    So after being married almost 6 months *yaaay* i'm on the hunt for a bridesmaid dress. no, i'm not getting married again :) It's for me! I get to be part of my high school friends wedding!! so happy for her!

    She wants us to be in a shade of either pink or purple and vintage looking dress. my problem is where can i find such a dress for a "not so slim figure". Most sites I've seen only cater towards a slimmer figure. Me being between a 8-10 pant size am not having much luck! any help is appreciated :)

    Perhaps you can find a new dress that's got vintage touches- ie lace or you could add a brooche, maybe a bolero or belt.

    I know Alfred Angelo, David's Bridal and Dessy have plenty of sizes.  Or just check out where you normally shop.

    I think with the right accessories, you could really make a dress look vintage.

    How vintage does she want?  Because there are a lot of cuts that look very Jackie O.

     

    These kind of look 60s/70s vintage:

    These have a vintage feel:
