I love my dress! The only thing I wish to do is to modify it to an off the shoulder since I have very narrow shoulders and wider hips. How would you modify this dress? Any suggestions? Pics? Is it possible to mix a softer or tulle fabric with my dress style? I have some Alencon lace left but no more fabric. Here is my dress and some photos of possible necklines. Please note that although some of the neckline photos are V-neck, I am just using them as inspirations but still wanting to do off the shoulders.
The key is to keep this dress elegant, tasteful, and not overly sexy. Think Grace Kelly.
Bridal shops and bridal seamstresses have pre-made shoulder straps/sleeves that you can easily add onto your dress (and they can do it for you if you cant sew). They are very affordable, and they have different designs. Put your dress on, and 'tuck them in' to get a visual, and pick the one you think looks best. Good luck!
