The MAGIC Dress ( & Passion For Fashion LINKUP!!)

F&F clothing Recently contacted me to ask if i would like to experience the wonder that is their new Magic Dress i said heck yes missy, let me see for myself if these are actually magic dresses.
You see i am alll about the shapewear when im getting dressed up for those special occasions. Before childbirth i had a seriously flat stomach, i was proud of it and never had to bother with support in the tummy department. But then Neo came and my tummy exploded to grand proportions. 3 years later and a wonderful healthy diet i now weigh less than what i did before him...however, i can not shift my mum-tum as i call it. I was not one of those women who's body naturally just pinged back to the same slim shape it was prior to bambino. My tummy will never be the same again (sob), its just permanently bulgy and even though it has shrunk, it is still there and not flat or smooth at all, unless i were to do a gazillion sit ups a day, and lets face it i'm not gunna, i will never have the dream flat stomach again. 
So supportive shapewear. I am all for it. 

 These Dresses have a fine support layer, kinda like a supportive petticoat, attached and underneath the actual dress. It supports, it smooths, it de-bulks. It works real well.  Having had a lot of personal experience with many a hold-u-in/shape-u type pants this for me was far more comfy.  It didnt squeeze me within an inch of my life but felt extremely supportive. It has a grip seam at thigh level which is very comfy and holds it securely in place and stops it rising. It smooths all the way down, leaving a more svelte appearance that i could not have been happier with, not only did it smooth the tummy area it worked the bum and thighs too (win win for a pear shape girl like me!)


 They have a few smart colours that would look great as office wear and would be comfy enough to wear all day. I went for this animal blue and black print and it had a great little tie detail on the waist too that added to the cinched in waist appearance that you want from a fitted dress. I would totally accessorize this dress for a wedding, or a smart occasion or even office wear for a meeting! It worked that well for me!
