Bridesmaid dress with chest defornity?

I have pectus excavatum severely bad. I hide it very well, most people don't know I have it. I've told most of my friends about it, but they still don't understand how badly it effects what I wear ect. My friend recently asked me to be in her wedding. I am so excited and I feel priveledged, but the dress is a strapless tube style dress. Anyone w. pectus knows this isn't going to stay up, and you'll be able to see straight down it. I know a few tricks I'm gonna try to make it work. Anyone else have this dissorder and can make a dress like this work? What do you suggest. I'm assuming I wont get too many answers for this one, but I thought I'd try.Bridesmaid dress with chest defornity?
Actresses use double sided sticky tape to hold their revealing garments in place, keeping them from being too revealing. I don't know how heavy the dress is, maybe the bride can make an exception and allow you to wear a similar dress with straps.



Also, ask in the Beauty and Style section. They may have ideas and know where to get what you need, like the sticky tape.Bridesmaid dress with chest defornity?

You can get the sticky tape at fabric stores.

Hay, I have a double mastectomy. Can you afford to buy a mastectomy bra? Mastectomy bras have pockets that you can insert gel like breast things in them.

Or is that what pectus excavatum is like?

Good luck.
How about the clear plastic bra straps.(JC Penneys)Maybe they can be sewn in to hold the dress up? Sorry.
Have you talked to the bride yet? Maybe you can add thin straps(I've seen clear ones on bras that would be less noticeable) and a wrap to go around your shoulders and gather in the front
