Don't know what to do about this dress

Went to Primark the other day to look for a summer dress, ended up buying this clubbing dress as I can't stand all those dresses that look like a bad pair of curtains and are far too long because I'm a short arse.

So I intend to buy a thick belt to cover my belly to make it look nicer and get some sandals to go with.

Now I noticed it was a bit transparent in the shop I thought I don't care if people can see my bra under it as long as I'm cool and the fact it's thin means it will be. then I got home and realised you can see my undies thru it Sad.
I don't want people walking behind me looking at my big backside like that (I'm a size 12 BTW), So should I.............

A: take it back for refund.

B: buy some peachy coloured underwear to wear with it and sometimes just wear it like a vest top with a long skirt.

C: to hell to the people behind me, you don't like my underwear don't look at it, look where you are going instead.

Take it back.

It's not nice enough to warrant new underwear.

Take it back

A new dress should compliment your wardrobe not cause you a load more problems

No tags in the bin and I don't have a wardrobe I have a stack of tees and Jeans neatly piled in a cupboard like a Gap display, boyfriend has more clothing then me. I got two other dresses and about 3 skirts.

Meh I'll ask boyfriend, it's the first dress I've seen for time I actually like most are fucking rank awful floral shit with the bellowing out skirt section starting below the boobs, no idea what that design is called (or any other for that matter) but I hate it with a passion all most as much as I hate UGG boots.

No, none of them are very good for summer and the last one is just awful.

try H&M for more casual summer dresses, they had a load of different designs in a kind of t-shirt material - not flowery at all!
WRT to that dress get some skin coloured undies, they're always handy to have.

Can you get a white slip?

Well if you have the nerve you could get some really bright day glo undies and flaunt it! You would have to be very confident to pull it off though.
