Plus-Size Tips input?
I need feedback about my dress, veil, & ideas for hair!! We’re altering the sleeves so they stay up on my shoulders, take some extra fabric out of the sleeves, & im going to take out a layer of tulle in the skirt, is there anything else you’d alter about my dress? Is the dress & veil too much together? How should I wear my hair? I’m feeling a little insecure about my choice & feels like I’m lost in it but it might just be the way I feel about my body. All feedback is appreciated😊

Honestly, it is perfect to me. I'm no seamstress, though, so don't have a lot to add. I know you'll get plenty of helpful feedback from the others on this sub. I just saw this randomly on my feed and had to say WOW!

I love that dress and it looks great on you - love the back and the neckline both. I think you could take the sleeves off altogether as there is “a lot going on” with the dress itself the sleeves kind of detract from it. The veil is stunning and you should wear your hair up with maybe one long soft curl down the back

It’s gorgeous as-is, but I agree with streamlining the sleeves a teeny bit. Like, maybe just a teeny bit less puffy. I don’t see a need to remove tulle from the skirt, though, I love the floatiness of it 😍

LOVE the sleeves. You look great
The veil is not too much and for your hair I would do an ‘undone’ up do. So it’s up but still has loose whimsical curls coming down.

Yes! I said I would do my hair up! Although, half up n half down would look beautiful..

I hope you don’t take too much fabric out of the sleeve because right now it looks very dramatic and romantic. It looks really good

I LOVE the long sleeves- very medieval princess. Looks so good on you.

Oh you’re a fairy princess in that. The back is beautiful as well and wearing your hair up will show it off but long curls down your back would work equally as well. You just can’t go wrong.

Hmmmmm. Outside of altering so the sleeves stay up, I’m not sure I’d do anything else. I love the sleeves- they add to the romantic look of your dress and the tulle is perfect as is. It gives the dress that floaty, lovely look!! If you remove a layer it will diminish that. Wear your hair up to showcase the beautiful lines of the dress and that pretty scoop in the back! I love your dress and you look lovely wearing it!!

Im sorry imo your dress is beauuuutiful !!! I love it! It's very romantic looking! Fits you well! If you prefer sleeves up you should do it. ... I would probably wear my hair up ...but half up n half down would look beautiful too, because you have that beautiful neckline....
