Unruly dress!

ButterflyGirl23 · 2013-02-24 12:18:19

Hi Ladies I have a lovely black fitted dress that I would love to wear more often but it keeps on riding up my leg. When I wore it, I spent most of the night pulling it down and that just doesn't look great! Does anyone have any tips to stop dresses moving up your leg?

Were you wearing tights with it? I find when I'm wearing tights with certain dresses it happens.

If it's not bodycon style, you should be able to get away with a slip under it which should help.

Is it too tight around the hips/thighs? Maybe that's why it's going upwards... second the tights too, I have some dresses and that annoyingly tights dont agree with..

Also if you are wearing tights, it's reacting to static.

A 50 cent blob of body/hand lotion rubbed on your hands and then on the tights will get rid of it
