Outfit for birthday Afternoon tea

2 replies

Ragdoll77 · 04/01/2026 19:04

Its my 50th birthday in February and i'm going for afternoon tea with a group of friends in a lovely 4 star hotel.

I'm a size 14, large bust, 5ft 7 with a bit of a mum tum. I like wearing dresses & have good legs.

Any suggestions for outfits that might suit my body shape? I don't know where to start looking...😪

Just bumping for you as you haven't had any replies yet. I'm a similar height and size to you op. Have you heard of the Starlight dress, from Nobody's Child? It went through a stage of being recommended to death on here, but for a reason I think, as it's the most gorgeous flattering fit. They do that style in short and long sleeves, mini and midi lengths. I currently have the midi, long sleeved version in dark green needle cord.

What's your budget? And colouring? You'll hopefully get more replies with a few added details.

Nobody’s Child are tricky for big busts, unless you don’t mind lots of cleavage though.

Where do you normally shop?
