Need a Dress for a Wedding in July

HATE dress shopping !! It's a Friday night, and I want something 'normal' Friday night formal-ish - DH is in the Wedding Party.

I'm kind of leaning toward something with color, blue, green, purple .........My whole wardrobe is black - My problem is, I want something with a very defined shape, cinched waist and not an overly fitted skirt .........I have a very hourglass shaped body -

I love the first one minus the bow, I'm afraid #2 will make me look pregnant (I have a D cup and am NOT a size 4) and I'm eh about #3


Any ideas ?? Suggestions??
TIA !

I like #3, the best but it might be a little clingy, which it sounds like you are trying to avoid.
That's the general shape I look for though, and I am curvy with a large chest (but also a not anywhere near flat stomach)

I agree that #2 will just hide your curves.

GaryElla just bought #2. I don't think it will make you look pregnant, I think it will hide your belly if you have one.

I also love #3.

I don't really have a belly, I'm completely proportioned, I'm just not small .........Chat Icon
I LOVED #2 when GaryElla posted it, but I'm not sure the shape will do anything for me, my boobs are too big, and the rest of me is not small enough - You know?

Then I think #3 could work. A more fitted dress like that will show off you good proportions.

How about this? Tadashi from Nordstrom

I hear you.. in that case I think 3 would work...very sexy. And I have a dress just like it that I can't wear now because I have a post-baby belly.

I also love the 3rd green one that Gossip Queen just posted.
