What's your shoulder style? Sleeves, straps, or strapless?

Lynnie, on March 19, 2019 at 13:05 Posted in Wedding fashion 0 27

What dress style did you pick for your wedding day? Did you opt for a strapless sweetheart neckline? Or buy a dress with straps or sleeves? What's your shoulder status?

    This girl wants sleeves! Unfortunately, not a lot of places in my neck of the woods carry samples with sleeves.

    I absolutely love the lace! I’m so sorry your mom doesn’t like it but what matters is you love it and feel great in it!

    The dress I want is no longer available at David's bridal. It has one shoulder so I get to try and have a dress made. It is a dress I had bought years ago ugh

    I've always wanted a cinderella-off shoulder type look for my wedding dress. But my wedding dress is like a "tank-style"... I got caught up in the moment literally tears, when I tried it on. I wasn't planning on buying a wedding dress on that day but yea...

    Also, I showed my mom pictures of my dress after I bought it.. and she hates the dress.

    I surprised everyone and got a dress with straps, and I love them! They really complete the look of the dress and I feel much more confident that my dress will stay up

    I did a lace strap!
    As much my bust is fine being in a strapless dress, I can't stand seeing girls in beautiful dresses and constantly pulling it up - I didn't want to be like that!

    I have sleeves and a high neckline currently but will be altering it to straps for comfort. I love the sleeves and neckline on my dress but I have larger shoulders so it's just not ideal!

    I knew only a strapped style would work for me since strapless doesn't bode well for my boobs and sleeves restrict my biceps lol

    My straps are spaghetti straps that are beaded.

    I didn't set out looking for strapless, but it turned out the dress that worked best for me was strapless. I wore an organza wrap with it to hide my upper arms .

    I didn't want a strapless dress, but I fell in love with a strapless sweetheart neckline. I am getting thick lace straps that match the bodice, and I am going to have them detachable.

    I really wanted sleeves, but we're getting married at the end of June and I was told it would be too hot, so I have very thin straps - they were originally embellished with rhinestones but I'm getting them altered to have the same flowers from the bodice all the way up.

    Mine has straps which was a requirement for me because I really don’t want to have to deal with pulling my dress up all night.

    Straps, sorta!
    my dress has a high neck halter-type top, with an lacey-illusion back. So the front and back are linked by two small straps lol
    of all the dresses I tried on, it’s the only one that showed off my shoulders right + didn’t make me look short and stumpy.

    Mine has straps- I like the look of strapless, but strapless dresses don't seem to fit me properly

    Straps! My wedding dress is a V-neck with a detail see-through mesh back so it needed straps, but of course with my size of bust I am more than happy to have straps!
