Hello! I have recently gained some weight and find that none of more formal attire fits quite right anymore. I have a wedding to attend in May and am hoping this group can help with some suggested retailers or specific dresses.
I am now a size ~14 and verrry apple shaped… like, people have congratulated me on my pregnancy 😑 I find the silhouette that looks best on me is tight through the bodice and then flared at the hips/belly. But I am a 40 year old mom and it’s hard to find this shape and not have it look way too young for me. I tend to gravitate toward neutrals but find most of my wardrobe leans “business” and not wedding.
Wedding is cocktail attire and is outdoors at a winery in May in the Midwest (aka it could be 80 degrees and sunny or literally snowing). So something that could look nice with a cardigan or wrap is ideal.
I’d be so grateful for any suggestions. Thank you!
