Please help me find a smart outfit that allows breastfeeding

I need an outfit for a family wedding - a dress would be lovely but otherwise a nice black or white top I can wear with a pink skirt.

I’m 4 months pp so looking for an outfit that will allow breastfeeding - so ideally a “nursing” dress/top but I’m finding these are generally “maternity/nursing” so come up a bit baggy, or they’re made baggy, or they’re too casual.

Alternatively, a dress / top with buttons or straps that pull down would work.

I’m a size 8 with quite a small waist so prefer something a bit fitted rather than baggy. My style is generally Ted Baker / French Connection / Phase Eight sort of style.

Im really struggling to find an outfit. Any help would be appreciated!

I would go with a faux wrap dress or top in a jersey stretchy material, then a lace camisole/vest top underneath. That way you can do the 'one up one down' method...I.e. pull the dress down, but vest top up to cover the top of your boob. Not sure if I've explained that clearly!

This particular dress is out of stock, but gives you an idea of what I mean...
