Couldn't get out of the commitment! This is the dress I wore:<br /> <a href="http://www.alfredangelo.com/Collections/Bridesmaids/7243S" rel="nofollow">http://www.alfredangelo.com/Collections/Bridesmaids/7243S</a></p> <p>I was very, very nervous about my belly, but I ordered a larger size than usual. The loose chiffon turned out to be very forgiving. Trying everything on helped a lot. Also, I'd stay away from tight-fitting fabrics like lace and silk. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wedding-guest-dress-that-hides-pp-belly#post-2204524 Wed, 10 Jun 2015 19:23:35 +0000 Mrs. Taco 2204524@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I find shift dresses (sometimes up a size) are the best for covering my tummy...like this <a href="http://www.anntaylor.com/lace-shift-dress/375548?skuId=18839388&#038;defaultColor=&#038;colorExplode=false&#038;catid=cata000012&#038;priceSort=DESC" rel="nofollow">http://www.anntaylor.com/lace-shift-dress/375548?skuId=18839388&#038;defaultColor=&#038;colorExplode=false&#038;catid=cata000012&#038;priceSort=DESC</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/wedding-guest-dress-that-hides-pp-belly#post-2204471 Wed, 10 Jun 2015 18:51:35 +0000 knittylady 2204471@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Or, what kind of dresses draw attention away from a big leftover belly? I'm 9 months pp, but rocking a pretty sizeable belly still and have a wedding coming up where I'll be seeing all my old college friends. I know drop waists look insane on me, and empire waist just make me look pregnant.</p> <p>Any suggestions? Bonus points for suggesting actual dresses! (150 or under - preferably 100ish.) </p>
