Back fat!

Worried about my dress not being faltering! I just had my final fitting and now the pictures have me questioning if it looks too tight. The front piece is going to be tacked down so that skin at the bottom wont be showing. But does that back look too tight?

    I think you look beautiful! It looks like it is a little bit tight where it criss crosses and wraps around your neck, but it's not super noticeable. I only noticed because you pointed it out, and it could just be because the straps are twisted.

    It looks like the back material is supposed to meet. Is it designed to look that way? Honestly, the front is flattering but not a huge fan of the back.

    It looks too small, there is too much space opened in the back. The corset usually is not that skin exposing...it is like it is not big enough on top to cover you front and back. It looks like the front should have been made larger and it is taking some of the material from the back, not sure, but if you look at the dress models with corset backs, they are never that open in the back. It looks messy and just not sized correctly.
    Sorry to be a Debbie downer, and I really am just trying to be helpful, but I wouldn't be able to wear it like that. My reception dress is a corset back as well, but there is less than three inches at the top of the corset and nothing at the bottom, the material meets completely and I am a 38 DDD....so I know all about things being too small on top and having to have alterations. Your dress just looks too small on the top. If you are asking on here, then you probably already feel like there is an issue with it.
    You are a lovely girl, I would go back to the dress shop and have them make it perfect for you.

    Instead of the top two straps crisscrossing can they go straight up and down like regular straps? That might help.

    Back fat! 1 Back fat! 2

    In other pictures that is how the back is as well. My picture is not the most flattering because it was just a quick throw on to make sure the length was right. But I don't think my dress is as small for me as you have made it seem! Smiley smile thanks for the feedback though.

    No back fat at all. You look gorgeous. I have been thinking about the same thing my dress will be on on March 26 and it is a halter top. I keep thinking about that too.

    My long line bra really gives me back boobs. I am removing the train from my dress ( no reason except I don't want to fuss with it) Using fabric from train to create a 2 inch ruffle along the top of the back of the back of dress to cover it. I don't think that would work with your dress.

    The back looks like it should close just a tad bit more.

    I can see why you would be nervous but your back is fine in all honesty. There were no rolls poking through the strings which is the biggest concern. You truely dont need to worry.
