I'm a similar size, and this year have bought midi/maxi dresses from White Stuff, Live Unlimited, and Unfolded. Last year I had some from Gudrun Sjoden, M & S, TK Maxx, Muthahood. These are a bit more expensive than supermarkets, but you can often get good reductions in the sales. Fat Face is also worth a look.

  1. Hush - but wait for the sale! Lots drop down to the prices of the places you’ve checked.
  2. Pine and Treasure on Instagram but they do small batches on pre order so it needs patience.
  3. M&S but have to check the fabrics
  4. John Lewis own brand, especially on sale but bad for using polyester

I’ve been having the same dilemma,
actually saw a few nice pieces on Roman online (wouldn’t have ever thought to look as I had it in my head as for an older generation than me, but some lovely pieces!)
Haven't bought any yet so cant say if they compare to how they look online, but planning on putting an order in when I get a chance.
