I am big busted and I would like to know what would be the most flattering neckline for me to wear on my wedding dress?
Thank you,
Tiffany Burton

Re: [1Tiffany] best neckline for big busted

Tiffany -
To minimize you large bust select a dress with an open neckline as it gives the illusion of a smaller bust:
Square: cut straight across, angled corners where straps or sleeves meet.
Scoop: low, wide, round cut neckline stretching softly to the shoulders.
Off the Shoulder: small sleeves or straps sit just below the shoulder on the upper arm. Not recommended if you have broad shoulders.
Portrait - My pick for big busted figures. Similar to off-the-shoulder but made with more fabric, a wide, soft scoop from one shoulder to the other.
Sweetheart - Low neckline resembles the top half of a heart and incorporates a high back.
Go for more detail on the hemline and less on the bodice to draw attention downward. Opt for a fitted skirt since a full skirt will make you look bigger on the bottom. Top Wedding Questions Forum Moderator - "Write your sorrows in the sand, your blessings in stone".
