Thank you both. Love your thoughts. I’ve no where to go to get dressed up unfortunately at present. Awaiting oldest daughter setting a date. Still loving my Amanda Wakely dress I bought for my sons wedding 14 years ago. It was full length satin in creme/ cafe/ mink blotches cut on bias, so flattering, with a light voile over mink slip on camisole type thing. I put it on occasionally to make me feel good at home!😂.
Just discovering you two and loving it! Personally, I think that a dress which is a real investment, i.e. expensive, gets more mileage when it is a solid colour. Prints are so memorable, it's hard to wear them again and again. Whereas a solid can be greatly changed by different accessories. I particularly appreciated the note about a simple navy sheath as being the perfect foil for a fabulous hat. Please keep these convos coming! So good.
Yes, finding the right undergarments is tough these days. Few stores have a professional bra fitter that really knows their stuff and everything is online but it takes a lot of trying in to find the right fit which makes all the difference in clothes looking and fitting correctly top to bottom.

Have you consider mature bride dress… I’m doing a vow renewal and was so hard to find an appropriate dress for me
Love Amanda's suggestion to wear a beautiful bra with the backless dress - wondering if a FNF episode could be devoted to lingerie?

Yeah, interested to know about the kind that resemble tattoos.
The best dressed at the Sussex wedding was Lady Kitty Spencer. Sublime. Remember the actress and the polka dots - didn’t like it at all.
