Disguise a belly button

Verity, 11 August, 2022 at 09:45 Posted on Wedding Attire 0 2
Hi, first time poster!
I have a very simple dress, no lace on the front but a low back made of lace. I am a size 12 with a deep belly button, it causes a shadow on my dress. Looking back at photos it was obvious when I tried the dress on but I loved how it made me feel. I’m now very worried about it and trying to find shapewear that doesn’t cut me in half or roll/ride up is bad because of the low back.
Does anyone have any hints, tips or tricks?

    It may be something that you notice, but others would just see you looking lovely in your dress. Maybe try taking pictures in a few different lights to see how it looks again before you spend lots on new underwear etc - it may not be a problem on most lighting settings. Could you try your dress wearing one of the circular white or skin coloured nipple covers on your bellybutton? They are cheap, easy to source, discrete, and mean you don't have to change your planned underwear - plus you could just wear it if feeling a bit conscious for formal photos then take it off later and just enjoy your day. If your dress has capacity you could try a low back slip or underskirt but that may add a lot of cost to solve something that no one else would notice. There may also be a sash/belt you find that complements your look. Good luck - I'm sure you will look lovely!

    Thank you so much, nipple covers is a great idea and I’ll definitely be trying my dress on in different lighting. I know it’s a silly thing that only I will be worried about but right now it seems like such a big deal. I need a really big chat with myself 🤣🤣
