a good dress to breastfeed in?

Hi,
I've got a 5 week old DD. Been getting the hang of breastfeeding in public but only but layering my tops or wearing a nursing top. I've got two weddings coming up and need to buy a dress anyway as can't fit into any of mine, but I can't picture what would be a good style to breastfeed in? I tried on a nursing one in red herring last weekend and it was a ridiculously unflattering shape!
Anyone got any great suggestions?
Thanks!

Could you get a nice maxi dress?? You could always pull the front down at one side or layer with a feeding top

I fed at a christening but wore leggings and a top under my dress so wasn't too bad to find a discret spot to feed and wriggle dress up - no exposure as black vest an leggings so no one noticed

Anything with a button front or a wrap dress is good.
