Alternative wedding outfit! Must look good with wellies and be camping friendly.

Help!
Guests likely to be dreadlocked middle class hippy types.
Actual wedding taking place in old mansion house so would prefer not to wear wellies the whole time.

What about Uttam or Yumi Popular with Kate Moss etc and can be dressed up or down.

Ah we need SO much more info!

Your size, shape, colouring for a start. Your usual style, likes and dislikes.

Your budget?

size 16 (although getting smaller)
shape pear/apple
colouring - scottish white
long brown hair
i like pattern and colour although look good in black.
budget schmudget!
not really. high street prices only.

note namechange mid thread.
must stop doing that.

You need something vintage that looks like Granny could have worn it, and a string of pearls. Contrast with wellies is good. Toast perhaps?

Ooh no, forget toast, just had a look at their current collection and all the dresses are foul. Hang on, I'll be back...

i like the pattern on this uttam dress

but the style is all wrong.
too short, too puffy around the middle etc.

Uttam black dress in DP?

here

Damn ,Lulubee, but you're good at this!

Or maybe a bit more classic, like this

yup nice.
would need to wear a cardi though.

Fanks

Dress code: smart, bright colours and hats of all types. It could be muddy and wobbly.

ooh that's purdy.
maybe a bit pale for me though. i do better in stronger colours.

The [[http://www.uttamdirect.com/item.php?code=T1051 Uttam dress] is here too, and also in another colour, but think the black is better.

I've got that red dress in blue - it's loooooovely, and very flattering. Wedding sounds fab!

I bought a pair of these yesterday. They would look good perhaps in this context? (assume you are guest and not bride) Hunters do white wellies now for brides...

I can't link to that Utam dress? Want to seee!

I love the fabric on this dress, not sure if you're happy with strapless?

ta-da

they have some nice welly patterns on there.

what red dress bint?

i have a dress similar to that in brighter colours, with optional straps and a shrug.
forgot about it.
i'll go try it on.

nope, my monsoon dress isn't cool enough.
i look like an oversized fairy.

Dress should be slightly above the knee to look good with wellies I think, and also chiffon/floral is a good contrast...

the look

but the dress must be knee length

simple purple dress?

boden?
