I was waiting in line at a coffee shop this week and
overheard an interesting conversation between 2 young women. I doubt if they
noticed me and even when I moved when they did I was invisible to them. For a
change I was happy to be a tangible ‘fly on the wall’ so I could eavesdrop on their
conversation.
One of the young women was telling her friend what a hard
time she was having finding a wedding dress that would show off her tattoos.
This woman I observed had tats on her hands, arms, legs and chest. Not just a
few but bright brilliant colors of big flowers and geometric patterns all over.
Very popular in wedding dresses is the strapless style. You
can imagine why my curiosity piqued to find out why this style was not going to
work for her. It seems her back tattoos, not visible in the coffee shop, are
the issue. A backless dress with a strapless front is an engineering problem.
How does it stay up and stay up when dancing?
Here you can visualize me shuffling next to them to hear
more about this very unique situation that I am sure plagues many women. How
indeed does a dress showcase as many tattoos as possible?
Would spaghetti straps really ruin the look? Would a fitted
sweetheart front and V-back not be enough exposure?
More details were overheard easily as the milk steaming was
rather loud. This woman is matching her flowers to her tattoos and is waiting
for August to be able to get them in season. This was a new reason to me on
picking wedding colors and date.
Bridesmaids’ dresses was the next subject and I was almost
busted. In fact the bride to be turned around and faced me. I was almost
leaning on her shoulder to overhear and pretended to have shoe problems. It
must have worked because they continued talking and I was once again invisible!
I am truly showing my un-coolness and age. I thought finding
a flattering style, and price the big issues in buying a wedding gown. Guess not.
Has your invisibility been fun to you? Do you know how a
backless, strapless gown could stay up? Have your heard before this tattoo
exhibition problem in a wedding gown?
