Come on. Don't call yourself ugly. You're super cute and look great in that dress, and if you know it then that's the one to go with. Ooze the confidence!
The Parlor is a weird place, and I haven't been in several years, but when I was last there, the dress was a mix of Microsofties in jeans and t-shirts and girls wearing short skirted club wear with shoes I could never walk in, so I think you are set with the first dress and whatever shoes you can walk in without killing yourself.

I vote for the first or 2nd dress too....you look great and should wear whatever makes you feel good. As far as shoes...I suck with advice for that because heels and I don't mix and flip flops are not appropriate for any of those dresses lol Perhaps a nice black or metallic set of heels?
Wear the dress you posted a pic in. It looks fantastic. I agree it needs heels. And I'd be tempted to shorten it to knee length to show off your legs as much as possible. Wear a bright red lipstick and fucking show those assholes.

I had the same thought about length. I'd definitely have it shortened as well. That length is so unflattering on almost everybody and I see it's come back (I remember it being very big in the 90's).

I love the top half of the first dress, it looks amazing on you. But I don't love the length, I think its kind of matronly. If you could get it shortened I'd def go with that one, if not I would keep looking.

I love the first dress. Don't love #2. I'm sure you look great in #3 too. I'd wear whatever you put on that makes you feel like a gorgeous powerful vixen.
I don't feel comfortable in anything but midi length yet. Maybe if I lose 30 pounds. Heh
Stop. You look great. Do us a favor and pin or tape that skirt up maybe three inches, so that it's just below the knee, (like it is on the model) then toss on some heels and take another shot. I promise you that you'll like the look of the second shot better.
I agree with others that it's worth considering making #1 shorter. I think being able to see the curve of the calf to the knee is flattering, no matter the size of the person. Having anything stop at the widest point is not usually the most flattering. I get not being comfortable, but I think you might be surprised at how great it looks & you may end up being more comfortable. (I am about your size & shape, too. Please be kind to yourself...we may not be skinny, but we are beautiful! There are VERY few things someone your/our size cannot pull off if we can convince ourselves to be confident.)
But at the end of the day, you need to do what feels best to you! If you fold it up shorter and feel uncomfortable like that, then longer will be a better length for you. If you feel better, you look better!
#1 fo sho, but I agree with trying it about 3 inches shorter. Right now its cutting you off at an odd spot, plus if you wear heels it'll make it look even better
