Fuck what I can I wear to this wedding?

[dumpydumpydumpdump]

Son getting married this summer. Her mum is 6ft and slender. She's going to look incredible as MOB

I am short, fat (22-24) and with massive boobs. Like huge!

Feeling a bit panic stricken now.
Don't even know what I want to wear let alone find it.

I like patterns but don't want to look like upholstered armchair.
Like most colours, complexion is fair, mousy hair.

No overt cleavage on show. Calves also fecking hug3 so not too short.

Maybe hat. But I look silly in anything small because of massive boobs and tummy.

Arse also size of a small country.

I am perfectly happy with my size mostly, certainly no motivation to starve. But wtf am I going to wear? I'm going to let him down by looking fucking awful. I jus5 want something chic and comfortable.

Budget - not bothered. I was going to look at bombshell but they gone bust. All the MOB/MOG stuff seems to be for thin elegant Carole Middleton types. Love Carole btw. But I need something for a Miriam Margoles shape.

I saw a lovely mother of the groom last year, large boobs, probably size 20ish, wearing a gorgeous blue jumpsuit. It looked very modern, very glamorous, and it really suited her.
Sorry I have no idea where it was from!

Dress. Hat. Smart shoes. Like everyone else. You look like you. You are there because of your relationship to those involved not because you are expected to be some catwalk model family.

Hi OP. I know your pain. My lovely ds is getting married in summer too and in an ideal world I'd lose 4 st and look gorgeous. Ain't happening!

My plan is to lose weight - cutting my carbs which always helps - but otherwise I know I can get a dress I like from Scrlett and Jo. That's given me some confidence and scope.

I'm the other end of the height scale too - 5'10'' with long arms. Anything not regular is just so hard!

Was here to recommend this brand - I have a couple dresses and they're fun and easy to wear.

Leely do some larger sizes and some of the dresses can be custom made to your measurements and height. Definitely worth checking the site out. It's wedding focused.

How about this? As mog you aren't expected to be as full on as mob.

I liked MOG R.I.P 🐱

Personally I would go for a column of colour and then a loose kimono jacket
V neck top
Palazzo trousers
Wedge peeptoes
Get something made and tailored to you
A good fitting bra and some shapewear undies

You could have a column of maybe a Teal colour or a Nude/Cream and then a kimono/duster with a a few colours and then accessories to match one of the colours and a mani/pedi to match the other?

My lovely Aunt had similar to this combo, she's about a size 28/30 and short of stature and she looked gorgeous for my cousins wedding
Wedges were comfy rather than feeling unbalanced on heels

Mounjaro . . .

Rude!

That sounds a bit frumpy and ageing for the OP

Not sure where you live @dumpydumpydumpdump but I bought my MOB outfit form Wedding Pearls in the midlands. They specialise in plus size and made the choice a pleasure when I was dreading it. Also have a look on Facebook at preloved wedding and occasion outfits. Lots of plus size and you can search by size. If you want a teal dipped hem dress with navy hat message me!

I just clicked on to suggest Scarlet and Jo too. The dresses are fab. They come in fab colours and they are so comfortable to wear. They are also ideal if you have a bigger bust.

Just a thought, but if you're stuck for ideas, maybe go and try some hats first and find one you really love and work down from there?
There's an amazing hat hire shop in my town that has hats in every possible size, shape, style, colour. PM me for details if you're anywhere near Gloucestershire.
Wearing a fabulous hat in colour that really suits you can make you feel a million dollars!

Shift type dresses from Wallis, Hobbs, Principles, Phase Eight. They do simple but elegant lace shifts which you can dress up with a chanel type jacket ( m n s)and glam bag and jewellery and hat/fascinator.

I was going to suggest Scarlett and Jo too.

When I was a size 24/26 they were great for me for weddings. I also have a large bust and i'm 5ft 3in and I felt amazing in them.

Thick waistband, supportive bust, flows in the right places and lots of colours and patterns to choose from too

Plain colour, no hat excentuate your boobs. You'll look fab

@Maddy70

Maybe. Not necessarily. Maybe. Not necessarily. Yes!

If you end up going for a very simple shift dress, OP, I would go for a pattern (either large floral or abstract) rather than a plain colour to break up your silhouette a bit.

I would think about footwear and start from there. There will be a lot of standing around. There’s no way I could stand around all day in heels and pinchy toe shoes without crying and they won’t be tears of joy.

And everyone telling the OP to lose weight, off you pop, don’t waste time getting your coats, out the door bye now.

This green dress is gorgeous.

Throw money at professional hair / make up as well. It will help you feel more confident on the day.
