Yes, as you guessed, I am definitely self-conscious and hesitate to inflict midriff on anyone but the groom's father.&nbsp; I also see that I need shapewear to even out the pudges that show up on the dress, so I will consider that as well.&nbsp; Thanks again so much for your advice.&nbsp; You all have been incredibly kind and encouraging.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-formal-2-piece-suit-that-unfortunately-exposes-midriff#post-2149196 Mon, 19 Oct 2020 22:29:52 +0000 Angie 2149196@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautfully elegant :)</p> <p>I'm with <b>Mary </b>on the sliver of midriff being soooo okay. And with <b>FashIntern </b>on worrying that you might feel self conscious and tug at your outfit all night. So you'll want the option of coverage too.</p> <p>My suggestion is the long silk slip as <b>Jane</b> suggests, or shapewear like this:&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-formal-2-piece-suit-that-unfortunately-exposes-midriff#post-2149194 Mon, 19 Oct 2020 21:54:53 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2149194@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look beautiful. My only concern is if you feel self-conscious and spend time at the reception repeatedly pulling the top down/making sure it's in place, etc. A cami or similar wouldn't lie flat against your body, and could get caught with the top, so you'd be tucking it in *and* pulling the top down. If you can find a silvery white body suit, teddy, or similar, that might free up your mind for the important events. Something like this, in an appropriate color <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.playfulpromises.com/collections/nightwear/products/pphus021bl-hustler-arielle-mesh-body-with-strap-detail-blue?variant=32379120975920">https://www.playfulpromises.co.....mesh-body-</a></p> <p></p> <p>ETA slightly better color <a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.playfulpromises.com/products/hustler-arielle-mesh-body-with-strap-detail-peach">https://www.playfulpromises.co.....tail-peach</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-formal-2-piece-suit-that-unfortunately-exposes-midriff#post-2149185 Mon, 19 Oct 2020 21:18:56 +0000 Carla 2149185@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’m with MsMary! &nbsp;A sliver of midriff is fine... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-formal-2-piece-suit-that-unfortunately-exposes-midriff#post-2149180 Mon, 19 Oct 2020 20:37:03 +0000 MsMary 2149180@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>SHOW YO BELLY!</p> <p>Seriously you are a beautiful woman and if the guests see a sliver of skin during "Y M C A" at the reception, they should count themselves lucky! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-formal-2-piece-suit-that-unfortunately-exposes-midriff#post-2149174 Mon, 19 Oct 2020 19:34:15 +0000 JAileen 2149174@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was thinking of a camisole the same color. &nbsp;A full length slip as Jane suggests is better. &nbsp;What a beautiful dress! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-formal-2-piece-suit-that-unfortunately-exposes-midriff#post-2149173 Mon, 19 Oct 2020 19:12:21 +0000 annaand 2149173@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you so much, Jane.&nbsp; I really appreciate it.

I love it. You look gorgeous in it. I would wear a long silk slip I think with a v neck.

I can’t remember if that is the right word, but a grownup version of a baby’s sleeveless legless onesie?<br /> That way you don’t have to worry about it riding up.<br /> Would it work to add a ruffle to the bottom of the top in a similar, tone on tone or contrasting material? Again, hard to know without a photo.<br /> Good luck! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-formal-2-piece-suit-that-unfortunately-exposes-midriff#post-2149135 Mon, 19 Oct 2020 15:12:51 +0000 Angie 2149135@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi, <b>annaand</b>. Your outfit sounds lovely. Is there any way you can take a picture to show us a visual? Then I'm sure we can offer some helpful suggestions.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-formal-2-piece-suit-that-unfortunately-exposes-midriff#post-2149133 Mon, 19 Oct 2020 15:05:02 +0000 annaand 2149133@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I recently purchased a Carmen Marc Valvo long-sleeve suit (blouse and maxi skirt) online to wear to my son's wedding. It is a grey silk material. The top has an embellished pattern and the skirt is plain. The blouse meets but does not overlap with the skirt, and I find that when I raise my arms, it exposes my midriff. I am wondering what you would recommend. The only options that I can think of are (1) finding a camisole in close to the same color and sheen as the top and skirt and tucking it into the skirt or (2) perhaps attaching the blouse and skirt with hook and eye closures. Does either option sound good ? Or is there another option? I would be very grateful for any advice. </p> </p>
