Fashion Forms' Solutions for Sexy Dresses

Bristols Six Prevents Wardrobe Malfunctions
If you like concealers or pasties - or you're curious about how they can help make your clothes look better - check out the brand endorsed by celebrities, Bristols Six.
The British company makes concealers and pasties in conservative styles, in a range of nude shades to match every skin tone, to stay hidden under clothing. But they also make fancy styles that seem more suitable for a Burlesque dancer - or Lady Gaga. Be daring, and wear a pair on your next date-night!
All kidding aside, pasties can be practical. If your top or dress slips, they provide modesty - plus a smoother look. And concealers can be worn without a bra to make sure your outfit stays G-rated.
Burlesque dancer-turned-lingerie-designer Dita Von Teese endorses the brand - along with a slew of other celebrities - so you know they’re the real deal.
