Looking for a topper/"jacket" for my dress - where should I look?

R, on November 28, 2017 at 5:16 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 12

Hi everyone -

I bought a strapless dress yesterday from David's Bridal (yay, Cyber Monday!) I'm looking for a lace "topper" to give it sleeves and a little more coverage on top.

Basically, my dream dress would look something like this:

My actual dress is pictured below. I'm looking for a lace topper that will make it a little more like the dream dress! (Long sleeves, 3/4, or half sleeves are fine.)

My favorite lace topper is this one, but there's no way I can spend $600:

My budget for this is $200, and I will need it in the next couple of weeks!

Does anyone have any suggestions for where to look? I tried David's bridal and didn't like their selection.

Thank you!

    Etsy has some, I bought one off of Poshmark. The seller decided not to use it and couldn't return it so I got it for a steal.

    That topper is freaking amazing, though.

    Another option would be to look for a bodysuit. They have gotten pretty popular so you can find them in department stores or dance stores and not worry about shipping/not getting it in time. Might not totally be the look you are going for but could work in a pinch if it's something you really want

    eta: it would go under your dress instead of over the dress which might actually be good in your case because it wouldn't cover the lace and design you already have on your dress

    Amazon also has some cute ones. They have one that is kind of like the topper you found but it's 35.00.

    Etsy has really cute and decent priced ones. I'm looking at one that's $95. I'm also looking on Morning Lavender, this website has more casual lace toppers for under $70.
