I`ve been invited to a very posh evening party in June - dress code "Summer frocks or party wear". I`m 60, 5ft 6ins and about a size 16 (dress pattern size) with not much of a bust and no defined waist (plus a tummy). What style to go for?
Oh - I`m not keen on the tops of my arms (bingo wings) and I`d quite like it to be long (so I don`t have to fake tan my legs).
In my stash I`ve got some gorgeous poplin weight cotton sateen - with a sort of abstract very large flower design (looks better than it sounds) which I would like to use
Any ideas what style I should go for? If you can actually recommend a pattern that would be brilliant
(The party giver`s business is wealth management in London and I don`t want to feel like a country bumpkin!)
