    Perhaps if the orange one is not easily fixable and you don't like it the way it is, maybe you should return it? They're both lovely though. Hope you enjoy the wedding :)

    Black one, the orange one has a cut which suggests it wouldn't flatter anyone - even the model looks shapeless in it

    Right after much trying on on and on again of both dresses, i decided that the orange one just wasn't me, I didn't like the bottom of the dress, and the material just didn't flatter my wide hips, but for anyone who suits that style of dress it really is lovely.

    The black one, i did really like, but (there always is one) the size 14 fits perfect on the hips, but round the bust it was a bit to big, and i felt that i was always pulling it up, and no way was i going to have a tuck put in, remember the mother of the bride incident :eek:

    So again a trip to debenhams was in question, this morning, plus i printed off a voucher for 20% off (i'll start a new thread for that), and i got this dress, should have been £100 got it for £80, i feel much better in it, the cut suits me, and it has wider straps.
