    I recently bought a bodycon dress for my graduation but it's quite see through. It's light green. I tried getting stick on cups but you can see them through it too! I also tried thongs but you can see my bum through it so no point. And with normal underwear you can see them through. Any tips I'm so desperate ! Is there any whole body coverage thing I can wear underneath hahaha :(?

    Go buy a full bodysuit dress (like a tight slip) - look in the underwear section of M&S

    Bring the dress to try on with underwear before you buy!

    Is wearing another dress an option? Graduations are typically quite formal, and a see-through bodycon dress doesn't sound appropriate, even if you wear something inside it. If you can't even wear underwear with it, it would be suited to a night out but not a graduation.

    It's a long bodycon though it's more like a midi dress than a bodycon. I would be wearing a comono with it aswell and a clutch bag so it does look quite formal in my opinion.

    I think it's more the fact that it's see through that makes it inappropriate for a graduation to be fair. I certainly wouldn't like to be at something like that in a see through dress. I'd be self conscious about it all day. If you wanna wear it do, but something else might be more appropriate and you can wear that dress for another occasion.

    You'll need to make sure it's ok under a camera flash too, not just daylight.

    Are you handy with a sewing machine? You could get lining for it

    A different dress for something as formal as your graduation would be my suggestion. Anything in any way see through for such a formal arena would be a no no.
