Help! I have an issue with my dress fitting. What do I do?

Hi there, My wedding dress is a strapless sweetheart neckline design that fits like a glove but I am quite concerned about the gapping at top bust area, especially when I team it up with a strapless push up bra. I am thin on top and god has given me very little in terms of cleavage. I have tried wearing the dress without a bra and the gapping is less as I'm able to tie the corset back tighter. However I look flat with no cleavage. What to do?

Without seeing it on you or how the gown is made it will be hard to give best solution, but most of the time a small dart on each side of the bust would be best solutions in combination with good quality bra cups. If you need any more information, please don't hesitate to contact me on my storefront.

I am a dressmaker which I do alterations on a lot of strapless dresses .The front needs to be taking in .Making the back tighter does not help the gapping at the front .

Without out seeing the actually gown, it can be altered in the front area so that it can stop the gapping. I would suggest taking your gown to a good dressmaker/seamstress. You could also have bra cups placed in your gown to alleviate wearing a strapless bra
