I recently purchased a dress on sale because I’ve been searching for a cute black dress for parties/special/formal occasions since I'm usually in pants... Most dresses I try on are either too expensive, too long or its perfect but my bust isn’t big enough for it....I probably bought this dress is besides the fact that it was on sale & it was padded! tongue.gif

It looked fine when I tried it on in the fitting room but when I tried it at home, the dress made me look bigger than I really am? Does this happen to anybody else or is it just me? I have a hunch it might be because I've gained weight & need to lose it which is why the dress is so unflattering on me??

Here are some photos I quickly took.

If the above photos aren't that clear on ur comp, mine is slightly similar to the blue dress below in terms of its length, way its pleated etc.

Besides teaming it up with a belt and/or losing a bit of weight.... I'm just wondering if there is any other way to make the dress a bit more flattering on me?

Thanks for the tips girls~ happy.gif

Unfortunately, since not much could be done about the dress.. No matter what I did, in the end it still made me look a tad chunkier than I am.... I ended up returning it today... 2 days before their refund policy expires!! tongue.gif

Browsed in stores & I ended up purchasing a knee-length bandage dress in black I found in the clearance racks (was cheaper than the pleated dress I returned so was pretty happy~)...

I tried it on & it didn't look too bad on me.... since I thought the bandage dress were for people with long legs and/or very curvy figures & can flaunt it~ Hehe!


What are your takes on the bandage dress?
