What do I wear?
[I'm overweight]
Feeling a bit lost
I have one custom dress I wore too many times to count
and none of my other outfits are enough fancy
I'm a size 54

If you buy something new, keep in mind that you it’s probably going to be a Sheva brachos dress/outfit for you too.
But, it doesn’t have to be fancy. Simple and classic is elegant too.
The store Beauti-full in Monsey goes up to size 54

You might find something here and have a dressmaker fix the front so it's appropriate. Mazal Tov! |

Mazel Tov! I'm just one size smaller than you, and I just wore a simple but elegant black dress to my son's tnoyim. I have found that buying up a size and having a seamstress do some minor alterations so that the fit is right for me helps a lot. Also, make sure your shaitel is fresh, your makeup is perfect and your shoes are elegant. It goes a long way when the dress isn't very fancy.
Where do you live? Based on that we may be able to help you more.

I think your best bet would be to take a simple black dress that looks good on you and then go to the trimming store with a maven and you can really dress it up like that. It may end up costing a nice amount, but you'll have a dress that you will feel comfortable in and it will look really good. Bhatzlocha! and Mazel Tov!!

I own this one, and its quite flattering.
Also try kiyonna. You'll need to fill in the neckline, but they have nice dresses.
