    Default Strappy gowns with a 'tail' ?

    New club, new rules. No see through, must be below the knees and one piece. So most of my outfits aren't going to fly. I'd like to find a strappy on top (I'm shrimpy and B-cupped, so a lot of gowns just swallow me up) with a tail (My backside is my best side).

    Like this:
    crossed with this:

    Any leads? I need minimal fabric, yet classy. Argh.

    What if the front is above the knees, but the back is long; does that work?

    Never fear, you have an insomniac clothes-horse stripper on your side. Options will be forthcoming.

    Now what else about your style? Any certain things you like or hate on costumes (i.e. lace, rhinestones, mesh, ruffles, stripes/patterns/prints)? Is the "tail" absolutely necessary, or do you really just want minimal fabric on the bottom (or all over)?

    Woo-hoo! My clothes-shopping-fu is not strong. I usually wear a solid color or small prints-I tend to be a little 50s style if I can, or just cute. Obviously the rules of the club are killing my need for polka dot bikinis!!!!

    The tail isn't necessary, but long skirts, even with a slit tend to overwhelm my bottom half (I'm 4' 10"), so yes, def front above knees. So many gowns just eat me alive. I need strappyiness! TIA!

    If you can't find what you want why don't you have one made? Some gowns can be really expensive so it might even be a bit cheaper to have one made exactly how you want it.

    what, no sheers? damn.there goes my great idea...
    These days I like to count my money. I like to wash it delicately and iron it. Sometimes I dry it with some bounty to make it all nice and cuddly. I love my money... did I say that out loud?

    They were giving that cute little brunette with the net mermaid dress slack about it. No sheers. Kills all my plans too.

    ^^ kills my ideas too, actually. Everything I had in mind as far as strappy short-in-front gowns has some sheer part to it!

    Could work?



    (not so open in the knee area though)



    (a good one, but not as strappy on the top)

    (cc437 on this page, the lavender sprialy one...would that be cheating the gown rule too much?)

    ^^Thanks! That second one looks promising. I was wading through their webpage before. I wonder if it's that itchy glitter fabric...

    The thrid one is very Boris Vallejo fantasy girl!

    If it truly is glitter "slinky" fabric, it isn't scratchy. Back in the day when I used to show horses (western pleasure for those of you that ride), many of my show outfits were made of this and were pretty comfy.

    I'm trying to figure out how many ways this can be further from 'gangsta'... and I can count 10 so far.

    I have the first gown, and I also am very petite and a B cup and it looks great on me... not sure I've seen any that look like that paired with your second example though...
