Hi ladies! Anyone purchase a strapless dress and then add straps/sleeves? Can you post before and afters? Thanks so much!


This is my strapless dress. But I want straps. The boutique said alterations could easily do it but I don’t know what kind of straps I really want. I originally thought Off the shoulder but now I don’t know. Adding straps to strapless dress 1

    My cap sleeves can be on or off the shoulder. My seamstress recommended off for the ceremony and on for the reception.

    Not my dress, but was an option. It originally came with spaghetti straps, but I love the off the shoulder look. They were going to add on straps that matched the lacing on the bust area.
