    I wouldn't have noticed if you didn't point it out, but perhaps the dress is just a size too small? It is a great fit on the front though, has it already been altered? If not, I would order just one size bigger and then take it in.

    The only way to smooth that out is to make the dress not fit as tight (let it out) but from that pic, you don't look bad! I think you're just being your own worst critic Smiley smile

    MM- I always am... maybe push ups would tone my back up a bit...?

    I love it otherwise!

    Also, that is the biggest size they carry that dress in.

    Or just do your hair down and not a soul would notice

    I think that's why I didn't notice in the first fitting pix. My hair was down...

    I would second the wearing your hair down, or your veil will cover it as well.

    The only way to lose it is to lose weight- and you certainly don't look like you are in need of losing weight.

    But I do have to ask- your wedding isn't for 5 more months- you're already having your fittings, much less a final fitting? That shouldn't be until less than 2 month before the wedding- and that's pushing it!

    I'm confused...if your wedding isn't until July why is this your final fitting? You have plenty of time to drop a few pounds to get rid of that. You should join us on Loseit.com, its' free and a lot of us are on thereSmiley smile

    You can do some strategic smoothing too... but then you might end up with a bigger pucker under your armpits.... lesser of two evils? I don't go to the gym very often, so my terms are off, but you can do some pull downs, or that one where you sit in the chair, put your arms up at a 90 degree at the elbow and squeeze the arm pad together. Just find machines that tone your back. But your hair and - or - the veil will cover it.

    What you need to do are reverse fly and (I'm sorry) push ups, maybe a few planks thrown in for good measure. They'll do the trick!

    SO, I suppose "Final fitting" was a bad choice of words... I fit in it prefectly so I didn't see a need for altering it. UNTIL I say the back issue. So I'm thinking about just trying to tone it up, just wasn't sure on how to do that. I really like how I look in it, so I didn't feel like losing any weight and starving myself till the wedding. I mean, he loves me the way I am right?

    But thanks girls! I appreciate al the compliments and stuff! =)

    Also, thanks for the advice of exercises, I would g to a gym but I don't have one within 45 mins of my house. But things to do at home are the best for me.

    I actually had this very exact problem at my fitting and it made me want to cry so bad! They took in the dress at the top when they werent supposed to, so once they let it out the back cleavage all went away (no dieting required!)

    What a beautiful dress and you look amazing! We are all our own worst critics; I wouldn't have noticed except you pointed it out. The dress fits you very well except that one spot; I vote for letting it out a little in the back. Good luck!

    I think alot of women have that same issue. Wear your hair down and the viel will cover the rest after an hour or two in the dress it will stretch out and it wont look so tight in the back.
