Bustier Tattoo

Would this dress be ok for a formal wedding?

Here's the deal, the bride for this wedding was my bridesmaid-zilla. I am not super-skinny (I'm around a size 16), I have a very large tattoo on my upper right arm and I would prefer to keep it covered for this wedding so the bride doesn't flip out on me (I do think she would). I'm not ancient, but I am in my 30's and am very busty so strapless, halter or low-backed dresses are not something I care to wear.

Wedding is New Years Eve and bride has said it is "extremely formal" but has said to wear what I look good in and that floor-length or cocktail length is fine. My husband (bride's brother) is wearing a tux & walking her down the aisle. I've been leaning towards a floor length dress, but this one caught my eye and I was wondering if I could get away with it.

what do you think?

Ok... this is not quite formal enough for a formal wedding. (Although I must admit, I love it! I would totally try to get away with it too. lol) But I know better. lol. I also understand about being busty, tattooed and on the big side, myself. And I can see from looking on the web that flattering dresses in a size 16 are few and far between, especially when you want a sleeve on it... a lot of them look frumpy. lol But here are a few I found.
