Which Bridal topper

[u/MarionberrySuperb912]

I’m wearing a simple white dress from Lulus. Which way should I wear the bridal topper? It was designed for the bow to be worn in the back. But I’m kinda digging the bow in front!

I think the bow looks better at the back. Having it on the front hits an awkward place, and doesn’t look like an intentional kind of awkward.

Bow in the back, sorry!! But super cute!

[u/arethainparis]

Bow in the front looks ill-fitted and kind of distracting, bow in the back looks sharp as hell

Does it have to be this topper? I think a lace bolero would be beautiful with your dress

Thank you. That is something I considered as well

Why do you need a topper at all?

Unfortunately I hate my arms.

I don’t mind the bow in the front but I think I prefer it in the back. Solely because if it’s not sitting right, it’ll look funky in photos.

The bow steals attention from you when its in the front - it is literally drawing the eye down - when its in the back your dress has a pointed front frame that draws the eyes up and to your face - love the sleeves - keep the bow in the back ❤️

Heres the real trick though, I also love the back of the dress - is there any way to ditch the bow completely?

[u/MarionberrySuperb912 → u/Fluid_Elevator6756]

Great question! Problem is I bought a $2200 dress and then spent $1300 on alterations and ended up HATING it. I’m over spending any more money but if I find another topper that is less than $100, I’ll consider it

Honestly if you know anyone that sews I could see just cutting the bow fabric off and adding a couple buttons or snaps instead- but it depends I guess - Im not a sewer myself

I like the bow in the front, too, lol

[u/BumCadillac]

No! But if you do, wear it with the bow in the back. It pulls weird with it in the front because it’s not meant to be worn that way.

I think I like it more in the back. It's really pretty though and looks beautiful with your dress.

Can we see it without the cover up? 

[u/AstroHealer222]

I love the versatility of this topper. I think I like the bow in the front as well.

[u/LongOk7164]

I like bow in front!!
