Should I keep this dress?

I know it's not to everyone's taste but I LOVE this dress I just got. However, I feel like my boobs look a bit massive in it, and I'm just not sure how it looks on me 😳
Is it ok for my body type or shall I send it back after I've tidied up and cleaned my mirror obvs

I think it's fine 🙂

maddy68 · 10/03/2023 16:53

I really like it

BHRK · 10/03/2023 16:53

I think it’s really flattering over your boobs, keep it

NotAnotherBathBomb · 10/03/2023 16:55

Not at all, love it!

Redebs · 10/03/2023 16:55

Very nice

MrsMitford3 · 10/03/2023 16:59

Very pretty and flattering over boobs!

Think how much you'll love it when the sun eventually comes out!

Crispynoodle · 10/03/2023 17:04

You look great it's a keeper

Drbrowns · 10/03/2023 17:07

It’s lovely. Where’s it from?

Alwayswonderedwhy · 10/03/2023 17:08

I think it looks great. I really like it.

Cocobutt · 10/03/2023 17:34

Definitely keep it!

It really suits you and it’s so unique.

DollieBantrysPantry · 10/03/2023 17:54

Definitely keep it!

buckleten · 10/03/2023 17:55

That looks really nice in my opinion!

Inkypot · 10/03/2023 17:58

I love it! It really flatters your shape and cinches your waist right in, boobs like fine in it. I love the gingham! Keep the dress, it'll be perfect when spring/summer comes

WomanStanleyWoman2 · 10/03/2023 18:10

Another vote for keep 🙂

pjani · 10/03/2023 18:11

So cheerful! It’s going to make you feel great to get it out on a sunny day.

Newyearnewhome · 10/03/2023 18:13

It’s not a dress I’d wear ( saying this as hoping that means my opinion is more objective!) but I think it looks amazing and it really suits you.

boobs look great in it and it really shows off your tiny waist.

definitely keep it!

Polis · 10/03/2023 18:33

I like it. Keep it.

AnneShirleysNewDress · 10/03/2023 18:43

Not my style but really suits your shape. Definitely a keeper.

Cornelious2011 · 10/03/2023 18:45

I think it's nice and would look lovely in summer (without the tights).

HelloBunny · 10/03/2023 18:45

No. The whole top is boob. I think another style would more flattering on you.

IndianSummer78 · 10/03/2023 19:11

If you wanted something less obviously booby I'd go for something with maybe a sweetheart neckline instead of the straight across one so the upper chest visually flows more seeamlessly into the boob area and something which stays close to your waist for a bit longer before it flares out so it elongates that area a bit helping to visually separate boobs from hips a bit more. The dress looks good on you but if you're putting it on and questioning it, it's probably not the one for you. You want to put something on and feel instantly amazing. That's a Joe Browns dress isn't it? They'd have others more like I described above, which you might prefer

HeartShapedSea · 10/03/2023 19:16

I like it but yes it is quite tight around the bust so I would say only keep it if you're absolutely comfortable with that. It still looks nice.
I buy too many dresses and I have learnt unless I instantly love something the moment I put it on, not to keep it.

RiceOnABike · 10/03/2023 23:50

Thank you all for the comments and advice 🙂
Yes it is indeed from Joe Browns, in the sale.
I'll keep it! I did get a lovely long cardi too which can go over it if I feel a bit self conscious.

Oh put that cardigan down! The dress looks great on you, or you in it rather. I think it covers boobs well so it's all good.

Sunflowergirl1 · 11/03/2023 05:47

I think it is lovely. Definitely keep it. I think flatters your boobs. Wish mine were more your size!
