The more I look at the pictures, the less I like the dress ^^ I'm definitely not keeping it. I also tried this one on

.
I think I'll go for the color block.

Yes, I see what you mean. The neckline is too high, which makes it not-so-flattering. It's a beautiful color though. If you decide to keep it, I'd try a padded bra of some kind. I almost always wear bras under my HL dresses (non-padded) and there are no lines that show through. Did you already try on the strapless color block? I've heard that many of the strapless styles can smash you up top, so I'm not sure that particular style would solve your problem either.

Edit: I just read your update and saw your new pic. Yes, the padded bra helps and it's a much better fit:smile1:, but I don't care for the necklaces - it's to much going on. That particular style has a neckline that speaks for itself (no jewelry required). How about some dangling earrings and stacking bracelets instead?

you're probably right, the necklace might be 'too much' (but I looove dramatic outfit ^^).

Just one last thing: I noticed a tiny 'snag' (I don't know if you would call it like that in english) in the dress it's barely noticeable but I can clearly see it. Is it normal (due to the fabric) or should I return it and get a new one?
here's a picture:

^I think most of us, who wear HL, like a dramatic outfit. The necklaces are cute, but they don't look dramatic, they look odd (because of the way that they conflict with the top of the dress.
As far as the snag is concerned, they are pretty much inevitable with this type of material. If it bothers you, return it, but you are likely to get another one anyways.
