No wonder! It's got no front!

Oh... it's fab. I'd love to be able to wear dresses like that.

Absolutely lovely dress. as it would look blardy awful on me!

If the wedding is in a church then you might want a wrap to cover your shoulders, otherwise it's perfect.

quick q, should i go bra-less or get one of those stick on sets?

GreebosWhiskers · 21/08/2007 21:55

I'd go bra-less but that's because I have tiny little A-cup boobs & don't actually need a bra anyway. I suppose it depends on your size (and shape lol). Are you comfy going without or would you feel better with something holding you in? Also depends on how thin & clingy the fabric is - just in case there's a sudden cold draft

The dress is gorgeous btw - what a bargain!

lissie · 21/08/2007 21:58

the fabric is v thick and heavy. im v petite with tiny hips but top heavy (34c/d)

Am now very - I've always wanted to be top-heavy but couldn't even fill a B-cup maternity bra & that's the smallest size you get

lissie · 21/08/2007 22:20

I used stick-on for my wedding (so no lovely undies for DH to admire when the dress came off!) .
Get lots so you can practise first (on the day is not a good time to find out that you're allergic to the glue). And you might need a couple of "goes" to get it right. I was a DD then (G or H now, just stopped BFing), and used the largest size, which worked well.
