    IS there an age limit on bodycons being cool do you think. I'm 28 and currently gymming like mad for my wedding i'm thinking of getting one for my hen i'd only wear it when i'm super toned but i'm wondering will I look a bit mutton dressed as lamb? Am I mutton at 28?

    I don't think you'd be classed as mutton at 28. I do think that once you reach your 30's it becomes more of a concern, but it's all to be judged on an individual basis and if you think you look dodge in it then don't wear it. If you feel confident in one of those bodycon dresses then go for it.

    I don't think age really comes into the equation at all it's all about the way you look in the dress, I'm 18 and size ten but would still look dreadful in one because I don't do any toning exercise!
    If you have the body then I think you should go for it, besides you are definetely still young at 28!:D

    I think you should go for it :) I mean Victoria Beckham does and she's a lot older than 28!

    It's nothing to do with age. You will know whether it looks and feels right when you try it on. A colleague of mine wore one for her hen and looked fabulous. She's almost 30.

    This is far more important than age. I'm 23 and have mostly a good figure but I would never wear a bodycon dress because I don't think I have a bodycon body. You have to go in and out in the right places. I think curves are a must.

    Had to google them as I did not know of their existance - I dont see a problem wearing it - you are 28 not 108! If it looks good wear it.
