Please help- Dress

Hi Ladies,

This is a little long so I apologize in advance! I bought my original wedding dress last year but was diagnosed with breast cancer shortly after. I just finished my reconstructive surgery in December and unfortunately my dress no longer fit for various reasons. (Macy's gave me a full refund..can't say enough about that). I found a dress this weekend and fell in love with it but I'm having a hard time with it being strapless (new boobs seem lower than before lol). I can get straps added or leave as is. I would be so grateful if you could look at the pics I saved in my album and let me know what you think. My family and friends are too nice...afraid to hurt my feelings so I would greatly appreciate your honest opinions.

Thank you

It's beautiful on you! I don't think you need the straps, but if it makes you more comfortable, then get them. Once the dress is altered to fit you, you won't think twice about it! Congrats!

You look beautiful! I think it just looks off because it hasn't been tailored to your body yet. But really, if you didn't say anything I never would have thought anything of it, it looks great!

It is a beautiful dress and it looks amazing on you!! I think it looks great strapless, but you should do whatever will make you feel best and comfortable ! :)

You look incredible!! I wouldn't add straps but I do know that sometimes straps make it a little more comfortable so you're not adjusting all night. However, if you like it and comfortable without straps you should leave it without!

I really like it strapless! I think it looks fabulous without the strap, and once it is fitted during alterations it will fit like a glove

Strap or no strap it is GORGEOUS on you!!! I think either way works too.. if you're more comfortable with the strap, then add it!!

I am sorry to hear about your diagnosis! Hope you are doing better. The dress looks great on you, strap or no strap!

You look gorgeous! It's a corset back, so once you have it on in your size and eventually tailored to your body, it'll fit wonderfully. And I'm so glad to hear you're kicking cancers a$$!!

You look beautiful, I love the dress!! Do what makes you feel your best but I don't think you need straps. Good luck on your decision :)

I agree with everyone else. Once it is altered to fit the right way, you won't need the straps. However, if it's more comfortable - the straps look good too. I love this dress!
