Dress Shopping Dilemma

Original post by NPTbride

Thread views: 1,526

I went to Lillettes today for my 10:30 appointment with Jerri. Unfortunately she ended up working with another bride and Carol helped me. I was disappointed because I had heard so many awesome things about Jerri.

Carol had a 12 appointment and after an hour and a half I didn't fall in love with anything.

My major issue is that I am looking for the perfect dress style that will enhance my bust! Its not like I want to look like Pamela Anderson but I don't want to look like a pancake either on my wedding day.

Does anyone have any suggestions for a neckline style that will help my cause? The other thing I like is an A-line skirt.

TIA

Re: Dress Shopping Dilemma

Thanks for the advice Christen. I always ruled out a halter neck because I thought you needed to have a chest to pull that off.

I will continue trying on dresses.

I think sweetheart dresses are supposed to be more flattering on smaller women - myself included. Sorry you had such a bad experience but I'm sure you'll find the right dress. I think a lot of decoration, whether it be a pattern or beads up there also adds some umph.

i'm a 34 C (C because i'm thick not busty) but i have a strapless dress that does enhance b/c of the sewn in bra and elaborate beadwork and satin on the top - i dont look much larger but its just a little more umph that makes it more flattering - it also has an A line skirt.

its Mon Cheri 24200 in the best sellers category - i'm not home right now so i dont have access to my computer its saved on.

Good luck you will be gorgeous in anything!!!

If only it were that easy for you DD girls to share with me!

Thank you for the feedback about the beading and the sweatheart neckline. That definitely makes a lot of sense.

I may take a break from shopping this week, but I'll be back at it after labor day.
