    First of all, 80+ lbs. . . . Woohoo for you! Well-done!

    Love #5 . . . too bad they don't have the size you need.
    In that case, #4 since it is the same style.
    Also, please don't take offense, perhaps get a bra specialist? Big department stores offer that service. You would be surprised the difference it can make. : )
    Honestly did not mean to offend . . .
    Have fun!

    Dress 5 where spanx. The pattern is flattering on you and It hugs your figure in the right places.

    4 or 5. They really flatter your shape. When I have a big event, I double Spanx. I wear a Spanx panty/slip and Spanx pantyhose/tights.

    I like #2, but 5 gets an honorable mention lol. 2 looks more modern to me, and makes you look fancier and more put together

    You're definitely rocking #4. The style of #4 and #5 is very flattering to your shape, and I prefer the pattern of #4.

    First...congrats on your 80 pound loss!! You'll really wow them at the reunion:-)

    As for your dress selection--I like the bold prints and colors, and my favorite is definitely #5...the reason it looks so flattering is the print on the dark (black?) background and the waist. If you absolutely can't fit into #5, is it possible you can find some prints on a dark background or even just a stunning Little Black Dress you can doll-up with some pops of color?

    I second this. I went to a specialty store in my area - not Victoria secret, and the difference was tremendous.

    You look fab in all, but the last pic, pink white and black floral is particularly great on you. However the shoes not so good, the shorten your legs due to the amount of detail at the front. Find a classic stiletto or court ( no ankle straps or fussy detail) and you are good to go and will look FABULOUS! this is not in a *****y way Im a fashion graduate. and a shoe showcasing your ankle will elongate the leg :)

    Damn. Where were you with this valuable information several months ago when it was relevant? OP had to make a decision without your help and now you come here to rub it in her face.

    Dress # 4. - It has a lovely neckline that shows off your collar bones. (# 1-3 make you a look a little bustier than you probably are)
    The color of #4 accentuates your skin tone and compliments your hair...and I would also hazard a guess your eyes as well.

    The reunion isnt until Sept,.. its only Jan now. Im gonna bet dollars to donuts that the dress fits beautifully by then.. if not a little on the large side.
