As for me, I love the first Anthropologie dress which is a halter style patterned dress. Really pretty.

Is there a style of dress that you feel compliments you best? Like, I always wear sheath because it makes me look slimmer and is comfortable. I just get something dressier in that style when needed.

I recently wore something similar to this:

I find Adrianna Papell dresses to be universally flattering.

what about something like this?

Please select a non-black dress for the wedding. I promise you that eyebrows will be raised by the parents and grandparents, and since you'll be in wedding photos, it's best to follow conventional wedding dress guidelines.

Rent the Runway might be a good option. Here are some that come in 18/20 that might be good:

Thanks everyone! I look best in A-line dresses because I’m an Apple shape, with a big chest and nice legs.

I do like that first Antro dress! It didn’t come up when I searched for some reason.

I like dresses like these, but would rather spend less than $250. My niece is getting married too, in spring. So trying to not spend a fortune on one or the other…
