    The top half of the second dress with the capped sleeves is very similar to the top half of the dress you have chosen.

    Would you be able to ask the bridal shop if they can have your dress altered in a similar way?

    Edit: Either way - the dress you have chosen is gorgeous. I wouldn't worry too much about being a bit top heavy. Just invest in some really good strapless underwear.

    I wouldn't risk getting some lace added that wont match either in colour or pattern.

    I'm not keen on the sleeves tbh and as moonpie said, get some good undies. However you have to be comfortable so if you really want straps talk to your dress shop, they should be able to make something for you

    p.s gorgeous dress, i had my eye on this one but sadly lace was not for me!

    Wow i love your dress!! Have you asked the bridal shop if the manufacture can send you say a meter of the lace at an additional cost?? Or if they would make the cap sleeves for you??

    WSS . The dress with the sleeves looks like its from the same lace as the dress.

    Thanks for all the replies ladies. I'll get in contact with the bridal shop and see if I can get some extra lace that matches exactly.

    To be honest, I think I'm just having some dress wobbles. I fell in love with the dress cos it was amazing on and the scalloped neckline is quite high on top of the bust so maybe some super scaffolding underwear might be the answer. The shop had a bolero available for it but I wasn't keen on covering up totally so maybe the straps are a happy medium or maybe when I try it on again in my size with proper undies I might feel differently!

    Either way, I loved Hitched for getting totally unbiased opinions and bringing me down from the height I've got myself into worrying about small things... ?
