Bridesmaids dresses

I am getting a little antsy, MOH wants to be different.

We spotted two different dresses that we loved, one strapless and one deep v-neck (I will try to post pics).

MOH wants the strapless, and most BMs are ok with that, except 2 of my BMs are large busted. 1 doesn't mind showing a little cleave, well maybe a lot, I'm not sure because the dress didn't fit. The other BM NEVER, EVER shows cleavage.
She hasn't seen the dress in person, but online she didn't seem to excited about it.

My other BM say it's only 1 person, but I don't want her to be uncomfortable, that's most important, but I LOVE the dresses....I want to wear it!

HELP!!!! Advice needed.

i would look for different dresses if you're having this many issues already..you'll find some that fit everyone just right..they're out there!

I had the same problem. I told the one BM that if she really didn't want to wear strapless to have straps sewn on. She was totally cool with that and the dress looked great.

We had suggested a 'modesty' piece, where you put a piece of material to cover up some cleavage, but that takes away from the whole dress, I think.

And not knowing how they are going to look is even worse, why do they make sample so small? You can take them in, but it's hard to let them out....

Have you had the larger chested girls try it on? Mine did and they wouldn't even walk out of the dressing room. Because the v goes down to the line, and the lines for those things NEVER fit big busted girls, the v would have to be down to their navel to fit. I would not want my BMs to be uncomfortable and to be honest, I can't see anyone with larger boobs being comfortable in that dress.

Maybe it's just me. I really liked the Dessy dress until I saw it in person. The V is so low that it just looked tacky. I had 2 girls with me: one busty, the other pretty flat. It did nothing for the flatter-chested girl, while it made the larger chested girl look ridiculous. If you have someone who is large breated & uncomfortable showing cleavage, I'd reconsider the dress. I don't think it's a MUST that every BM likes the chosen dress, but being uncomfortable because your breasts are hanging out is something else entirely.

Can straps be added to the Bill Levkoff dress to accommodate your larger chested BMs? I decided against strapless because 2 of my girls are very full on top & I knew how uncomfortable they'd feel all day.

Good luck!

Re: Bridesmaids dresses

the way i feel about BM dresses and the drama


if you have more then 2 girls at all...tell them what dress thay HAVE to wear- or their out.

You are the bride...tell them what they need to wear- cause if you give them Any power of choice, they will never come to a decision
