Hen do outfit ideas

[Wiennetta]

I’m off to a hen do next month and want to dress up a bit (to give an idea of what sort of level of smart - we are going for posh afternoon tea and other activities/cocktails).

I’m usually pretty casual but love clothes - I have lots of lovely jackets, jeans, trousers and knitwear. I’m not really a casual dress wearer.

I’d love some ideas of something to wear that’s dressed up - open to dresses but longer ones as don’t like to show my legs. But I’m feeling very uninspired by floral maxi dresses. And (no offence to them!) but I think a lot of the other women will be in floral maxi dress and sandals type outfits.

Maybe trouser suit or co-ords?

I’m tall 5ft10 and size 8-10, small boobs. Budget maybe £100. I wouldn’t need shoes, accessories etc as have loads/can borrow something if needed!

thank you!!

Love this and not floral

These tops and trousers look lovely, especially if smaller chested and slim

Waistcoat and trousers are very on trend

thank you! Really like the first dress @Petesdragoness and the polka dot dress @Britpopbaby. Having a browse online now 😁

Just some different options here...

I'm 50, 5ft 11 and a 12 top/14 bottom, I love wide leg trousers or palazzo jeans and a fitted sleeveless waistcoat, I just feel more comfortable in something structured. Maybe with some lowish wedges, smart white trainers or chunky flat sandals.
I'm not into florals, I don't mind block colour maxi dresses but they have to be long enough, not that weird mid-calf length that looks a bit odd and frumpy on me.
