A casual pub wedding. And other stories. I’m a 38g above. Its not a wedding dress is it? Isn’t it a funny colour?

It's not suitable for anything. Horrible colour and doesn't flatter you.

loobylou10 · 15/07/2018 12:59

Wedding dress as in you are the bride? If you are then, no sorry, I don’t really like it. I think it emphasises your chest - you’ve got great legs though.

With Nice shoes, it’ll be lovely

AveABanana · 15/07/2018 12:59

Nope.

CherryBlossom23 · 15/07/2018 13:00

No - awful. The colour is terrible and the top part wouldn't flatter anyone.

dimplesmccutie · 15/07/2018 13:00

nope its horrible does not flatter you at all.

I don't like it.
What colours do you like, what styles do you prefer?
That dress isn't nice.

loobylou10 · 15/07/2018 13:01

Who is they?

twattymctwatterson · 15/07/2018 13:01

No it looks like a poo. Sorry

SilverHairedCat · 15/07/2018 13:02

Who is they? A store dresser?

Sorry, neither is a great look. From one busty lady to another, you need a very different neckline.

ScreamingValenta · 15/07/2018 13:02

I would go for something more fitted - I don't like the colour, either.

Sorry, really don't like it - it looks like an attempt to turn mediaeval peasant clothes into couture Confused

EachandEveryone · 15/07/2018 13:02

And are you the bride?

EachandEveryone · 15/07/2018 13:02

Its sizing a 40 won’t touch my boobs

Neither of those dresses flatter you at all. The first one is particularly dreadful. Who is they?

EachandEveryone · 15/07/2018 13:04

No I’m a guest it’s in a pub very cheap and cheerful affair

OP posts:
ScreamingValenta · 15/07/2018 13:04

The second one is better, but the clingy vertical strips don't favour a large bust. Something like the second one with a lower neckline, and no stripes, would suit you better

EachandEveryone · 15/07/2018 13:05

Ive lost a lot of my belly since my hysterectomy afew weeks ago but my boobs have grown even more

The first one is very Frankie Howerd in Up Pompeii. You would be better with a more fitted style and a lower neckline.

If this is a personal shopper I’d be telling them to get a new career.

OP - you have great legs so I think the knee length is probably right. But you need a lower neckline and something with a bit more structure. You might suit something 40s ish. Have you looked at lindybop dresses? Good for boobs

AlisonCHaynes · 15/07/2018 13:07

The first one makes you look like a giant poo, and the second one just looks cheap and nasty.

Stand up for yourself - tantrums if necessary!
