Are They All STRAPLESS???

I have been searching for pics of BM dresses that have some sort of sleeve. It seems they are all strapless and I do not just want to add spaghetti straps b/c of large topped girls and it's not enough support.
Any pics?

My girls are wearing an Alfred Sung dress that's sleeveless, but not spaghetti straps for that exact reason.

do you want sleeves or a halter or a vneck??? i found vneck tea length dresses for my girls at JCrew. I also liked a lot of dresses from jimhjelm. We went and tried on a lot of BM dresses and there are non-strapless ones out there!! good luck!

One of my BM's wore a dress with straps - It's Bill Levkoff Style 355. It's 2 piece with a corset back and a little train.

I had the same problem!!!! One of my girls has a really large chest and cannot even wear a strapless bra. But, we ended up getting strapless dresses (Bill Levkoff) and she is going to have thick straps added on to hers so that she can wear her regular bra. We just decided on this two days ago and went to Burtons where they are going to add the straps. They showed us exactly what it would look like and it seems like it is going to look good. It is very difficult to find a dress that has thick enough straps AND is high enough in the back. Although we did discover that a V neck dress is the most flattering for large chested people.

My BM dresses had straps and they were by
impressions. Sorry I dont have any pictures.

I believe that Watters had a selection of bridesmaids dresses with various forms of straps and sleeves. www.watters.com

It's worth giving a try - the WTOO is bridesmaids dresses as well as the regular bridesmaids section. They have a lot of beautiful options and the prices aren't through the roof.

I had similar issues with my BMs. The BMs and I chose this dress.

Check out www.billlevkoff.com

I think v-necks or square necks are good for larger busted girls...as opposed to high necks.www.billlevkoff.com

I had trouble, too, so much IS strapless. I ended up with these which are spaghetti strap halter.

Here's the dress we wore for my friend's wedding--one of the big chested girls had a 'privacy panel' that was placed across the V neck, and it looked perfectly fine.

ETA: Our dresses were Laundry and we bought them at either bloomies or lord and taylor for about $200 (it was on sale for less at L & T).
