Help me find a dress for my 50th birthday party

I’m 50 in a few weeks time and we’re having an open house/garden bbq for friends and family. All quite casual and relaxed. I want to wear something special/different, but am struggling to find anything I like. Thinking of a dress or jumpsuit, suitable with flat sandals or adidas gazelles. I like Oliver Bonas and Joanie, happy with bold colours and prints. Not a dedicated follower of trends, but I wear a lot of wide leg styles at the moment. I’m 5’ 7 and 70kg, size 12 but a bit of a tummy. Don’t want to be sleeveless, but I have good legs, though rather white as I’m pale/freckly. Budget perhaps up to £200 for the right thing.

Thank in advance!

How about Nobodys Child

this red jumpsuit looks fab

Hate jumpsuits. How does one pee? Most useless thing ever made by a man for a woman.

If you like Joanie and want something a bit special, how about this? www.broraonline.com/uk/polka-dot-shirt-dress-rosehip-dd8549km8578?queryID=884dc98d5833f9780af405fdeae940cd
