Disenchanted3 · 17/08/2009 15:10

Need a dress and shoes, accesories etc ... for October wedding,

Dark eyes, long black hair. Curvier gal

size 14/16,

Prefer something that covers upper arms but could be cardi / shrug.

Good boobage (with right underwear- Size slightly sagging DD)

Will be wearingfull sucky in underwear.

Always fancied a Dita Von Tease style dress, something very 50s but that will be OK with my size IYKWIM?

Any ideas?

Oh I am also crp with heels, so chunky heels or wedges!

Yes, I agree with the black Julien McDonald one. I'd stay away from the so-called body-con, it's a bit too 'wag' for my liking and it doesn't really stand out.

Ooooh this is so hard

Thank God somebody in this place can link properly

Yeah, I really like that one, nice colour, 50's, girlie and a nice length too.

Hey get yourself on the Shiney diet thread, I'm on there trying to lose a stone for a late September wedding. I bought this dress in black but I look preggers with it on so I need to get rid of the belly

The purple is nice, fab colour! Am totally not sure if it might be too short though, I think it's one you'd need to try on? Maybe?

HolyGuacamole · 17/08/2009 18:32

Nearest I could find was THIS, looks nice but they don't show it in the green

Lulubee · 17/08/2009 19:01

The nicest one I think so far is the Oli emerald green one - it's a nod to 50's goddess without going all rockabilly. Also, the ones with the big skirts make your arse look enormously proportioned unless you're an 8.

Lulubee · 17/08/2009 19:06

Ok this is stunning. With your dark hair and curves you'd look like Nigella.

shoshe · 17/08/2009 20:23

What about this one

shoshe · 17/08/2009 20:25
