This video goes into the details of how to dart the bust of a wedding gown, but it also has a bonus section on how to close up a gaping sweetheart neckline for brides who have a concave chest or sunken sternum. This is a common alterations challenge. Ideally, we would lift the lace, do these alterations and then sew the lace back down. I have another video showing all of those steps on a different gown. This bride was tighter budget and didn’t mind neat but visible darts. Don’t judge! It is her dress and her choice, but this alteration is so clear to see and it included altering for a sunken sternum, so I think it makes a great example to learn from.
