Too much Cleavage??

Veronica, on February 17, 2018 at 9:53 PM

Posted in Etiquette and Advice 42

I need help. So I said yes to a dress and all my bridesmaids and mother loved it. But when I showed it to my mother in law she freaked and hated that my cleavage was so revealing. Does it look too trampy?

    It's definitely there but it doesn't look bad. I'm not a fan of cleavage and I'm not at all bothered by this so I think you're good to go! It's a beautiful dress!

    A little revealing but not trampy at all. As long as you are comfortable don't let anyone else get you down

    It’s a very beautiful dress, but honestly I think it might be a little too sexy without some alterations making it a little less low cut. I personally wouldn’t want to show that much cleavage in front of all my relatives and FH’s relatives. I’m sure during alternations they could easily make it a little less sexy though.

    If you think its too much then maybe theres someway you can have it altered to bring up the line. However, I wouldn't do that unless YOU want too

    I think it looks great. As long as you are comfortable that is all that matters.

    I think it’s a bit too much cleavage. It distracts from how beautiful the dress is.

    Looks great on you! If you can rick it confidently and not be self conscious the entire wedding day then wear it.

    i personally would be too self conscious and I kniow my FI wouldn’t love it. Maybe you can add some lace at the V.

    I think it's a bit much. It takes away from you in the dress.

    If your getting married somewhere that requires you to be dress modestly, then yes, it's too low. Otherwise, rock that dress! It's gorgeous. Your husband will surely love it! The ONLY reason my girls will be covered, is because of a tattoo that I'd rather not have in my wedding pics. I think this dress is subtly sexy. Love it.

    I think the dress looks great!! If you are getting married in a place of worship I would check the guidelines - you may have to put in a modesty panel that you can remove for the reception.

    I wanted to agree with Sara P about the opiniated MIL's lately: between that, "firing bridesmaids and/or MOH" and "cash bar/open bar"......it has been a wild few weeks on WW.

    I don't think it is too much, but will you be comfortable? That is the real question. It doesn't look trashy and I have a strapless, sweetheart neckline and there is cleavage for sure.

    OMG, i HATE that women do this to each other. Girl you got BOOBS, (same as me! 32DDD here so i feel your pain) they stick out from your body. You cant hide them, nor should you be shamed into doing so. I've been called trampy while wearing staff shirts I was assigned to wear. Do YOU. You're GORGEOUS AF in that dress. If YOU love it thats all that matters, if YOU feel like it reveals to much then thats the opinion that matters.

    I love it. I am pretty jelly right about now, by the way.

    It is your wedding, not your mother in laws. If you love it, that is all that matters.

    There will be hundreds of outfits she will hate over the years...your wedding dress does not get to be one you change for her. If you love it...then there is your answer...do not change a thing.

    The dress is beautiful. Did you buy off the rack or is this just a sample that’s clipped? If so when it’s ordered in your size and altered right to you, it may sort itself out
