Dress back

I'd think the only thing you could do to cover your back in this is add a panel. Maybe a similar lace panel would look nice?

Bridal capes have also been trending this year. Maybe a bridal cape instead of a veil could give you a little bit of coverage?

View Quoted Comment Never thought of a bridal cape. That is definitely a good idea.

I second having alterations add a back panel. It will look like that was how the dress was designed. The back of my dress was all open and alterations put in a beautiful lace back panel that looked like that was the way it was supposed look.

View Quoted Comment This is the front of my dress (on a model)

View Quoted Comment That's gorgeous!! You're going to look stunning!
For reference this is what the back of my dress originally looked like. Alterations can do amazing things.

View Quoted Comment Yes, alterations can so amazing things. I am just going to want it hemmed (so I can walk & dance) then the back done.

I do agree that Alterations can do a major thing but it could be that you’re going to look lovely no matter what sometimes we don’t give ourselves enough credit in terms of how we look body wise.

View Quoted Comment I definitely don't because I'm plus size. My consultant today was awesome. She suggested that my dress gets ordered in my current street size because I'm losing weight. By the time I will be able to fit the dress it will be near my wedding date.

View Quoted Comment Yeah I had to get over the body image thing and just go with the dress that fit me best and I could not be happier and I realize that with all of my curves which are totally antithetical to the size fours that run around in my location to me I look absolutely beautiful and no one can tell me anything different. We just don’t give ourselves in a credit.

I plan to do a semi up so so that my hair will cover part of the open back. I don’t know how long your hair is, but that may be an option.

View Quoted Comment It's about to the middle of my back.
