Opinions! My Dress doesnt fill out up top!

melissa, on August 2, 2016 at 10:46 AM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 18

I've had my final dress fitting and it fits GREAT! However, I look completely flat chested because the dress is strapless, low in the back and is heavy with beading, tulle etc up front. They have already sewn thin cups in but suggested taping to actually give lift and a little more support. Has anyone else had any experience with this? They gave me the option to go back and sew in a thicker cup but I'm pressed for time and live hours away from the bridal shop... any opinions would be great!

    Can you post pictures? It's hard to come up with a solution without being able to actually see the issue.

    Only one I took at the fitting and is slightly misleading. Looks like I actually have something there to fill it out!

    I think it looks just fine (hard to tell since so far away). I see cleavage and it looks like it fits well.

    It looks amazing on you. I agree with OGKathryn. It looks like it fits you well.

    We are our worst critics. I think it looks fine. Do you have any friends/family members who would give an honest opinion if they see you in the dress in person?

    I think it looks great! If you're super worried, you can always get cups sewn in to the dress to help with lift Smiley smile

    I think you look amazing! (This is coming from a fellow boobly challenged woman.) As long as you're comfortable, you're good to go.

    I also think it looks great. I see enough cleavage that you do not look flat chested.

    Those silicone "cutlets" are awesome! Try those out. I got mine from Aerie but pretty much every lingerie store carries them.

    Unpopular opinion, though it looks great, I kiiiiiiinda see what you mean when I enlarged the picture (no pun intended). But I wouldn't have seen it if you hadn't pointed it out! Is there a seamstress closer to home that you would trust with sewing slightly bigger cups? You're close to your date so let me add again that I wouldn't have seen it if I hadn't read an introduction before looking at the dress!

    Thank you so much ladies!! But yes, the picture LOOKS as if I have it but I really don't in person! HA! And the only person close to me is the FH, everyone else is out of state. I guess from everyone's opinion I might just go with the flow and leave my dress how it is! I just over think everything Smiley smile Thanks again ladies!!

    It looks like it's tight through the rib cage and therefor sliding down and riding low- which is giving you a flat chested look- me thinks needs more structure in the waist so it sits higher up and allows your boobs to fill out the dress.
