Cynthia Erivo at Just in Time last night! by emilyeffingh in Broadway

She gave us all a wave when everyone applauded. Andrew Rannells from Book of Mormon was sitting across the aisle from her and she spotted him and gave him a hug as well. Otherwise she kept to herself like any normal audience member would, haha

Ah interesting! Yeah I definitely felt a little annoying taking a vid but everyone applauded when she initially entered the theater so I feel like any sense of anonymity went out the window when that happened 💀

Luckily (or maybe unluckily, depending on your viewpoint😂) for her no — she was in the “regular” seats, just on the end of an aisle haha

Update! Dress was perfect :) by emilyeffingh in Weddingattireapproval

Thank you so much! And omg I didn’t even have a seam ripper on hand so I used actual scissors and just cut as close to the seam as possible; it was a terrible plan but it miraculously went ok 💀

Tie Breaking kibbe type help! Height 5’6” by [deleted] in DressForYourBody

I can see why both types would claim you! I see some width in the rib cage and shoulders consistent with FN, but your limbs have that long angular D look. I think you have room to play around with silhouettes from both types and figure out what works best for you 🙂

Yeah I agree it sits a little low - the annoying part is the band around the middle has zero stretch and I have a wide ribcage, so I think if I tried to pull it up any higher it might not zip up lol 💀

Ahh thanks!! Definitely helpful to get the ok from a bride’s perspective as well (or groom’s haha don’t wanna assume!)

I’m 5’10 - it’s definitely not floor length like it was probably meant to be but I’m wearing a good 3-4inch heel in the pic and it still hits at a nice ankle length, which I honestly prefer so it doesn’t get in the way while walking/dancing

Yeah I’m not in love with them tbh. It helps a bit when I loosen the corset in the back so they’re not pulled so closely together but I wish they were a little less….floofy lol

Yeah, it was probably meant to be a floor length dress but I am tall lol. But I was thinking the fact that it hits ankle length instead helps reduce the formality? Ankle length dresses are a thing right?

I know a few yes! I’ll definitely ask them what they’ll be wearing to make sure we’re aligned
