Seriously people. I am 5'5'' and weigh about 120 pounds. ANY excess stomach shows in anything since I am thin. Bloating, eating a large meal, things like that. I've had people ask me about my "baby" before in regular clothes and yes it makes me feel bad. I don't see why you people don't get that. FYL for sure. I feel you. And $500 for a dress is her business. That's not exactly the point. She had on nice clothes and someone thought she was preggo. She's obviously not, she felt bad. That's the point.

#124: STFU. Who says the dress made her look fat, it was a flowy dress it makes EVERYONE look pregnant. Honestly because the seem is high under the boobs and then it flows out, so please just stop talking. And taking a train is really easy for people to do with maybe a train card, somewhere to go fast, and who doesn't have a car. who cares if she bought a 500 dollar dress, omfg gasp she got a 500 dollar dress but ruined it on a smelly train. This could be in D.C where most of their trains are really nice and clean not NYC gosh get your head out of your ass people.

DUMB!

Wow sorry to hear about that. You must be pissed but i dont know whatits like to be a chick so ill stay out of this

she obviously lives in nyc where taking the train is often faster than a cab and plenty of people wear clothes more expensive than that but take the train just bc its convenient. i wear stuff that expensive on the train every single day, she was just sad that some jerk thought she looked pregnant in it since it was probably empire waisted and flowy which makes even size 0 supermodels look pregnant sometimes.

Yeah - I assume this is to do with some of the more recent fashions which are truly bizarre. But surely the dress shop had a mirror and a change room in it? So how did you miss the fact that the dress made you look pregnant when you tried it on? ... You did try it on in the shop before buying it, didn't you?? You said you looked great in the dress, so I assume you checked yourself in the mirror before you left the house. You still didn't see that it made you look pregnant? Or maybe you *are* pregnant, and didn't notice that the dress didn't hide the fact? I still don't see this is an FML - more like a F your shopping skills. Of course I may be making assumptions that aren't valid - feel free to explain what I've missed.

500$ for a dress?!?!?!.... it should be made out of gold.. if not.... F your life for buying a 500$ dress

Ok, I've read a couple more posts here. so I would like to add: If you truly do look FAB in the dress (you said you did), then ignore one guy who misinterpreted it. Nothing you wear will please everyone. Even if you got onto the train buck naked - someone would still complain... So the question is: do you look FAB in the dress? If so that's great and you haven't wasted anything (except possibly the time writing an FML). If you look pregnant or just bad in the dress, then maybe you did waste $500. But I still don't see how it can be both ways at once. Again, feel free to explain what I've missed.

who would pay $500 on a dress, who could afford it with the way the economy is right now!

@133: People who both have over $500 of disposable income, and want a dress.
