When faced with occasion to buy a new formal dress, most of us have heard that age-old "wisdom" that it's good to choose a dress that one can "cut off and worn again" (in less formal circumstances).The truth is few of us ever really have our formals cut down to street-length, and few shortened formals would ever be anything other than "shorter formals" even if they were cut.Looking for a dress that feeds the dilusion that it can later be cut into a more practice, street-length, dress is not the most realistic or best approach.
A formal dress is for a formal occasion. Formal occasions call not only for a beautiful dress, but for one that will make its wearer her ost beautiful. Formal occasions aren't about dress that border on being street dresses.First of all, do not try to cover up your body with baggy . You have assets and you should not hide them underneath a bunch of fabric.
The excess fabric will only make you look bigger, so you may as well embrace the fact that you're how you are, even if this is only a temporary condition. Your formal or tuxedo should be fitted to your current body—do not buy it in a smaller size expecting to lose weight. The occasion for which you are preparing is important enough that you want to look really nice. You will be stressed out enough without worrying how you are going to squeeze into that tiny cummerbund.
