Hi everyone,
Thought I'd post to see if anyone has had a similar situation to mine. I tried on a lot of dresses with a certain style in mind, I couldn't ever find 'the one'. The sales lady decided to bring out a dress that had just come in and she thought it would be something different for me. I tried it on and I fell in love with it. It was different and very unique.
My dress just came in and I went in for my first fitting...and I felt the disappointment of the dress being a little too unique. I am wanting to alter the neckline to a sweetheart. I haven't seen a seamstress yet, but I am HOPING that the lace around the neckline can be removed and that it will be a somewhat simple thing to do. I have attached the image for you to see!
Anyone gone through this?
Thanks!
Re: Loved the neckline, now hating it!
I appreciate all of yall's feedback! The dress is beautiful, just still undecided about that crazy neckline...
I do plan on wearing a veil and I normally always wear my hair down. I have very long hair, so if I have it altered to sweetheart, I'll probably wear it down and curled.
If I keep the high neckline, I'll probably need to wear my hair up...
I think your dress is stunning, and not in a "too" unique sort of way either.
And, in my opinion, you could wear your hair down with this neckline still. In fact, I think if your hair is down the neckline is no longer the "attention draw-er", if that is what you are trying to avoid.
Wow, thanks everyone....now I'm actually starting to think I may keep the neckline. I'm normally not this indecisive lol.
Pet peeve: Please stop using the word unique, when you really mean "unusual". Unique means one of a kind, which this is not. YOU are unique, but the dress is not.
