Brides with Corset back dresses.....

Original post by Trishthedish

Can you please post a pic of the back of your dress with either you or the model in you dress? When I ordered my dress the woman suggested that I order a larger size so there won't be such a big gap where the corset is. I am jsut concerned b/c the sample dress was big on me as it is and they ordered my dress a size larger than that.

Thanks...

Re: Brides with Corset back dresses.....

I think the dress looks great on you as is... I don't think you CAN get the corset sides closer together.... any closer, and they'll touch each other and it will look like shoelaces!

I'm always suspicious of the stores ordering big dresses to increase the alteration fees. If it were larger, they'd have to take the whole thing apart basically to recreate what you already have in the smaller size!

My dress (no pix) has a wider opening in the corset than yours, and has a fabric panel in back of it....
