"When you're looking at styles, there's a lot of things you can do to cover up things. One of the things too that we recommend mothers look at is whether or not they will have to wear strapless because a lot of mother's don't want to have to wear a strapless bra. This one, you know, we might be able to get by with a regular bra but a good tip is to be sure and have a good bra, especially when she comes to try things on because that makes a big difference in how things fit. There are very loose fitting styles, especially good for plus sizes if you feel like you have maybe more rolls and lumps and bumps than you'd like to admit. Something that has a soft fabric that's not fitted tightly can be a real comfortable dress as well. Dresses that are what we call faux two piece, they're not actually two piece but they look like two pieces. This little part of the dress right here can really cover some sins and that also makes you feel much more comfortable. It's not one of those dresses you have to go around all night holding your stomach in."
