something like this
I agree with Sophialee. The dress is beautiful but the lean mean dress she picked would be mindblowing on you!

My mom has a degree in fashion design, my father was in the couture business. So, I hope I can help some.
My opinion is that that particular dress will overwhelm you. You are small and petite, and the skirt is just too big for you.
Do you insist on strapless? Would you consider cap sleeves, which would look great on a small, petite, not very busty gal. I am not a big fan of strapless for tiny, non-busty gals myself. I think a scoop neckline, a halter neckline, anything is better than strapless for you.
The skirt on this dress is way too big for a tiny girl. I agree with another poster that you need a skirt that fits closer to your body than this one. Trumpet would be nice or anything not too big.
Do you have any other dresses you like that you can post?

You do know most of us would love to be tiny and petite--with no weight problems--like you, don't you?

I am not saying this to be mean or hurtful. I would not have mentioned it at all if you hadn't of asked.

Personally, I think the dress would look better on someone with a little larger bust line. Not that there is anything wrong with your boobies, but the dress is designed to EMPHASIZE the boobie region and I just think it would look better on a larger-busted person.

It is just my opinion. You should wear whatever you want to wear and whatever you will feel beautiful in.

I like the first one, but I'm still worried how the strapless will work with small boobies. I'd really have to see you in it. If you don't have any other choice, I'd go with this one.

The second one is pretty but I think the ruffles are too much on a small frame.

I hate the third one. Low cut "V" necks like that and small boobies don't work.

The second one definitely. The ruching/gathering and the way it criss-crosses, sweetheart bustline, plus the tight hourglass fit will add curves on your tiny frame. You will be a vision!

Absolutely! In fact, most all the young brides I know couldn't pull off this particular dress. They're not tiny enough in the right places to make it work. You can! You'll be a knockout!

ETA: Some here have pointed out that you aren't overly endowed in the bustline department (gladly trade places with you) but that can be remedied easily with the right kind of bra. They have some that make even the tiniest chest appear very full. *That could well not even be a concern after trying the dress on.*
