2nd Dress Fitting (PIP)

Dignity100

These are not the best pictures of me, I had the dress laced too tight (my own doing because I kept feeling like my boobs were going to fall out).  But here ya go:

Sorry this one is blurry - I was walking to see where my dress was still dragging and my MOH took the pic:


Not a fan of how much 'push up' my boobs are getting, so I'll have to play with the lacing/undergarments to figure out how to fix it.



The bustle - I'm pretty happy with how it turned out and that it blends with the dress so well.

It look great!  I kind of really hate bustles in general but yours is fantastic, you can't even see it!

Lovely! And I agree with everyone else, you can't even see the bustle.

Thanks ladies!!  My self-esteem is kinda at a low right now - I was hoping to be 40lbs+ lighter for the wedding, but it looks like it'll be more of 5-10lbs lighter because I waited until I was at the 12 week mark to worry about changing my diet to eating healthier (and gained a few after buying my dress, so I'm taking that into account to).  I just keep looking at the dress and seeing 2 things that I don't like - the ruching in the back doesn't photograph 'clean', then the bust line (and I think that's because I'm super modest and I can play with undergarments and maybe even safety pin or tack the dress to a bra).

You're getting SO close!!! I can't believe it! I agree, the bustle looks great. And I know the feeling of trying to shove those puppies into a more modest neckline. I'm sure your FI will think you're absolutely stunning no matter how much extra weight you may be carrying.

your dress is SO stunning and you look amazing in it.  Also, I wish I had your boobs.

I had the same boob issue, but without a corset dress. It looks like the issue is the cups aren't deep enough?

You look like a princess!

Thanks ladies @BreMr - LOL, you say that now. . . I'm probably just a little too modest for them. @audrewuh - At the 2nd fitting I was wearing a strapless bra, I think the strapless bra is giving too much 'lift' which is what it SHOULD do, but add in the structure of the corset and it's a little too much. I ordered a 'minimizer' and will try that one, I can always just get away with not wearing a bra, but I'm a little modest and feel more comfortable with it.

Don't be afraid to go bra-less. The corset will do it's job, I promise! Corset dresses are designed for big chested girls like us to go free for once in our lives!

You look just like a princess! Also, I think your boobs look great. Like @audrewuh said, though, don't be afraid to go braless. I'm a 36DD and if the clothing has the right structure, going braless is fine.

eeek getting so close you look great!!

Dignity100

Thanks ladies!! At this point I'm just playing with all my options, there's a good chance I may still go bra-less.
