need super help with plus size dress

Hi ladies....I got married in Feb 06, I have a question for my friend.

She has to stand in a wedding as a MOH in 4 weeks.  We did online sizing based on her measurements and it was a 44 but the bust would be too big.  If you all know of a store that has something to fit her hips, my mom can alter the dress.
bust is 58"
hips 72"

The problem is, the wedding is in 4 weeks.  We need a lilac or purple dress (or white that can be dyed), fabric doesn't matter.  TIA!

    I don't know how large the sizes go, but David's Bridal has plus sizes into the 20s at least, maybe larger. They also can do a rush order on most dresses so they may be able to get the dress in time? She'd have to go and try on the sample (they have plus size samples to try too) and find out by each dress specifically.

    I had this problem and my bm got two dresses of ebay in the same color by Davids Bridal in size 26 and she used the 2nd dress for extra fabric.
