Sexy Fancy Dress Ideas?

I am going to a 30th fancy dress party in a few weeks, and will be over 38 wks.
I have searched for an outfit, but can't find owt!
Any ideas on how to look good, for cheap?
I already feel huge, unsexy, useless and uncomfy.
So want to look sexy, instead of frumpy
Any ideas please?

I was about where you are now for halloween ... went to the party work for the day (we do that kind of thing where I work, and trick or treating as

a nun!

Wore a compy stretch black dress over a white vest, with a cheap £3.00 nuns habit from the fancy dress shop and a cross on long beads as a rosary. And I got to wear comfy shoes as part of the outfit.

Let me tell you a heavily pregnant nun goes down a storm at fancy dress partys and was the cheapest fancy dress ever!

comfy - not compy - can't even blame baby brain she's nearly 6 months now

No ideas here - but wanted to applaud you for the desire to wear a sexy fancy dress outfit at 38 week.

I vaguely remeber feeling like a breathless beach ball at that stage and would probably have clouted anyone who had even muttered the words sexy or party in my hearing.

Hope you find your perfect outfit.

P.S. some kind of empire line dress - either baby doll if vamping up the sexy or Jane Austen heroine if going for the demure look

my dress had a split leg and I wore red lippy and vampy eyeliner if that helps.

Or you could wear something white floaty and sexy and go as a angel?

This one is a bit out there - but I saw someone dressed as a Rubic's cube once, and it was sexy because of the fishnet tights poking out from underneath.
You get a cardboard box that will fit over your bump, paint it like a rubic's cube, with a hole for your head, put on some sexy tights and lippy, and voila.
Can't comment on the comfort!
Just a suggestion!
Good luck x

Belly dancer?

Honeydragon's angel idea is a good'un!

I was going to say fashion a toga type draped dress out of a sheet and then you could be a greek or roman goddess (Hera goddess of motherhood?)then it's all about pretty hair, sparkly make-up and jewellery. Sexy!

My friend dressed as a nun at a festival, when heavily pregnant. I only saw pics, and I can't say she looked sexy, but I can say that when I saw the pics, my jaw literally dropped and I said Oh. My. God. out loud - she looked hysterical, especially as she was holding a pint!

Brilliant!

I had great fun dressed as a nun when pregnant, twas hysterical

Thanks ladies, some great ideas! Smirking just picturing how I will look, trying to throw some shapes looking like some of these
knottylocks - love it, a belly dancer would certainly get a few raised eyebrows! But don't want to put people of there pints!
I will start to price some of these up, and see how easy they are to make x
