advice and help!

Fatshionistas, I desperately need some help.  My husband and I have made the big splurge and are attending an inaugural gala on Jan 20.  The gala is "semi-formal/black tie" and I'm having a fatshion brain lapse.  So far I've found two different dresses that I think might work, but I'm completely confused about accessories and shoes.

The first dress is this one from Macy's.  I really like it, but it only comes in a 0x, which I fear may be too small.  I ordered it on the hope that it might work.

The second dress is from Igigi, it can be found here.

I am, according to the Igigi site, an OVAL shape.  This means that I carry most of my weight in the front, have a flat butt, stick legs, and broad shoulders...like a walking egg! :oD

Does anyone have suggestions for dresses, shoes, accessories?  HALP!

For the record, I'm 5'8", about 240ish pounds, wear an 18-20.
