As title really is this a bad idea id post a pic of the item im refering to but i cant seem to find something simlar im just worring that the flash might get reflected by the shiney glittery part of the dress and ruin the shot. Im new to this so appologies if this is a no brainer!

Take the flash off-camera, diffuse it, and learn to use a comma! :p

Gosh, that seems to be an unfriendly response to an honest question!

I gave the answer to the problem, and that was a polite suggestion from me. The original post was pretty hard to decipher.

You can also bounce the flash, will help a lot.

If you're gonna bounce flash, wrap it in rubber.

You could get some funky effects happening with two coloured strobes and a bounced flash :)
