Is this dress suitable?

[hotcrossSES]

I have an evening dinner and dance to attend with work in 2 weeks. I'm a size 14-16, 36DD with quite an apple tummy.

Do you think this dress would look ok or do you have any others to suggest?

I like it, i wouldn't be able to wear it as my bood are too small , i f i had big boobs then my tummy would not look so big. Not sure about black, depends on your skin tone.

I like it - halternecks can be very flattering. Make sure you've got a good strapless bra though.

No sorry it is horrible and £150. You could get much nicer for less money.

You are my shape twin, and I rather like that, but agree it it ££££££!

I am not sure on the length to be honest. Bit mumsy, betwixt and between.

The style is good though, am sure for that money you could get something better.

How tall are you? What colouring?

Would be keen for any other suggestions!
I am 5'6" and have brown hair with a few subtle highlights and green eyes.

BikeRunSki - hello shape twin

I'm hoping someone could come up with some nice suggestions as my confidence has taken a knock recently and I could do with feeling like I look gorgeous - just for one evening!

Are any of these better?

one
two
three
four

It's quite a big deal as there will be about 3,000 people there and I am part of the awards ceremony and so on the top table with the leadership team of the company
Added to that I'm fed up of people thinking I look pg and asking when DC2 is going to arrive. Unfortunately I've just mc and so could really do without these comments. Hence something flattering would be good!

TIA

Having look at your Debenham options, I'd say you're first option from asos is the best and the most sophisticated, hope you have a fab time :)

I agree with StarryEyed. Asos dress is lovely and think it would be very flattering! Have a lovely night!

there are some lovely dressesin coast and monsoon , about the same price , goodluck and have a great night im sure you will look fab .x

I like the ASOS dress. Not so keen on the others

The 4 others you've posted are all horrid - I'm surprised at how "cheap" they look, whilst not actually being very cheap!

The Asos one is ok. But quite expensive for what is, essentially, a very elegant but simple dress.

I'll do some looking and see if I can come up with some more constructive suggestions...
