Please S&B help me find a dress! It’s my 50th in a month (gulp) and I have a dress in mind for my party. it’s high neck, really quite short, slightly balloon sleeves. Ideally in gold, dark green, or black. I’ll be styling it with a chic updo, smokey eyes, nice diamonds and really chunky boots.

Budget isn’t a major concern; I usually shop at Anthropologie, Reformation, cos and Arket but haven’t found anything there. Oh, and I’m 5ft10 and a bit fat but with excellent legs.

Can anyone help?

I think that I might look like the jolly green giant in it 😂

Reiss has a lot of nice looking dresses that might fit the bill? Screenshot of some

The nobody’s child one is almost perfect - in fact I’m probably buying it anyway - but cord feels a bit non-party? The gold Nadine Merabi is gorgeous but I’m at least 30 years and 50lbs from xs!!

The mint velvet one is pretty good; in my head the dress is quite BIBA/Kate Moss iykwim

These are split sleeves, but it definitely says 'PARTY!!'
