Bridesmaid dresses

Going to be a bridesmaid for a friend, honoured to have been asked...but...am SO dreading the dress hunting part of it. I am an odd shape...size 14-16 on top size 10 on bottom, and also short...so its hard to find stuff that suits me. I don't tend to go shopping with people and I'm scared of trying stuff on in front of people none of whom have any abdominal fat to be self conscious of :(
I almost want to withdraw just to avoid the dress shopping:(

I feel your pain! I ended up paying to get the dress altered to fit better… good friends with the bride? Speak to her

I would be happy to get it altered but I'm worried it's going to be too tight around the midriff as they all have actual hips and flat tummies. I could speak to her, absolutely! Just unsure what to say that's actually constructive 🤔
