Ahhhhhh!

So I trade one problem for another and it's crunch time ladies. 😑😑😑😑😑

My dress was altered down two sizes, but I feel he took off a bit too much up top! I've lost over 100 lbs and have a lot of loose skin. I haf an abdominalplasty and brachialplasty done a year ago, but still had the lose skin around the "bra buldge" are and found now that the dress fits me, I get a little bit of roll over on the back of my strapless gown, and especially around my arm pits if I lift my arms..... other wise I look amazing! 😅 the "boob issue" I had earlier is gone now that it fits perfect..

Is there something I can do, taping maying to keep this lax skin down where it belongs under the dress? 😳

Hey Jessica! I'm so happy to hear that your dress looks amazing on you! I don't doubt it!!
What style dress is it?😃
Are you wearing any shapewear with your dress? Would it be possible to use this to keep everything in place for your wedding?
If you are feeling conscious about any excess skin in your dress, I think that using tape might actually work for you. I have no experience with this and I have heard that it can be quite painful but I read an article that Kim Kardashian actually uses duct tape when wearing low cut dresses to keep everything in place. It may be something to consider.
That being said, no one will be scrutinizing your appearance on your wedding day and you will look absolutely beautiful regardless. What is most important is that you feel happy, confident and comfortable on your special day!

😂😂 Thank you!

I hate to admit I was freaking out a bit I'll be honest. With everything going down tomorrow it's just kind of overwhelming and crazy!

I did end up getting some nude KT tape and do believe I have a very good idea of what I want to do with it to pull everything into place. I saw some reviews for a KT tape called "Rocktape" but unfortunately no one around me carries it, so just went with a regular KT tape.

My dress is a strapless Maggie Sottero "Emma." Corset style gown.
