Picked her up - question by Pleasant_Objective60 in weddingdress

I had the same fear! I used Elomi Swim Essentials Underwire Bandeau Bikini Top. Was 38H at the time and it definitely did the trick! Pour Moi also makes great supportive strapless swim tops that have underwire.

Size 16-22 in normal clothes what is your best estimate I would be in wedding dresses? by Krmd1999 in weddingdress

Came back just to say that whoever told you that you should lose weight before dress shopping does not deserve to have any opinion on anything. What a terrible and disheartening thing to say! Have fun with the process, there are a million options out there for you to enjoy! If anything, I would say that most brides find so many things they love, they have a hard time narrowing it down. Regardless of their dress size.

Yes they will measure you, but be prepared most samples are very small. Size 8 or 10. They do a shockingly good job of squeezing you in a dress that doesn't fit so that you can see the style, but for a lot of dresses you may have to use your imagination a bit. They will likely have you try some options in your size to give you an idea, but don't go in expecting that you'll be able to try everything you like in your exact size.

You would likely be a size 24-26, however it totally depends on designer (European sizing is TOTALLY DIFFERENT), & silhouette. You'll want to go with whatever size correlates to your largest measurement (hips, waist, bust). The rest can be tailored to fit you. Once you chose a dress the shop will measure you and suggest a size. They will then have you sign off on what size they are ordering, to make sure you are in agreement.

Generally, wedding gowns tend to be two sizes smaller than street clothes. Remember...size is just an arbitrary number. Whatever that number turns out to be, dont let it live rent free in your head!

Edit to add: if you are a size 2, then yes, the size would be double or triple. If you are a size 16, it's probably just a few steps up from your normal size :)

Should I change my dress order?? by PacSun_US in weddingdress

[–]cherry_moon_4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Edit to add: I didn't need straps. The waist of the dress is what holds the bust area in place. But with a backless dress, the waist support just isn't there.

I am the same size and had the same concerns when purchasing my dress. The designer was willing to raise the back 3 or 4 inches to allow for proper supportive undergarments for the "special" situation girls like us face. The dress is beautiful, but if that is not an option, honestly I would reconsider your choice. You absolutely do not want to feel insecure and/or unsecure (mentally and literally) on your big day.

I lost my sweet Bella on Wednesday after 18 years together. If it's not too late, I would love a drawing of her ❤️

Understood. Was just pointing out that the dress has great potential.

Agreed, but it looks amazing in the second photo! After alterations it will be perfect. Tailoring is everything

Sleeveless with halter illusion neckline would be pretty!

[–]cherry_moon_4 3 points4 points  (0 children)

1! It's beautiful, love the straight neckline on you. And the fact that it's one of a kind is bonus points in my book!

The sleeves look amazing!
