I'm going to Winter formal this year (its like prom, only in the winter.) and I really like this dress. But I'm getting a little iffy about it, because it clings to my tummy.... Its beautiful and I really like it but I'd like some other opinions. what do you all think?

    Do you feel good in it? Because i say go for it! I dont see any clinging and think it fits you to a T!

    I do feel pretty good in it! :) It just clings a little toward the lower tummy (combination of mostly extra skin and some fat)... I'm just afraid of looking icky... I've never worn anything like this before ;) and thank you!

    I like it! From the distance you took the shots at, I couldn't tell anything was clingy. I say be bold and do it! You look great :)!
  • That is pretty! I really like the design on the back too. I say it's a winner! :drinker:

    I think it looks great from the photos, could you try wearing a slip under it to see if that stops it clinging, or wear of of those suck you in girdle things.

    I think it's gorgeous!! If you're still worried about any clinging, then I would suggest the 17-day diet. I know a family that tried it, and everyone lost about 10 pounds in the first 17 day cycle. :)
  • I agree with the other posters. You look great! I love the color on you. Perfect for your hair color and skin tone.

    I think you look great in it! If you need a litle confidence, take a tip from the stars on the red carpet - spanx! My SO counts on spanx to smooth out the lines, and control the tummy.

    Thanks! you all are awesome. I think my date will be shocked to see me in it..I usually don't wear anything that really shows off my body...usually a t-shirt or some kind of flowy dress... I think he's going to love it, though. But He's not seeing it until the night of! :)

    Looks fabulous on you girl! I'd love to wear something like that again. You should totally do it and think of how much that you've worked to get to the point to look that wonderful.

    I think this is the one--great color on you and for a winter formal. I don't see any clinging, but you have time to try various undergarments that will help in that area.

    I'd say go up with the hair and simpler jewelry because the back of the dress is already like jewelry.
    Gorgeous!

    You wear it well!!! Absolutely gorgeous!! I don't see the cling either, however if it is something that bothers you, try the spanx. I saw your question about the low back and whether they would show....I'm not sure, but you've got some time to try them on and see. :)

    Spanx will sort the tum issue out - not that I can see it! You look lovely x

    The dress looks fantastic on you! The color is stunning. Agree with the others - you have time to find the right undergarments if you feel you need to. People of ALL shapes and sizes wear them sometimes, just to smooth everything out!
