summer wedding

lilydonoghue

What's the fashion for a summer wedding guest this year does anybody know. I'm middle aged and a size 18-20. Usually wear trousers all the time so don't have much of a clue about dressing up but of course want to look nice for the wedding day

@purplecow1977 Can you please share the retailer/brand of the dresses so as to help the OP source it?

Thanks

That red dress is gorgeous! And I usually steer clear of red. Where can you get this purplecow?

EDIT: If you ever see a photo of something and want to know where it's from, open Google Images & drag the image into the search box. This almost always works for me if I ever see something I like and don't know where it's from

Sorry sorry I should know better.
They're both from Dorothy Perkins.
They are fab.
I would link but on phone.
Hope you can find them on site alright.

I think I'm too fat for both of those. (depressed)

Join the club! I could only DREAM of looking good in that red one.
The first one though, I think would be nice. The belt in the middle is in the right place to flatter us larger ladies. The colour is probably brighter than I'd like, but we can't hide forever! Correct underwear can streamline you and that dress really is lovely. Suppose it depends on how much it 'stick's at the hips and thighs but that would depend on the material.
