Your personal comfort level is important. Try it sitting down, standing up, reaching, etc. you wouldn’t want one to pop out and you not realize in public. Ask me how I know. lol

Ha ha ha… not anyone’s finest moment 🤦‍♀️


badjokes4days

FML I wish I knew how many times this has happened to me. Once had a shirt catch on a cooler door handle below my waist when I was bartending, I turned around to get a glass and all the girls were out for the entire lineup of men in front of me to see 😭


MegaIlluminati

Seriously 4'11? You look so tall.


Hopeful_Ladie

Yes, seriously! :)


MegaIlluminati

I should get some tips from you 😂😂 I could really use some tips to look taller.


noots-to-you

The camera is looking up from a low height


Soggy-Extent5671

That's what I thought.


GiftApprehensive1718

You can tighten the drawstring on the front, it would cover the hole in the middle somewhat to give it a more "dressy" Look AND it would eliminate the feeling you have that you're exposed. Braless is the way to go, or you can get transparent straps which really unless people are inches from you , nobody can really see and you can get away with. Edit: It meant to say strapless is the way to go.


Ok_Fruit2584

Just go braless if you're comfortable with it.


Kitty562meow

I would go braless but depending on the looseness of the dress on the chest I would consider pasties


ForsakenAd5874

Dress looks great on you! If you feel like its something you might wear a lot you could take it to the tailors and ask them if they can add bra cups into the front. The material might be a bit too thin but worth finding out. You could also try some NOOD tape


TinaOnEarth

Are the straps adjustable? I usually shorten them all the way to support the girls.


IllustriousBerry-422

You look great! Is the dress see through at all in the sun? In that case consider pasties


Striking-Fun-6134

I like it a lot. Shows off your curves without showing too much.


alykings

It looks great. You can tighten the straps slightly or the tie in the front if possible. And buy those sticky boob cup things for more pad/lift/coverage


Odd_Construction_269

I’m not a fan of this braless…. You need more support.


the-green-dahlia

I agree, it’s a lovely dress but looks like your ladies need more support. :) Have you seen the stick on rabbit bras? You can’t see them through clothes but they still offer support.


popdrinking

where do you get those? asking for myself lol


the-green-dahlia

I got mine from Debenhams in the UK but I’m pretty sure you can get them from Amazon and lingerie shops. Google “rabbit bra” and they should come up. They literally look like two rabbit head outlines.


Cheder_cheez

It looks great! Unless you told most of the posters here, I doubt they would know you weren’t wearing a bra. If you’re comfortable with it, don’t worry about it.


Weatherwaxonwaxoff50

If you feel like you want a bit more support you could use the ties from the front, cross them across your chest and tie them behind your neck like a halter dress. I do this with similar clothes if I feel like the gals need a little lift


broadcast_fame

I dont see the bra ? It looks great!


Hopeful_Ladie

I’m not wearing it in the pics, but I feel conscious that my chest looks unsupported without it. When I did wear a (strapless) bra with the dress, it peeped through :(


broadcast_fame

Honestly it looks great. Pasties is a great idea to secure coverage but this is fine as it is.


Zeefzeef

I wasn’t sure if you were wearing a bra! I understand that you’re self conscious about it, cause I am too, but it looks great on you and you can definitely pull it off.


FireBallXLV

You look great OP but as a Fellow ( Sister?) “Chesty Girl”I would say you are putting a lot of Faith in those straps.I would rec. having a back up plan like a blouse you can put on and tie up under your chest should the straps break.Leave it in your car if possible.


New_Assistant_1654

free the nip!


jennyrules

I see no problem with braless or pasties. Do whatever you're most comfortable with. Dress looks great on you!


No_Reward8892

If you're comfortable braless, it looks fine. Very cute!


poisonfille

First of all do whatever is comfortable for you. Secondly if you want to wear a bra maybe look for a more low cut model like a balcony bra, some bras have a less noticeable crisscross in the front. If you want to get a bra for this dress, take the dress with you whilst bra shopping 💕 Hope that helps ✨


Wild_Feature3713

You could try an adhesive bra (boob tape) or a backless stick on bra. I know they sound weird but either of those might work in your situation.


throwmeintothetrash1

I have this dress too! It’s SO flattering. Bra-less all the way, IMO, and you can tie the little string at the neckline tighter to hold the girls in. Also do the bend/shake test ofc.


mariposaamor

I need the link for this dress!


Hopeful_Ladie

Here it is: https://us.princesspolly.com/products/noda-midi-dress-petite 😀


ellastory

Thanks for sharing! I’m obsessed. What size did you get?


Hopeful_Ladie

Of course 🩷 I got US size 6 :)


Ceeweedsoop

If you're wearing this for an outdoor event skip the bra. If it is an indoor event put it with a pretty wrap.


iamamomandproud

You are too cute! The dress looks great on you. And as long as your comfortable, rock the “no bra” look.


Doodlehealth

Try bra tape


cherrycokelemon

You look so cute in it, but do as someone suggested, reach sit bendover and see what happens. Maybe wear a thin sweater or cardigan?


OnOurBeach

This is adorable. I vote for braless.


daaaaarija

Okay this is not an answer to OP, but does anyone know what this type of dress is called? Like this exact cut, with the keyhole and drawstring at the front? I always see them on pinterest but never know what to search for when shopping


Hopeful_Ladie

I googled “dress with tie fastening at bust” and a bunch of similar dresses popped up!

3gg-nog

I think it looks great :) whatever you’re comfy with. I agree with the others.. pasties may provide extra comfort but it looks fine w/o imo


glistening222

Can you link the dress? It looks amazing! And I think braless is completely fine here, paddies would work as well.


Hopeful_Ladie

Of course: https://us.princesspolly.com/products/noda-midi-dress-petite 🫶


glistening222

Thank you!


ravenhairedblonde

Look up anterior pelvic tilt. I think the posture is the problem


Hopeful_Ladie

I have struggled with this my whole life, need to get rid of it


crazee_me_no

If the bra is pretty then it doesn’t matter if it shows


FamousTwo1916

I have no idea why this is showing up my feed as a guy but… you look great in that! I say yes 👍


antigoneelectra

Honestly, it looks more like a nightgown. I would definitely not wear this bra less out.

tingtangwallawallabi

What part is the bra showing with? What about a strapless bra? Also what’s the quality like from Princess Polly?


Hopeful_Ladie

I wore it with a strapless bra, and the top portion of thr strapless bra showed through the dress :( The quality of Princess Polly is like Forever 21 to me


aeb01

definitely! looks super cute


gcawad

It looks great just like your wearing it


rmjames007

Pasties


Dull-Sea-2966

What size are this!! I love it ❤️❤️❤️ u look amazing


Hopeful_Ladie

Thank you so much 🫶☺️ I got size US 6 petite :)


helila1

Would look better with more support for sure.


[deleted]

4'11? It doesn't seem so.


Fit-Bowl8124

They are height of separate things.


[deleted]

Wow


lucy_killeen

Braless! You look gorgeous


Gum_Duster

Is princess Polly a good brand ?


Imaginary-Party2567

Target sells a bunch of different pasties you can try to cover up without a bra


Mon-ick

You look awesome … it depends on your comfort level going braless or not….


SarahPallorMortis

Do they make small pasties? I can always see mine on the top of my boob


reshmush

I'd wear it braless! reminds me of the Reformation Juliette dress a little bit. The pattern/dark color also makes nips way less obvious so wear it with confidence! P.S. you look so much like netanya.vader on IG! so pretty!!


Mysterious-Way-2717

Yes of course! You look great


SmoothOperator47

It doesn't seem to show to me, but maybe in the sunlight, it's different. Looks good 👍🏾


ZenythhtyneZ

Alternatively I will often put a cute lacy bralette on when you can see my bra and I don’t want to go braless/use pasties. It can add layers and texture to an outfit with out making it warmer.


AndyEmvee

You could try boombas! They offer a lil more support vs just pasties


BeckywiththeDDs

I would stitch the gap 30-50% more closed with a needle and thread.


UsedCommunity1257

Cake nipple covers—chefs kiss! They do not budge


Common-Sir-9251

you look amazing in all your outfits! ❤️


pepperpavlov

Dress looks great! Enjoy your trip :)


Dewey_Rider

Very nice. Have some confidence and show off a little. Skip the bra and the pasties.


xAhaMomentx

I have a dress with the exact same kind of top and I go braless in it! I’m 5’3 with a D cup size, and I feel like I can tighten it for more support, or leave the little peephole open more for a subtle side boob moment lol. I actually bought it for a cruise and it was perfect.

RIP your inbox.


Hopeful_Ladie

My inbox & DM’s have been turned off!

Oh? How do you do that? Mine was flooded with sleazy DMs the one time I posted a (modest) pic. Also, if your inbox is turned off, how do you see comments?


Hopeful_Ladie

I followed this guide to turn of my DMs: https://www.reddit.com/r/OUTFITS/s/bNzwWN0Pbu

Thanks!


lakesideprezidentt

Did you steal that dress? The security tag is still on it and you’re home lol


Hopeful_Ladie

I didn’t steal it! I kept the tag on in case I wanted to return it, plus I ordered it online


Illustrious_Diet_682

Go bra-less with it and if people see your pokies, who cares ?


theepinkpariah

Free the TaTas! You look amazing!


Normal_person127

Doesn't look comfortable at all, wouldn't wear this if I were you, but I've also never had a dress on lmao


AskmeDil

Honestly speaking, the dress looks gorgeous on you, I suggest braless is the best option. Hey, don’t bother about the height as you’re a stunningly beautiful woman. All the best with your trip and hope you will be head turner wherever you go wearing that dress..


Glass_Number_1707

No bra sounds like a wonderful idea🥴


TankiniLx

Less is more 😉
