Dress for summer tipi-type wedding

[Jam177]

Please help! I am attending a tipi wedding in July, with the dress code "formal summer vibes". I haven't had the occasion to dress up properly for over 6 years since my kids were born. I'd love to treat myself & feel fabulous but I'm a bit lost. There is SO much available online I just don't know where to start!

I think I'd like something floaty, colourful, maybe floral. Would need to work ok with flat sandals or wedges. I'm size 10, quite tall with teeny boobs. I am happy to spend up to £200 max.

Any suggestions would be so appreciated! x

Something from Farm Rio.

A maxi dress like this one from Aspiga, perhaps?

By colourful do yo mean quite bright, rather than pastel?

The dress code is a bit conflicting-sounding to me, mind you ... formal AND summer vibes? In a tipi??!! I presume it just means wear a lovely dress not a bikini top & denim shorts ... ie not formal in the accepted sense?

And I presume cotton/silk/linen ideally?

Several different prints, from floral pastel to yellow stripes!

The same dress - there's also a blue version but it somehow looks more casual & a bit wishywashy.

Would agree that's a good choice - though would probably need to look for sale pieces to be under £200? The Outnet has a lot.

Whatever you wear, take layers and a waterproof with you. I went to a teepee wedding last year, and it was quite chilly, windy and there were rain showers.

There are some beauties on The Outnet. OP. As I'd thought, loads of Farm Rio - but several others in your price range too.

And these.

And these ...

Some more ...

Yet more!

And the last ones from The Outnet ...

You're tall, slim & have small boobs, OP - I would make the most of that with a halterneck maxi. Very jealous as my boobs would fight their way out of most of those dresses ...!!!

A couple of LK Bennett dresses reduced hugely on Otrium.

Not usually a Karen Millen fan, but this is cotton & rather lovely!
