My vote is for the second one. It's that little bit different, cheerful colour & flattering. Although my father always said you can't beat a little black number, which is true. Whichever you chose you will look a million dollars x

Love the first cut velvet leopard dress, although you think it is too long! The colours are lovely with your hair and skin tone, and it’s a very flattering shape, also love the sleeves! Or……the black dress with the pleated skirt. Very flattering, never go wrong with black. Also love the silver dress. Flattering shape and gorgeous with your hair! Looking at them all again, my opinion would be to wear the silver dress!! You’ll look stunning! Enjoy the party. Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦

You looked beautiful in all the dresses! Choose the one you feel your best and most comfortable. 😘

Helen, I REALLY do appreciate you sharing the tips and reminders about photographs….in the world we live in today where everyone has a camera I think it is an important skill to master….your advice was spot on and invaluable and as you said, it is not about vanity, it’s about participating and enjoying and being supportive of the people and the event that is being preserved in pictures.❤

Really good advice Helen regarding mother of the bride. I thought the second dress was the most flattering and fitted your figure well. I would definitely recommend shoulder pads for all the dresses. I wouldn’t be without them. They really help balancing your shape.The blue dress and the last dress were the best colour I don’t know why you liked the black velvet dress. It dragged you down and wasn’t very festive. I love all the jewellery ,who wouldn’t. X

Hi Helen: Michigan here. The shimmery, slate gray dress is very flattering and slimming and not overtly Christmasy, if you are concerned about that. It’s the most elegant on you. However, when you put the wine-colored dress on, your face came alive! You might consider it, as you said, over narrow black pants/leggings with the self belt. It is SO flattering! You could wear either to the party. Beads and sequins are everywhere this season and not restricted to holiday parties.

Hi Helen, love the last black dress….so elegant and the wine tunic with sequins also lovely and your nail varnish the same colour!🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿xx

Some great dresses Helen reasonably priced too, loved the burgundy sparkly at the end on you especially! 🎉xxx

Mounir certainly has a “selection collection”! Such lovely mix and match pieces. The burnout velvet is outstanding!! No way is it too long. The other two velvet dresses are my next favorite choices for you. The royal blue makes you sparkle and the black is so classy. Enjoy your 🎉 party! 😊

Love the haul. Loved the black and the royal blue dress really suited you,❤️❤️

The black one looks the best Helen. I’ve been watching your lovely videos for a while and felt I was cheating! I have now subscribed… and still think the black one’s the best. xx

I like both the leopard print dresses (although as you say, the first one does look rather long) and the Sosander dress. All look very flattering. My daughter is getting married May 2024 and such good advice Helen, thank you ☺️

Like the second dress very flattering Helen .Black dress really lovely x

I love the royal blue dress on you. The colour is striking. The jewellery is perfect for it too.

Hi Helen great tips in that video even if your not the mother of a bride or groom ,and yes sitting in the dress that’s fine standing up ??? Can cause a problem .Thank you for that ,looking forward to what’s coming next xxC

Hi Helen, I loved you in the royal blue dress and also the black. The sosander dress was also lovely on you, but my favourites were the tu dresses.

The last one is the best, looks lovely X

I like the second leopard dress, anything black and royal blue. ❤ Gorgeous as always!

I agree about the shoulder pads. I'm never without them. They sell them in Dunelm at the haberdashery dept. I loe.the second one. Its.very flattering. X

Love the second dress on you Helen. Fits lovely and the colour is gorgeous with the flattering v neck. Some lovely jewellery on and you’re done.

We love the red dress at the end nice colour suits you very well!

Love the royal blue dress! Everyone's going to be dressed for Christmas, why not stand out and wear your favorite color? No matter what you chose I'm certain you'll look great!

I loved the second leopard print dress and the royal blue dress. They both looked good on you Helen! xx

I love the first one. You looked lovely in it. TBH, you looked lovely in them all.

Royal blue stunning. You look very pretty in it Helen. Jumped out at me xx

Really liked the Sosander dress on you and the black velvet dress with the pleats. The last sparkly dress is such a lovely colour and a nice change from gold or silver.

Hi Helen, another great video. My personal fave on you was the first one, you look absolutely stunning in it, I found it the most flattering on you and the colour was unusual xxx😊

They all look good but I like the last one best. It’s not too over powering being that little bit shorter…..and it’s a great colour! X

Love the silver wrap dress and the black velvet v neck with lovely puff sleeves on the wrist. 😊

I’m so glad you mentioned subscribing to your channel.. After watching you for absolutely ages now I was convinced I had subscribed. Just checked and wasn’t subscribed…am now!

I like the blue and reckon that's comfortable for dancing and a bit cooler. I love a sequin too. I noticed they have a skirt in Primarni for £15. I got a lovely velvet wrap dress in Asda that I am thrilled with. It is nice when you get something you love. Xx

The silver wrap dress was my fav❤

You look amazing! My fav is the blue dress Happy Christmas to you x

Hi Helen, my favourite is the grey shimmer wrap, very elegant! X

Ahhh, the dresses! Favorite look for me was the first one. SO flattering. So chic! Wear bold earrings or a bold necklace, but not both. Or your usual jewelry style is always classic and chic. Then, liked the black dress with great sleeves and long pleated skirt was stylish and a definite contender. Finally, the burgundy sequined number was a festive, yet understated and glamorous look. Have you any wide leg sequined dress pants in a dark silver sequins/satin and low heels with a pointed toe? That could be stunning! Lastly, excellent thoughts and example of how to stand! What a difference this made! Thank you, Helen!

I loved the silver grey dress.

I loved the first dress, Helen; it's stunning on you but I agree that's it's too long. My second choice is the silver wrap dress, also very lovely on you. All dresses were very nice, but I think these 2 are the best party choices. Enjoy your evening out!

Second dress looked fabulous on you, I'd coose that one for you! 😊

I think you can wear all and any of them!!!!! I agree with all of your comments regarding necklines . Gorgeous as always xxx❤️

Helllooo Helen, I think the second dress really suited you. I've mentioned Klass, Anna Rose dresses to you before, but you thought they were too flowery. If you look at their mesh embellished midi dresses, I think you'll agree that they would suit you; V neck and 3 quarter length sleeves and not a flower in sight! Lol.

I like them all, but my favourite by a long chalk has to be the blue dress as it suits you so well and is a lovely party dress for Christmas.

Hi Helen, loved the royal blue and the black dress all the others looked big on you. The Mounir collection is lovely especially the pearls with the blue stone & the earrings. Definitely will be having a look. Xxxxx

Loved the last dress the red one x

Hi Helen, I loved the blue and black velvet ones,the length is perfect. ❤

Hi Helen, you look gorgeous in all the dresses, all very flattering on you, but my favourites are the 2nd dress you showed, and the silver grey Sosandar dress. Thank you for this as you’ve given me some inspiration. 💕

Hi Helen love both the royal blue …… your eyes !!!! and the black velvet dress ( anywhere LBD) . I’m sure you’ll look amazing whichever dress you chose .

HB. The black dress - perfect! Another thing about mothers of the bride or groom and it applies to guests as well, don’t wear your hat on the back of your head, it makes it look as though you’ve been blown by the wind; wear it forward! Great video, Helen, thank you.

I liked the black and royal blue dresses on you Helen. Thanks for the photo tips . x

The second dress, the fourth dress and the black velvet with the detail on the sleeves were my personal favourites. You suit the wrap dresses as they show your figure. In the end as you say , you do you, I’ll do me ha ha x thanks for the photograph tips. Oh, and I will definitely try the tights xx

I liked the sliver dress with the wrap and both velvet dresses all looked good on you. That blue is my favourite colour. Xx

The second one is lovely 😊

Love the red one!!!

I liked the leopard and blue dresses on you. The V neck really suits you as does the A line, this is just my humble opinion. I had my eye on the chocies to your right.🤦‍♀️. I hope you get to your 18k subs….im watching the numbers too….

I liked the dark Gray silver wrap dress that's my favourite, then the blue velvet dress helen , the jewellery is so nice helen, it is what I would buy ,reading the comments and it looks like we all have different favourites, 😊❤

Hi Helen . I liked all the dresses on you , bar the first one . I think colours suit you best . But the black dress looked so comfy & elegant . Good luck with your choice . 🤞. Those were good tips for photos 👍.

Blue velvet is my favourite on you Helen xx

I like the black dress with the round neck (probably because i dont like v necks) and the second dress, the colour apricot/ginger is flattering on your skin and the black is very Liz Taylor. The blue is a lovely colour on you. Overall I think the blue is beautiful..

Really liked the black dress with the sparkles in the fabric. I know you said you didn't like the neckline but I think it makes the dress classy. All you need is a long necklace. To me it's a keeper.

Lovely haul Helen . Love them all apart from the blue one. Thank you for sharing xx

Hi Helen, lovely selection of dresses, surprisingly I like the blue tired dress best. Good tips on posing. Thank you 😊

Helen…definitely the mock wrap dress…lovely neckline ….a winner..x

Black dress would be my only choose.

Hi Helen, I've said a few times before, that I think the best colour for you is black, but the blue one was a lovely colour on you too. My favourites were the last 2 you tried on. I would wear the black dress for the party and the red sparkle for Christmas day. Hope you enjoy the party.

Love both dresses ❤

Hi Helen hope your well .Always look forward seeing the goodies you spy out to show us .love the silver wrap dress really suits you and yes very elegant 😊..the shirred cuffs are so comfy ,I have a couple of dresses with that detail.love a sequin Helen .....GORGEOUS 😊

Love the black dress ❤

Hi Helen, thank you for showing the dresses I absolutely love Velvet the Blue Dress was lovely on you & the Black Dress with the beautiful cuff detail was gorgeous. I think you should definitely keep these & wear the Black one either for Christmas or the Party! Take care, love to all 💖💜 XX

Definitely the last black dress nice fit and party vibes.

The black sheered sleeve dress is perfect x

The black velvet dress is definitely a winner! ❤ xx

Hi Helen. The black velvet v neck is the one. Second choice the blue velvet and then the silver grey. Have a great time.

I would wear the black and silver wrap type skirt/dress, towards the end of the video. You look beautiful in them all!

Personally I think the royal blue looks fab and more youthful on you. i love it!

Hi, Helen. I loved the black dress you liked (with the V-neck and the longer sleeves) and the silver pleated one. Both of those looked lovely on you and would be appropriate for lots of other occasions. Hope you enjoy that party! Take good care. Blessings from California XXX

It will be interesting to see which of these you choose to wear to the party. My favorite was the wine sequined dress, worn as a shift - definitely not too short! The only one I didn't like was the blue velvet - the color was harsh, and the style looked at little matronly to me. I like the second dress, but would prefer it a little shorter. The silver/grey wrap was also very flattering.

The blue velvet dress. My mum who was a keen and city and guilds qualified sewer used to say that the pile should go upwards as the colour is richer that way. I, like you, prefer it going down as it is less likely to "seat" or mark that way.

Like the festive graphics. Both great, but second one, looks good. I’ve started videoing myself to check outfits, what a shock, thought I was a super model, more like a tent model ha ha, good tip x

Love the second dress. I think it would look stunning with a black sequin jacket😊

I liked both of the dresses you tried for the party you always look nice

Helen you will look absolutely lovely in any dress you choose 👍🏻. Loved the tips at the end of your video, the photographer at my sons wedding was really good and told us how to stand, only thing I regret is that I never wore tights, but it was August and so hot in Jasper - should have worn them when I looked at the photos - but it was a fantastic day tights or no tights 😊

Loved the first 2 dresses . I wish I had the advice about weddings before 😊😮

I like both of them Helen. Ooooo that black one is nice!!

My favourites were the 2nd leopard dress, the silver grey plisse one and the burgundy one at the end, but you looked nice in all of them Helen. I thought the royal blue one was a bit frumpy looking, sorry 😮. Hope you have a good week lovely ❤ xx

I love the first dress, looks so well on you. They are all beautiful dresses.

I like the second animal print and the blue dresses best on you. The blue one goes lovely with the jewellery.

Helen your so glamour none of these dresses are flattering on you your far too cool to be seen in them stay safe stay beautiful❤🍸

Dearest Helen, Hello You shine in blue, amazing. The classic 20's style jewelry is fabulous. No wonder you turn heads. I shall say no more except for Toodles 🎉🎉

Hi the black velvet definitely looks the best and more useful, for occasions. Thank you for sharing 😅

My vote is for the blue or black velvet. Both look elegant on you.

Some beautiful items..love the long animal print first dress. Silver and the black pleated definitely 😊

Well the first 4 where no go for me for you. Then the blue, yes yes, your colour. Then the black one really a winner, and then you topped it with the red. You have a flair to get the right things. ❤

And, the last sequined dress worn as a dress could look very nice as a dress on you with opaque black tights with an over the knee, low-heeled boot. Jazz it up with a sparkly black jet lariat necklace. (I purchased stretchy black Vivaia over the knee boots with low block heels, which work, even though heels are in my past. I am US size 22/24 and 5’7” and currently cannot wear normal calf-width boots, but those over the knee boots fit even me!)

The grey shimmer wrap fits you like a glove beautiful dress that I have it too but from river island I wear mine with a silver belt and the wrap tie belt flat on the side mine was £8.50 new with tag from vinted lol

Love the 4th dress and red sparkle tunic dress. ❤

2nd dress is a lovely fit. I like the first one although you would need to shorten it a little. Like the shimery metallic dress. The black velvet is a keeper.xx

Hi Helen, You look so elegant in the second leopard dress I only suit v necks too you also looked lovely in the last black dress a little tip my mum taught me she was a wonderful tailer made top quality clothing I take a little black shearing elastic and make round necks into v necks I had a vintage suit but looked a little old fashioned so I did the neck then the cuffs and the middle of the hem the complements I got was amazing I love making different things anyway you look elegant in almost all you try on and really love those boots I’m only a size 2 shoe so find it very difficult to buy shoes I always buy shoes in France and Italy as they seem to have smaller feet my daughter is a size 8 anyway thanks for sharing have a lovely week x

Like both black dresses❤ think the long sleeved one is my choice!! Xxx

The blue velvet is gorgeous on you!

I like them all but especially the red one 😊

Helen, I like the Royal blue and the long sleeved (with cuffs) black dress. Thanks 😊
