Good dress to conceal an ostomy bag?

Topic Explanation:
The forum discussion is centered around finding a dress that effectively conceals an ostomy bag. The original poster is seeking opinions on whether a particular dress is a good option for this purpose.

Advice and Insights:
1. The dress is considered a good choice for concealing an ostomy bag, especially for those with a lower stoma placement.
2. The dress may not be suitable for everyone, particularly if it is too snug around the rib cage or if the wearer has concerns about arm coverage.
3. For those who prefer not to wear sleeveless dresses, adding a shawl, lace jacket, or gauze topper can help conceal arms and potentially the ostomy bag.
4. Jackets are recommended as a versatile option for hiding the bag and providing additional coverage.
5. The dress length is appreciated by taller individuals, but shorter individuals may need to make adjustments.
6. Personal preferences, such as sticking to jeans and a shirt, are also mentioned as alternatives for comfort and concealment.
