I would say John Lewis if you need to try it on (I can understand why), but having had a look at their website, they all look a bit dowdy. M&S appear to have a new range, but they look a bit cheap and cheerful.
It's horrible - basically bullying and a freak show. Half the guys are strung out on heroin (I saw one episode where one of them threw up after hyping up in between rounds). That was enough to put me off. It's preying upon the vulnerable.
Why do they get away with it? Because it's America, it's tv, they're (almost exclusively) gay, and therefore it's ok to put them in a modern day version of the stocks.

There's also a website called littleblackdress which does them (https://www.littleblackdress.co.uk/occasion/cocktail-dresses)
Depends on whether you want to be able to try it on first though.

Pop to Coast or Phase 8.
If you want more cheap and cheerful, pop to a department store I guess, HoF, Debenhams, Lewis's etc.

Surprisingly so. Ordered stuff at 11.30pm, it arrived by 10am.

I think that the pink of the dress would set off the very very pale blueish white of your skin perfectly

ML - you don't go through being married twice and get to the grand old age of 42 without knowing something about shopping for dresses.

It is massively creepy how this sort of thing is presented as light entertainment.
