Have a fitting next Wed, need opinions on the neckline of my dress...

This isnt a fitting to fit the dress to me its so the seamstress can work on the neckline of my dress.

I think the current neckline is WAY too conservative and would like to show a little collarbone action... wondering if I should to a sweetheart? Something else? I dont know a THING about necklines...



One proposal the woman at the store had was to make it a sweetheart... she pinned it that way in this pic...


More pics of my dress are in my albums if you are curious.. I just dont know how to tastefully lower the neckline without it looking weird. Any opinions?

I think a sweetheart neckline would be gorgeous!! Maybe a little more than what she pinned IMO.

I agree, the sweetheart should come down more.

I think she sould make the top part more narrow but coming from the sleeves & then gradually going into a sweatheart.

Definitely make it a sweatheart neckline. I LOVE that veil too. It's beautiful.

I'm thinking that this would be a perfect watch to wear when you walk down the aisle. Plus, you could play Zelda if you got bored during your vows.

Definitely!! Something 'blue'

I say change it to a sweetheart, more than what she pinned. I'm doing that to mine as well. Much more flattering. Keep us posted!

The dress needs to follow a line, and a sweetheart neck does not follow the line. I think that an EXCELLENT option, that will follow the line, and show off some of your pretty collarbone is a SCOOP NECK.
The dress is MAGNIFICENT.

First allow me say that I get a little misty around the eyes when I see you in your dress

I do agree with the girls and say go for the sweetheart neckline. I think I am going to do that with my dress too.

I like the sweetheart better. To me, it falls across your chest in a much more flattering way... you look constricted with the original neckline... I say go for it! Beautiful train on the dress by the way... .it's like a little surprise in the back!

Good luck!

Yes do the sweetheart only lower and don't worry about showing too much skin because it's only your neck and you will look beautiful.
