Dress help! Visible seam allowance lines.

Dress help! Visible seam allowance lines. 1
Hello everyone!
I noticed these very visible lines on my dress.
The lines are as a result of the seems where the fabric folds/where it is sewn.
The fabric isn’t particularly thin.
How do I get rid of them or minimise their appearance? I fear it makes the dress look cheap.

    Are your alterations complete? The seams probably just need to be pressed flat.

    Unfortunately, its probably just the nature of the fabric. Some are much more susceptible to showing seams than others. It looks like your is crepe? Mine is crepe and I also have a similar situation.

    Welcome to the WeddingWire community, Vicky Smiley smile As the PP mentioned, did you speak with your seamstress about the lines? He/she may know of a way to minimize their appearance.
