i'm going to a wedding reception in august and I want a maxi dress, it's quite informal (hippy wedding) so i don't want anything too dressy. I quite like this one but not the racer back

i got this one, it looks a bit 'festival' but think it will fit in with everyone else

That is nice but i know there is no way my boobs would fit in as i have tried AX stuff before and its been like a boob explosion!!

probably will have the same problem kate, I hate having big boobs!

I like this one, you could get away with clear bra straps or skin coloured bra:

if you wanted to buy the original dress you posted marks and spencers do bras thats have a little clip on them to back them racer back when you want. i love mine, it's really useful for dress with silly backs
