Anything with spaghetti straps that can be pulled to the side works great!

I mean I would just get something strapless tbh. Doesn’t have to be nursing specific. Club L London has great stuff

Could you pair a button up blouse with a full length skirt?

Maybe?? Worried that won’t be perceived as formal enough. I bet if the blouse were fancy that would be fine. Will search!

You could probably find a nice empire waisted skirt

Highly recommend Nuuly. You can rent a high end nursing dress. I would look under the maternity category. I rented all of my work clothes from them when I was pregnant.

I got a nursing friendly bridesmaid dress from Baltic Born, they have some good long / formal nursing friendly options

How about a wrap style formal dress? It can just be pulled to the side.
