What style of Prom Dress will suit me?

Question

I consider myself a weird shape. I am small and short, I am 5 ft 2 and have very small ankles, wrists and shoulders but my chest is FLAT. My problem is all my fat rests on my bum the rest of me is really small. I'm worried a prom dress will show my massive bum. What did i do to transfer my fat and what style of dress will suit me?
Thanks

Answer 1

Try a halter top Prom dress, I think they can be flattering even if you are flat. You might also get a padded bra.

Answer 2

You should definitely try to get a padded bra. Lily of France is really good for that, you can get it at JC Pennys I think. When you are looking for a prom dress, look for something that brings a lot of attention to your upper body. try something with a wide neck, sweetheart neck, square neck, v-neck, cowl neck, or off the shoulder. Don't do a halter or pleated bottom unless you want your hips to look bigger. If the dress doesn't have any detail on the top, wear a necklace or something that will bring attention to your upper body and make sure the top of the dress is tight and fitting. the bottom of the dress should be a slight a-line. if it is too full you will get lost in the dress and if it is too straight your hips and butt will look big. and heels of course lol.

Answer 3

i would try to get a dress that is long and flowy beacuse it will make you look taller and it will help you hide your bum. to hide your bum the best, get a long dress that flares out some starting at the tummy down to the floor. (like a train, but not super long) as far as your flat chest problem, i would get a dress that has a halter top with thick straps. it will look pretty and will help your chest look bigger. and make sure that the color is slimming and flattering. hope this helps! have fun at prom!!

Answer 4

halter top dresses are best for flat chested women

above is a dress that I wore 9 mos preg to be in a wedding and it didn't make me look huge at all. and the top look great. I was at the time wearing a 34a bra size. the seamstress told me that they were good dresses to alter so even if you had to get it in a bigger size for your bum

Answer 5

I would say, get a water bra, or a wonder bra. Those are nice, and I have lots. Nobody notices anyways. Get a strapless one of those. Then, wear a strapless fitted long dress. Or a strapless poofy dress.

Something like.. this

Answer 6

I BLACK ONE WILL DO THE TRICK. NO FLUFFY, OR SHINY ONE. JUST SOMETHING FORMAL, BUT AT THE SAME TIME LOOKS SEXY. I WOULD DO A HALTER TOP TYPE OF DRESS. SO, IT'LL ADD ATTENTION TO UR UPPER AREA, AND EARING BLACK WILL SLIM A LITTLE OF THAT "JUNK IN THE TRUNK". IT'S NOT BAD AT ALL TO HAVE A TUSHY... MOST OF UR FRIENDS PROBABLY ENVY IT!! =)

this took a while to get all this so hope it helped

Answer 8

I would go black, strapless, lots of sparkles or rhinestones, and lots of jewlry and silver high, high heels. If you are insecure about your flat chest you maybe could try a water bra.

Answer 9

Try getting a dress that floats away starting at your waist.

Answer 10

A line
Simple with maybe a jeweled halter neckline
