Will you be comfortable in it? Or will you spend the whole night trying to suck in your stomach as you feel self-conscious?

trinity0097 · 09/08/2016 22:17

I wouldn't. Would be nice if it was a proper dress but it's very ugly as a crop top/skirt combo IMHO! For that reason alone don't wear it!

Racheyg · 09/08/2016 22:18

Thanks for the honesty. I doubt I will feel comfortable :(

You are not fat but it is too tight at the back. A dress in that style rather then a crop top would be nicer.

2protecttheinnocent · 09/08/2016 22:22

I don't think you too fat for it, but I don't think it does too much for you tbh. I think something else would really flatter your figure better

NotTodaySatan · 09/08/2016 22:22

You don't look fat but that dress is extremely unflattering.

CalleighDoodle · 09/08/2016 22:22

Its ok at the front and side. It is the back that is the issue. Have you got it on properly? I mean is the waist straight?

whattheseithakasmean · 09/08/2016 22:23

You are not fat, the outfit is fugly. Wear something that flatters your nice figure.

gingerbreadmanm · 09/08/2016 22:23

you're not fat but it doesn't suit.

what's the occasion?

DavetheCat2001 · 09/08/2016 22:24

I doubt that outfit would look great on anyone OP.

You're def not fat, you just need a more flattering style x

monkeywithacowface · 09/08/2016 22:25

I think you have a very nice figure but that outfit does nothing to show it off at all. sorry I can't imagine anyone looking very good in that. I'm sure you can find something much better to show off your lovely curves.

MelanieCheeks · 09/08/2016 22:25

You're not too fat to wear it. But it wouldn't make me go " wow you look fab!" either.

HelenF35 · 09/08/2016 22:25

I think the outfit is unflattering. Your figure is great, that outfit is not.

blueskyinmarch · 09/08/2016 22:26

You are not fat but that outfit is terrible. Sorry.

Longdistance · 09/08/2016 22:26

You are not fat. The dress is a bit erm, yeah..

It doesn't suit your shape basically.

Ellieboolou27 · 09/08/2016 22:27

I think you look really trendy and have a good figure.

The Dress however is terrible, colour, style, fabric, well just everything about the dress is awful, sorry but if u can I'd get s refund and buy somethings more flattering (and different fabric) Smile

mumofthemonsters808 · 09/08/2016 22:27

Well I don't think think you look fat, I actually think you look nice.

originalusernamefail · 09/08/2016 22:30

You have a nice figure but that outfit does not flatter you. I think a six foot size 0000 model would have problems making it work tbh.

JackandDiane · 09/08/2016 22:30

its just not very nice

lampshady · 09/08/2016 22:37

Posture!! If you like it, shoulders back, tummy in and strut.

CakeNinja · 09/08/2016 22:37

You should not wear that.
Nothing to do with your size.
Everything to do with it being, well, frankly horrible!
You can do much better, people here will know how best to advise (not me personally, sorry!).

SillySausage1 · 09/08/2016 22:37

it's not you letting the dress down (you are not fat); the dress is letting you down, find a dress that does you justice Smile

Msqueen33 · 09/08/2016 22:38

You're not fat at all but imho that dress is horrible.

Racheyg · 09/08/2016 22:47

Thanks guys, your too nice :)

I don't love the outfit but I wanted to wear something different rather than a "Coast" style dress ( I love coast but that's all I wear to weddings ect)

it's my really good friends wedding and wanted to look pretty, trendy and slim ( never will I be skinny) in one go. Is that possible?

Oh God I thought that was a ribbon around your waist until I saw the back!

Honestly, it's not terribly flattering. Sorry
