Sounds like you lost one phase of your incoming trunk line. If you have underground from the street, one of the two feeds has a short in it. (thus only half your stuff works) Your dryer or any other 220 V stuff should not work either.
If your service line is suspended (poles) it is probably one of those trunk lines.
If its underground, you need the utility company to 'sound' the lines and locate the short and replace one leg of the line.
