help me find a dress to wear to a black tie wedding in NYC

I'm going to a black tie wedding on a Sat night at one of the Ritz Carltons in NY next month. I don't have any long dresses that fit...it's been so long since I've worn one and the last few weddings I have been in the dresses were all short.

Anyway, I'm looking for something that will hide a little bit of extra weight that I have put on. Possibly empire waisted? Otherwise, I would like to keep the cost down so nothing to $$$. Im pretty open to colors, etc... Any suggestions? Thanks!
