Try this link. If it does not take you to the exact page them search for dresses and there are a few bridesmaids dress look-alikes on the 3rd page. You could e-mail them and see if they deliver to the UK? (The dresses are near the bottom of the 3rd page)

I ended up buying patterns for all my BM's as mum used to do dress making and is great at it

My advice is go to a sewing place/haberdashery and look at the evening dress books, thats where i got mine

or here are a few sites

http://www.1sewingpatterns.com/

http://www.voguepatterns.com/

http://www.simplicity.com/

HTH!

I really like the pattern you posted and think it would look fine on a pregnant lady.

I also like these, on the link Lo posted under the Vogue section..

Not too sure about the 1st one now I have posted it - its very low at the back. Beautiful, but maybe not that comfy for someone who is pregnant.

Saw this one too
