Q: In the summer of 2008, I bought an adorable Be-Bop dress at TJ Maxx. This is what the dress looks like, only mine is a soft yellow:

Well, my mom threw it in the wash and now it is shrunken down to virtually a mini dress. The band that is supposed to be around my ribcage now barely goes below my breasts. I feel awful, because if I were to put on 5 pounds it might not fit anymore.
The main problem is that the dress is now so tight that you can see the outline of my bra (straps and all, in the front and back) bulging through the fabric. It looks very unappealing, and you can see through especially because it is such a light-colored dress, even if the bra is yellow. Is there anything I can do about it? I've tried a strapless/pushup bra, but I have small breasts... I'm 32A. Strapless bras are always sliding down because I have nothing to hold up.
