    Hi girls,
    I'd like to know your opinion about my wedd dress. I bought it last year, really love it, that's the one I was dreaming about. But I've got an issue with bolero, which I've got as a part of that dress, the lace on bolero and dress match together. When I've seen it on a pic with model it looked gorgeous, but I don't really think it suits my body shape. I just feel too wide and fat in it. So I'm thinking to go for alternation, maybe to change the line into sweetheart neckline and add an extra straps on, to make me feel taller. I'm only 5 feet tall and wish to look elegant on my day. The dress on the pic is 3 sizes bigger, go for the fitting next Friday. Anyone's got any suggestions? Are any short brides here too, if yes what kind of "top of your dress" did you have? Many thanks xx

    Hi verity lush dress and the bolero is stunning! But I know what you mean about the neckline. A sweetheart might be nice. Either way it's really lovely xx

    I'm short too, but I think that the bolero will work because its mainly see-through.

    But with all of these types of things, it depends on if you feel comfortable with it. If you'd prefer it removed, then go for it :-)

    Ps. Your dress is beautiful x

    I love your dress! I think the bolero will look lovely, I wouldn't get your alterations done yet though, I've seen your countdown and you've got 13 months... Anything can happen in three! Really wouldn't do that yet Hun x
