It's a nice dress and you have a great figure. A black blazer should smarten it up.

I don't think you need a wonderbra, as there is already a lot of boob on display.

How corporate is the work do? Just wondering how conservative everyone else may be dressed as yours is clearly a 'party dress'?

Lovely dress and you look great. BUT that's a lot of leg and cleavage on display for a work Christmas party. How corporate is his work place?

Wowzer! You look stunning. Agree that you don't need a wonderbra, it'll make them look artificial and they look wonderful as it is.

I'm not sure a jacket would work with that dress though .. a (fake) fur type coat for when you're outside instead? Some vintage-y

Sorry i should have said it is a party. Its a meal, dancers, performances, music the whole lot.
The bra im wearing in the photo is a push up but due to breastfeeding i fall out of my bras alot Blush i would die if my spaniels ears fell out in front of his colleagues.

It’s gorgeous.

Is it a work party though.....so you may feel slightly too WOWZA.

I live the idea of a blazer, but I think it might ruin the dress.

If it were me, I know I would be tugging at the front and side aware that I was showing a lot.

Night out with friends- I would wear it confidently, work party, and it is work first, I don’t think it’s quite right.

Wow you look gorgeous!

I agree a faux fur jacket or wrap would be the best with this - please don't wear a blazer!

ambereeree · 15/11/2019 08:36

I would go with a little cape over the shoulders

Tattooedmama · 15/11/2019 11:36

Thanks everyone for the replies.
I will definitely take on board what everyone has said, i thought it would have been okay after looking at the photos of previous years

No you should wear it! I wouldn't have felt self conscious at all when I used to have your figure - you look amazing, don't hide that from people.

Go! Be stunning!

totallyradllama · 15/11/2019 16:55

It's beautiful don't cover up just use some sticky tape to keep everything secure

GirlsBlouse17 · 15/11/2019 17:58

Wow! x

HollyBollyBooBoo · 15/11/2019 18:06

Gorgeous!

Flopjustwantscoffee · 17/11/2019 18:10

Where’s the dress from? It’s gorgeous

dudsville · 18/11/2019 16:54

You look fabulous. I wouldn't go with a black jackhet. I like the suggestion to look around vintage shops. Tyke dress looks stunning on you so you have to be careful not to wear something too drab or plain.

Scattyhattie · 19/11/2019 01:16

If you've time, take the dress to lingerie dept & try the plunge bras to see which feels more secure & suits cut of the dress, as if keep falling out of current ones you've probably changed size. Bravissimo put my less than firm boobs in a gossard superboost & recommended the 'fashion' tape (primark undies dept) to keep boob in & dress from gaping.

Are you cool person that would need to keep jacket on or more something to wear to get there?
