Long abandoned in favour of décolleté, the bare back is becoming a must-have. Its success is due to its sobriety, which is appreciated for religious weddings (;
So we thought it would be a good idea to give you a rundown of the alterations that can be made to halter wedding dresses.

Le dos nu doit être ajusté à la cambrure
What you need to know is that, without adjustment, bare backs often yawn. But don't give up on the dress you like - it can always be taken back.
As you'd expect, it needs to be fitted to your arch and waist.
La solution la plus efficace, c'est les pinces
According to our experts, the most effective solution is darts! This allows you to have a made-to-measure dress without destructuring the outfit. You might think that altering the shoulders is a good idea, but it's not always possible. When you see dresses with thin straps, you'll understand why.
Rendez-vous final 15 jours avant le jour J
It's not unusual for our bodies to change between the time we take our measurements and the big day. So it's best to schedule your alterations in advance for a final appointment 15 days before your wedding to ensure that your measurements are perfect!

You've confirmed that bare backs are very popular with us at Balzac's formal dress pop-up and Sézane's as well. Our sewists were on hand to adapt your dresses to your morphology. By the way, we loved the romantic, country look the halter gives you!
Une coque ou un bandeau peuvent être ajoutés par les tillistes pour remplacer le soutien gorge
The difficulty with halter tops is that you can't wear a bra... Our model-making sewists can add a shell or a bandeau in addition to touching up your halter top. There's no reason to hesitate!
L’Anecdote Tilliste

En janvier, on a dû anticiper une retouche de robe pour une femme enceinte qui allait se marier en juillet. Elle allait être enceinte de 7 mois pour le mariage. On a dû reprendre sa robe avec un faux ventre pour faire les mesures de son futur ventre. Comme quoi tout est possible avec la couture !

En bref ...

Malgré la réputation d’être difficile à porter, le dos nu peut aller à tous les types de morphologie.
Et il n’y a pas de mais qui tienne !
Profitons comme il se doit de son élégance et son romantisme ;-)

Cet article a été écrit avec plein de bonnes intentions pour nos clients grâce à notre Tilliste Agnès et notre UX Designer Julie.
