Would you do hair up and no necklace like the model?

If you were going belt-less and hair up/back, I would definitely opt for larger/statement earrings to balance out the volume on the bottom.

2. i'd probably wear my hair down, but that's just because i never wear my hair up
3. i like what @pwnstar: said. big earrings to balance it out!

@Mamaof2: I would - but that's because that's what *I* would do. You would lose some of the blousy-ness, but I think it would create a better proportion overall (even the teeny tiny model looks like she has some bulk to her under the dress because her body gets a little lost in the fabric (and her leg line is visually interrupted/shortened by her booties)). I think it works either way, but I think a belt opens up a ton of possibilities - when you add a belt, you get to determine where you cinch/emphasize - more empire (narrowest part of your ribcage) or more true waist, whichever flatters your figure most.
Eta: I would not belt it if it bunched a ton of fabric up around your waist - does that make sense?
