Apparently Monsoon have a petite range. This dress would be gorgeous for weddings:
That is seriously gorgeous

That is a lovely dress. It wouldn't suit me at all though, unfortunately. Highlighting the tummy with a bow and then being flat accross the bottom of the tummy would reveal extreme wobbliness in that area and the hip area.
I feel like you keep putting up suggestions and I keep disregarding them
I don't mean it that way, it's just my experience in trying to find something that looks good on me.

Looks like the bottom half is back to front on the dummy.And look at this one, from the Minuet petite range. Gorgeous!

Oh god no! Imagine that on a size 18. It's beautiful if you're a size 8, but on me it would bulge in an unsightly manner.

I think that colour would be difficult to wear if you're pale.
Yes, that was definitely good advice.

Control pants?

Someone's already offered to do that for you.

Yes you do.
I tried on a jumpsuit yesterday thinking it would look dreadful but what the hell. It looked great! Better than some of the things I thought would definitely suit me.

I do have a pair of control pants (wore them for my wedding 
) and I agree - they are great. I will get some more.
Tell you what, I'll go to Westfield tomorrow, wearing my control pants, and I hereby vow to try on stuff that I might usually disregard. Including that green dress if they have it.
And maybe, if it's free, I'll ask for a personal shopper

High Empress of Dressing Up
I have started a blog for you, missfran - but in the meantime -
Deep V necks
babydoll-shaped dresses (should fit you like a regular empire line)
oh and get thee some wrap dresses and a sewing machine to take them up.
They are mostly very straight atr the bottom and therefore easy to take up.
nothing at all high necked. absolutely no t shirts, ever.
really busy today (no lunch!) but hopefully msT or someone can explain if any of that sounds odd.

High heels - I struggle with high heeled shoes but I'm OK with high-heeled boots. Give them a try - very sexy!

Thanks Spangles. I do wear v-necks, I like them.
Re: dresses, what length should I be going for?
I like my t-shirts

t-shirts aren't very flattering though especially with a large bust. You're better of with tops that make the best of your boobs rather than covering them up with boring old tees.
That will also detract from any other problem areas like your tummy because everyone will be drawn to your amazing tits.

I personally never ever wear bootcut trousers cuz they go OUT around my hips then in around my knees then OUT at my feet and look ridiculous. They are absolutely nothing like the shape I actually am, and in fact acentuate 'problem' areas (hips/bum and lack of physical stature).

Oh. I thought the bootcut jeans looked nice.
Flat pumps? As in ballet pumps?
They don't
They are trouser for taller people with no real bums and not for the likes of us. This is gospel.Flat pumps but ones with firm soles and a little heel, like a cm. Fashionable and you can run for a bus in them and wear them with socks, whatever is comfy
I think the bootcut jeans would be nice, strait leg dont usually look good on not so slim legs (I know i cant wear them .. im a lot taller than you, but also an 18)
The jumper would have been fine if the V was deeper cut ... make the V as deep as possible & wear a vest top underneath if your not comfy showing off so much clevage ..
