the first one :-0 at the price.....is it YOUR wedding?!

BUT it is gorgeous and i think it would do wonders if you have a bit of a tummy because it doesn't seem to cling at all and hangs nicely...it's got those subtle yet detailed vertical pleats which seem like they'd be very slimming.

and also the see by chloe dress with the sequinned arms is VERY nice ! if you've got good legs and you wear with very black tights it would look wonderful! everyone would be looking at your spangly arms and long legs and no one would notice your tummy !!

so if i were you i'd go for for either one of those. : ) x

I think the first dress you showed was lovely, and if you are not large in the boob dept and have good legs, will look fab and hide any little tummy you might still have. Go for it.

that was to op btw,
100x dresses on bias very bad for tummys as cling terribly ime

I don't like the OP dress either - a bin liner with the tie handles draped elegantly over the shoulders, would be more flattering. In fact I don't like any of the dresses shown - they all look horribly cheap, even though some of them are far from it. The dress pennies suggested is especially nasty - it looks like a cheap tutu from Woolworths in black instead of sickly pale pink.

It's got a bubble hem, isn't that a bit last year?
