Dress straps

Sydmxo11, on July 2, 2024 at 6:27 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 2
Hello again ! ☺️ what are some recommendations on putting cushions on the straps? My dress that I could not say no to as I fell in love immediately, the straps somewhat dig into my skin as it’s a heavy dress. Do you guys have any recommendations to add something to the straps to make the fabric not dig into the skin ?

    If the straps are digging in, the bodice is probably not fitted properly. Have you gotten it altered yet? The seamstress should be able to tighten the fit of the bodice so that more of the supposed comes from that and reduces tension on the straps.

    Hi there, I feel like I’d have to see a picture of the dress to properly advise but you’d either need to go strapless or add thicker straps. Either way unfortunately if it’s a heavy dress you’re going to feel it in the straps on some level. Don’t let anyone tell you to alter it into a halter dress, that will hurt your neck all night, imagine that weight on your neck
