the most copied dresses ever - available at every possible price point.
