Boobs?

😉☺️
My daughter is getting married soon and I have my eye on a dress from One Hundred Stars.

I have an ample bosom that has been part of my life sinceI was a teenager so I am used to it.
I am in my 60s now.

In the past I would have definitely worn something that enhanced my embonpoint but would prefer a dress that flows around my body.

I don't usually wear prints, mostly plain tunics and dresses with skirts and coloured tights and DMs.

However I have seen some lovely dresses on One Hundred Stars.

I know that this full dress look doesn't always go down well on Style and Beauty 😉
I would like to hear if anyone has worn these dresses and do they like them?

Quite happy to go outside my comfort zone and my budget is up to £150 if anyone has other suggestions.

no, I don't think those dresses would not suit someone with ample bosom, you would look like a tent. You can still go for something flowy, but it needs a little bit of structure, draping maybe?

An empire line belt could be transformative. Otherwise the boobs pull the dress out and the only place it has to go is down.

I think the other style of dress they do would be more flattering on a bigger bust as you can bring the waist in with a belt. My boobs are a JJ cup in this photo. Photo screenshotted from my insta story archive.

I really like the first link you posted OP

Depending on where you are in South Wales, there’s a lovely new (ish) boutique in Pembroke. Caters for all sizes, but I’ve got some lovely dresses from there and it sounds like I’m a similar size to you.

I think those dresses are best suited either to someone skinny and flat chested or to someone who is very big all over. Otherwise the fabric would hang down from the bust in a sort of jellyfish effect.

I'm not keen but I don't like clothes that aren't fitted as I think they don't do much for the silhouette, and can look a bit old fashioned. That said, where what you like. I'm sure you'll rock whatever you choose.
