Thoughts on my dress?

Thoughts on my dress? 1
Sophia Tolli Annika #Y22066


I just bought my dress last week! It’s not what I expected to love, and I never had that Wow Moment with tears and whatnot. But I do love it and feel it makes the most sense, practically. It’s very light and flowy, it has an entire layer of sequined lace for sparkle, I like the straps and cut of the neckline. I was worried about a strapless dress emphasizing my already-broad shoulders. I just want some unbiased opinions! My wedding is in June of 2022.
Also, should I get a petticoat? I don’t want it slipping between my legs when I’m walking.

    It looks stunning on you!! I didn't have that emotional, teary reaction to my dress either yet I absolutely love it. I'd try it with a petticoat just to see how it would look

    This looks great on you. Try a petticoat if you want some poof. I wouldn't get it added to the dress if you end up liking it. My cousins wife took hers off in the corner of the ballroom halfway through the reception she said it was too hot. Just an option!

    Thank you!! I was thinking of buying a slim a-line petticoat to keep it from between my legs and add a little fullness.

    Thank you for the kind words! I love that it is only a few layers, so it’s light and has a lot of movement. I can’t wait to get my proper size, this sample dress was a 12. I’m a street size 16. I also had to order extra length because I’m 6ft tall. I want to see if my seamstress will just hem the front so I don’t trip, instead of all the way around, taper it and leave the extra length on the back!
