Can I still wear bodycon? Brutally honest answers please.

[ChippyPickledEggs]

Have attached photos. I am a slim (size 8) hourglass. However I am also 45 and have given birth to 3 children. My stomach has a slight curve even with control panels in my tights or underwear.

Can I still wear bodycon? On a good day I think I can. On a bad day I worry I'm kidding myself. My friends won't tell me the truth.

After 3 kids to look like this it's a definite yes from me!!

Of course, don’t think age matters - you have a great body!
Although I’m not a huge fan of that dress sorry but that’s beside the point

You have a lovely figure, but that dress does nothing for you.

No that's cool, noseresarch - I bought it for work (I'm front of house - reception and lecturn at posh hotel/restaurant.)

@Hayeahnobut does nothing for her except show off her beautiful figure

Op, you look great, the dress looks great.

Fabulous figure, you look great. I like your dress.

Absolutely yes!

Don't think you have any problem carrying it off, I've only had two kids and couldn't do it as well😭. You have a lovely figure, don't be worrying about it.

Yes you look very slim but with a lovely feminine shape. You can wear whatever you feel comfortable in.

I am a similar size, shape, and age, to you. You look better than me though! I also have good days where I think yes, you got this! And bad days where I think Hell, no! I tend to go with it and dress how I feel, lol, so bodycon on a good day, and baggy styles on a ‘fat tummy’ day.

Yes, you absolutely can. But even bodycon can be too small and I think that dress is a bit too small for you.

You look amazing! You can definately wear bodycon

You look fabulous! Wear it with pride!

I'm the same age with the same figure and I wear clothes that fir my form ..I feel blessed to have an hourglass shape and so should you ..wear the dress! 😘

Definitely!

You look fine OP.

I would feel SO self conscious wearing that dress - that people would be looking at my arse. My issue I guess and a bit daft cos I go out running in running tights and fitted tops.

Yes you can wear a bodycon you look great, your mirrors need a wipe though, it’s my pet hate dirty mirrors 😬

The dress does nothing for you except show off your slim, feminine figure.

What do you mean your friends don't tell you the truth?

What do you really hope to achieve by posting this OP?

No amount of reassurance from anyone will magically give you the confidence. You need to find that yourself.

FWIW, you look great in it. But even if you didn't, you could still wear it. The fashion police won't come and arrest you.

You look fine but clean your mirror FGS, a dusty dirty mirror is a pet hate of mine

Ha ha, cross post @GameSetMatch

Yes absolutely you can wear bodycon, you look fab

100% yes!

You have a wonderful figure but the dress is doing nothing for it. I agree it looks too small. Sometimes I size up in something so that the fabric has a bit of room to drape in a more flattering way. I just think you need a bigger size.
