[quote=Anonymous]OP here - I appreciate all the suggestions! Especially the concern about dress length and seating.

I carry my belly weight lower, thanks to a nearly full-term twin pregnancy and c-section, which makes many of the belted options that have fuller/flared skirts possibilities. Sheaths or anything more fitted through the hips just won't work anymore. Also makes it more challenging to find pants that are appropriate and flattering. I have a couple of standby blazer ponte pant combos that have worked well for winter due to the wider legs and stretchy waistlines.

A PP's suggestion of a Nic & Zoe dress from Nordstrom reminded me that I have a couple of their pieces and they fit well. I saw this dress:

It's a silhouette that works well for me. My arms are decent. I worry about temperature, though. I sometimes feel frumpy in cardigans. But think a blazer might be too much?

I love the jumpsuit a pp suggested, but always think those are better for tall, thin people. I have size D breasts that can fill the bodice of something like that and make the proportions look off. Also, practically speaking, taking the whole thing off to use the toilette seems like  a lot of work!

You've all given me great suggestions to consider. [/quote]
