So my dress came in and I was super excited to go try it on, I had ordered it a size smaller and was eager to see if I lost enough weight. The good news is it fits , but the bad news is I look like I have no chest! My dress has a sweetheart neckline and when I orginally tried it on the sample size was so big I did not give much thought to how chest looked in it. I know they can take it in a little but I feel like the rise on the neck is so high and there is so much room in the cup area that I look flat chested. Has anyone else had this problem ? Is there anyway to modify the neckline?

Well.. congrats on fitting into the smaller size!!! Can they put cups in the dress to fill it out?? Did they have any suggestions for you?? Do you have pics??

My dress is a sweetheart neckline too and i am wearing a padded corset with it because i found that without it i look flat chested. So maybe think about getting one of those.

I have the same problem!!, u can see in my pics that my dress came in and the whole bodice is too loose on me. They have to take it all in and what I'm gonna do is wear a Longline bra. Tomorrow when I'm on the computer i will FM you the bra site :)

They can sew a bra into it. Go get that one from Victorias secret that adds 2 cup sizes!

Thanks everyone, Im going to definatly ask about the double cups I never thought of that! I didn't get a chance to ask questions because I haven't gone for a fitting yet , just to check it out. It makes me feel so much better I'm not the only one who has this issue.

Don't worry about the first time you try on your dress. Like you, I lost a good deal of weight after ordering my dress. When I went for my first fitting, I couldn't help but feel upset when I saw it. Nothing fit me right. Well I just got back from my second fitting and it was AWESOME. Alterations work wonders! Deff put 2 cups in. I don't even want to tell you how much padding is on my chest (I also couldn't fill out my sweetheart neckline). Believe me, they will make it fit you perfectly!!!!!!!

Some padding will definitely make the difference. Congrats on fitting the smaller size!

was it the bra you were wearing??
Are you asking me?? I wasn't wearing a bra in my photos if that's what you're asking. I was told by the shop to order this bra because it lifts you up :) I'm a DD I need it lol

I think once they take it in, it will fit you like a glove so it won't look like you have a lot of room in the cup, no?

Have your seamstress put the fake boobie pads in there. I don't know the proper term for them but I always make them sew those suckers in bc I'm small chested too. I'm in a wedding in a few weeks and I'm wearing two strapless bras as it adds more volume.
Don't stress - you prob look beautiful. Remember some of the pretties woman are small chested....Gwen Stefani, Deborah Messing, Kate Hudson, Katie Holmes.....
