Which dress for a wedding (not mine)

13 replies

I'm going to a wedding in a months time and I'm Newley pregnant so I won't be showing but was quite bloated last time so after something flattering... I'm an hourglass with big boobs (massive at the moment)

Would one of these work?

And are they all ok to wear to someone else's wedding?

I like the pink but I'm worried the super high neck will make the boobies look like there taking over my whole body.

I think the middle one is beautiful and will probably make your boobs look not quite as big as the pink one, which I think might show them off more than you want? Not that keen on the third one.

I also really like the middle one.

Is the middle one too white to wear to someone else's wedding?

Another vote for the middle one. The pink one is quite nice too, but I’m not mad about the third. Also think the middle would flatter big boobs more, (I am also giant of nork just now due to bfing, so feel your pain).

No I don’t think it’s too white and I’m one of Those People who would never wear a white based dress to a wedding. That one doesn’t really look white to me.

They are lovely dresses but none of them strike me as ideal for an hourglass with big boobs.

I adore 1, think 3 is really pretty and not keen on 3.

But I wouldn't wear any of them with large breasts, I'd go for a lower neckline or a wrap over to give your upper chest some shape

I have a large bust and find that a slightly lower, more open neckline, especially with a small V-neck, is much more flattering for me. Having said that, I like the first two dresses. The pink is a lovely colour.

They all look like they have very defined waistbands. If this is your 2nd pregnancy you may find you get a bump much more quickly than the first time. I would find something with some stretch/drapery round the front. Then you will be able to wear it still as the pregnancy progresses.

Hi OP - I'm an hourglass too, and I find that high necklines make me look bosom-y and matronly; and much bigger than I actually am (size 8-10). Beautiful dresses though!

historyismything · 06/04/2018 11:41

I love needle and thread. Could you go and try them on? They are all quite high necked, and might make boobs look big?!

MadMaryBoddington · 06/04/2018 12:06

I love all those dresses. I don’t know if they would work when pregnant though. Could be very uncomfortable round the middle.

I agree with posters who say high necks don't flatter big boobs . Also you can develop a bump earlier in pregnancy than expected. Something like this would be more flattering. www.seraphine.com/en-gb/blush-pink-pleated-maternity-nursing-dress.html
