Best place to buy an "AMAZING" dress?

145 replies

geordieminx · 09/02/2009 11:20

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.

second row, 4th in.

Its not until October ..excited? Me? Noooooooooooooo.

The actual ceremony is in the veuve-clicquot bar... which is one of my favourite things, to go with the fabby food.

I just wish I could have all of these dresses delivered to my house to try them all on, pick the best and send the rest away.
