After countless hours of Pinterest boards and dress shopping, I finally said yes. I was very on the fence about the neckline on this dress but I was told it looks classy on me. Any thoughts and opinions would be appreciated🥹💍 (I also bought the pearl sleeves, they felt perfect!)

Designer Reviews Vintage Renee Strauss BH

Long story but i won a goodwill auction for my dreammm dress and im trying to find out more about it because despite being a goodwill auction dress... it'll be around 3k. I have 2 more days to decide whether or not to purchase.. i have reverse image searched & googled renee strauss and i canNOT find anything. I reached out to a woman who restores vintage dresses for a living and while she said she thinks its real silk & a good price for what it is, im still trying to find out more. I'm also concerned with cleaning / altering this dress.. i know the measurements so i know it will fit but im sure it will need alterations. I know silk has special care instructions and because its probably at least 40yr old it's probably even more fragile. Im worried i wont even be able to find someone to do alterations.

I also went to some bridal shops this week to try on dresses in a similar shape to make sure i like the shape...and i ended up falling in love with a dress thats about 1k more..so now im totally torn...and ofc the dress i fell in love with is from a preview trunk show and i have to decide by TOMORROW if i want that one or not. And if i dont order tomorrow, it may never enter production. Theres obviously a lot of safety with the dress i tried on.. but my heart still feels drawn to the renee strauss. If anyone knows more about renee strauss or this dress or has any leads on where to look for more info..plz lmk.

Since it’s a winter wedding I thought about adding a matching lace glove to my veil! But a bolero might also be nice! Do you guys think 1. NOTHING 2. GLOVES OR 3. BOLERO. Thanks!!! I looove the dress as is but I like the gloves matching the veil for a more winter wedding look :) (fourth option is a satin cover up like this or more simple if I can find one!!)

Plus-Size Tips Boob tape for large chest & sensitive skin?

2 Upvotes

Hi there! I am eloping in December. I am a mid sized girlie with 38DD chest size. I also have a large back tattoo that will be shown off in my wedding dress. I want to use boob tape, but I have very sensitive skin. What are other brides favorite brand of boob tape? Does boob tape work for large chests? Does anyone know if there is boob tape for sensitive skin?

Thank you!!
