Building up Necklines (part 3)

This is one of our lovely gals from prom 2013.  We have built up MANY necklines over the years.  Some of our clients will always be back as we specialize in helping provide the modesty that they require.  

Miss. Mikayla loved the dress, but was not about to head to prom with half of her breasts exposed!  Mom and dad wouldn't have allowed it even if she had wanted to.  At the center bust we were able to release enough of the shirring in the bust to be able to pull it together and close the center neck.  

However the side breasts were left heavily exposed due to the 'scant' cut of the bodice.  On a A or B cup gal this would not be a problem at all.  But when we get into the D's and up it is no longer feasible to expect that most of the prom gowns today will offer modesty.  We were able to take the fabric from the hem to use for the gusset.  So we added a moon shaped gusset at the side breast/under arm area to fill in.  

As you can see from this closer picture the gusset blended in well with the original bodice print.

At the end of the day everyone was very happy!

Building up Necklines (part 2)

Today's blog post will feature a chiffon neckline build up.  The full breasted lady often struggles with keeping things in check.  Over the years we have helped to prevent numerous 'wardrobe malfunctions'.  We believe that on our wedding day is not the day to wear and over revealing dress.  We don't want the only thing that the guests to notice or remember is our breasts.

This is one of the most unforgettable fails I have ever seen in all my 42 years of working with brides!

 This poor gal probably had a nightmare of a time finding a gown that would fit.  Actually it would be an impossibility to find anything off the rack (which clearly is what she did) that would be proportioned properly to her.

Had she been our bride I would have created the perfect build up to embrace those breasts and yet keep the  original overall look true to conception.

This is one of our brides whose gown was custom made.  The original pictures she brought us had a very open neckline.  When we had our first fitting we asked about her comfort level when Grandma and Grandpa would be in the room.  She thought she would be fine and that the gown was not too revealing.  However!  Grandma came to share our joy on her 'final' fitting and she realized I was right:  She would be more comfortable with more coverage.  

So rather than picking up her gown we were allowed to spend a little more quality time with it and when our bride returned this was the result.  

Whew!  Yes, it does feel more 'bride like' to reveal less on our wedding day.

Revealing too much is a problem often faced by fuller breasted ladies. 

 It's a problem we frequently overcome!
