Hello, So my mum has decided to get married in 3 WEEKS!!!! Out of the blue.
So now i have to find a size 20 dress that doesnt make me look like a hippo.

My mums wedding dress is below:

Thats a beautiful dress.

NOW don't be going on with the hippo stuff, you just need a dress that flatters your shape hun. Go to debenhams, get the personal shopper to help you. Seriously, you'll look beautiful - especially with the award winning smile xx

Go to a wedding dress shop and ask if they have any bridesmaids dresses on sale or if you can buy one off the peg. It's not easy to match with a coloured wedding dress but for that I would go with a pale blue or even a red!

 

[Taz]

And as Leah said, less of the hippo talk! I don't think Debenhams go up to a 20 in their Debut range, I don't think they even do an 18!

Do you not think red would be bride competing....i want to fade away.....

The wedding shops in Preston only go up to a size 18.

Can you travel to somewhere else? I know my local one that I use for most weddings goes up to a size 32 and usually has a variety of sizes in stock.

 

[Tazzi]

Debut go up to a 22 but look rediculous. My mum is an 18.

Urgh....thanks for planning ahead mum! Lol

Have you tried a 2 piece instead of a dress?

 

[Tazzi]

i did think that but im really stumped on what to wear. Can you wear black??? A short dress with tights and heels??? Ummmm hes wearing a dark grey suit apparently and shes wearing the navy.

I have looked at these online....dont know if they would be any good...or ok?

Monsoon go up to a size 22 maybe have a look in there but they are a bit pricey.

 

[Lisa Marie]

I don't think black would be suitable and I would steer clear of navy if that's what colour your mum's wearing. How about silver grey? Is it a registry office do? if so maybe you could wear a trouser suit.

 

[misscheeky]

hey hun, def try monsoon wallis lots of sales on now so your bound to pick up a bargain aswell. think i would stay clear of blue for def!!

 

[Taz]

Yeah I would avoid navy or black but pale blue or grey would be good

 

[Tazzi]
