I have big boobs (36ddd) and legs that go for miles. I am looking for a cute linen dress that isn't going to looke really short on me

I have this http://www.charlotterusse.com/product/index.jsp?productId=12625503&cp=4078198.4192312.4234473 in white, and my legs make it look really short when I wear it with wedges... Ideas? suggestions? links?!

THANKS!

    .....do you have a great @$$ too?? LOL Sheesh...bragger! haha

    That being said, I'd just wear the dress as a Tunic if I were tall. You can pair it with leggings or a great pair of skinny jeans and super high heels!

    nude heels make legs look longer. no straps.

    as a matter of fact I do ;)

    lol jk

    That's what I was thinking, but it's too long to be a shirt, too short to be a dress. *sigh*

    I want my legs to look shorter.
  • Big Boobs (F cup...and I do consider them fantastic)...no legs here...I'm only 5'3. I am probably NO help to you. But since you have so much leg to spare, I would love to be able to wear a maxi dress....

    I have the same problems, all my height is in my legs and pants, skirts, shorts, etc. are NEVER long enough, and then big boobs hikes it up even farther. Either look for longer skirts/dresses, or when you do find something cute check the hem. If it's wide enough you can let it down an inch or two, sometimes that's all you need.

    And if you have the legs for it - ROCK the short skirt! :)

    Looking at that dress... any time I've ever put ruffles near my boobs it doesn't do anything except make them look even bigger and my body not proportionate at all.

    Does it have a hem that you can have a seamstress take down to make it longer so you can wear it as a dress?
    Either that, or have the seamstress shorten it so it can be worn as a tunic?

    if you're good at sewing add a panel at the bottom of blue or black to give yourself like 3-4 more inches of dress.

    try asos.com .... each dress has a runway model so you can get an idea how it's going to look. They might not have the boobs but they definitely have the height.

    Wear it with flats! There are a lot of cute styles out right now

    wear some flats, and a skirt/dress that goes passed your knees...maybe lose the belt.
  • My tips:

    -Don't shop Juniors clothes...they're always really short.
    -Wear ankle strap heels.
    -Try Anthropologie. They have great dresses in reasonable lengths for tall people. The patrons also give excellent reviews so you can read about the item from someone with your body type.
    -And Good Gracious! Embrace your long legs! Every woman dreams of having long legs!

    Flats. Gladiator style sandals make my legs look shorter, which isn't the look I'm going for but for you I guess it's a solution.
