Best place to buy an "AMAZING" dress?

[geordieminx]

Ok so I'm begging and pleading for the help of the fashion experts on here...

I'm looking for a dress to wear at a wedding... mine but not a "wedding dress".

Ceremony in hotel, 40ish people, meal, casino later. Hotel is a Malmaison, so trendy/gothy chic? The room we are getting married in is black and this kinda colour.

I'm 27, short, will hopefully be a size 10 by then, with good boobs (34d), large thighs and wobbly post child tum.

Ideally I was thinking something long, but this isnt set in stone, I open to all suggestions!

I guess I want to look amazing (ha), cool, sexy but not slutty

Any help, links to websites that I may not have looked at would be appreciated loads.

Try Angela Stone

I know her, she is lovely and she will do whatever you want. Look at some of the non-bridal stuff she has done too

Coast, the best lovely dresses, ever!
Or try Karen Millen (if the shops have not gone into administration, I am not v up to date, still in post-baby fashion vacuum).
Congratulations on your impending nuptials!

Wow to angela stone CD - some of her stuff is amazing... unfortunately she is about 500 miles away... but I could travel

this is nice

I'd get a complete Marni or Dries Van Noten outfit if it were me.

gm your wedding sounds fab, are you actually going to a casino later or having a fun one at the hotel?
link to hotel please

gothy chic?

wasn't sure what "this colour" was with the black, was it purply? if so i give you purple gothy chic that one's a proper corset so would deal with your tummy too

here is the hotel

here is the room - its a champagene bar

Mileni - that was kinda the thing I had in mind, but not as gothy, as I'm as far from goth as you could possibley imagine.

I am thinking purples/golds as a "scheme" as such though.

Song bird - off to a casino I think, married in the champagne bar, have 2 rooms hired, 1 sits 40 for the meal, the other sits 12, so is going to have sofas to chill out and cages for the kids!

Nice purple one here

Budget?
What kind of colouring are you?

Hmmm budget, I dont really have one to be honest, ideally £400 or less, have no problem with ebay/second hand.

Have dark browny/red hair, green eyes and tanned skn.

maxi
long

more unconventional
def goth
will fight you for it

marni dresses half price

here
Can't see anything weddingy or gothy chic
more sacks really

wow that place looks great!
wish i was coming.

i think cerise and lime would look amazing with those colours

are you having bridesmaids and flowers?

wow i love that black on from mileniwmffalcon
thats lovely.

How about silver, way over budget but this is beautiful

or this (more in budget) black and silver

or lighter purple which would tone nicely

i love this

drool
slinky
not sure how you'd feel about black

Love the gree one you linked to Yeahbut - havent looked at the others yet.

No bridesmaids, flowers probably but havent got that far yet!

(((((((((Runs off to look at the others}}}}}

Spitspot -love all 3 of them... the coast one was one of my first favourites, altough they havent got it in stock in my size. The Alexander McQueen one is amazing - although I wish I hadnt looked at it - over budget I can do, £1500 I wont cant

The style of the blue on that you linked to is very "me" songbird, I'm hourglass, with a good bust that is often on display!

I really like the black Amanda Wakely one too - I'm quite happy to wear black, its all inside so wouldnt look out of place IYKWIM

I hadnt thought of cerise/lime but you are right, I am a cerise person!

Sorry I just couldnt resist the McQueen one. You might be able to get the Coast one in store - worth a phone call maybe?
