Merino dress for a busty gal who doesn't want to look frumpy.

I did search the sub for this but not finding a good answer. I am a size 10-14 tall curvy woman with a large cup size. 34 I/J US or 34G UK. I really want a summer merino travel dress but everything I find is cut in a way that looks elegant on mid to smaller breasted woman but that will make me look frumpy or like I am wearing a tent. And since I can't try anything on I have been hesitate to buy one. I am looking for experience from other busty women about what worked fro them. Thanks in advance.

his is a trip report on my 11 days in Mexico. Link included. At the last min I added a 18 liter Osprey as my personal item so that I could use it for my 5 day solo trip and send my roller carry-on with a lot of my stuff home with my partners. (I did not need this bag for space just for the solo trip, so it was pretty empty on the trip out)

For the initial Trip 6 days in Akumal I used everything in my bag multiple times. It was humid so I changed clothes twice a day and let things dry out between activities. I regret not bringing another button down as I used the one I had a lot.

My MVPs were my OluKai Huia tennis shoes. I wore these most of the time. They are light breathable and dry quickly. With thin merino socks and my suoerfeet insoles they were comfortable for a lot of walking and outdoor activities. I only wore my sandals a couple of times in cenotes and to dinner once.

Doing underwear and bra laundry in my sink did not work well, it took them to long to dry and they smelled musty. In the future for trips under 2 weeks I'll just bring enough underwear. Bras I just need to wash one at a time and out in front of a fan to dry. Trips over 2 weeks I would find laundry but for only 11 day I didn't want to spend time dealing with that.

All in, I like what I have learned from the sub a lot and it's made more aware of what I bring and how things get used. That being said I think I will never be an ultra small one bagger. I am a tall curvy gal with a size 10 shoe who likes to look somewhat nice and have changes of clothing while I travel. Plus comfort items
