Now this sort of structural issue doesn't just go away. The wide back thwarted me again three years later when Whitney and I decided to sneak in to the nearby high school's prom. Trust me, it wasn't easy to find a dress this hideous that could zip up my back while still fitting.
Years have passed, but my rib cage remains. In fact, I'm pretty sure that rib cage is the reason this dress has gone unworn for longer than I'd like to admit.
WBK view:
See, those structured shoulders? You know, the kind reminiscent of shoulder pads?
Must you have a supremely narrow frame to successfully wear such a thing?
Can it be worn in real life or is it better left for the next time I attend a costume party as 1984s Superbowl quarterback dressed in drag?
PS- if you think this dress is too 80's housewife you can say so too.

Oh, I love this dress! Structured shoulders don't automatically mean linebacker shoulders. Besides, the shape of the dress makes your waist look tiny!
That is an awesome dress! I would wear it every day! haha You don't look like you have big shoulders or wide back at all! Looks completely normal!
I adore that dress. The color is just fantastic on you.
I have 'football shoulders' and a wide rib cage. My three sisters all deal with the same problem. We've learned to embrace it, though. Older women tell us all the time that we'll be thankful when we start to 'lose some of our posture' because all of our friends will resort to shoulder pads and we won't have to!
Embrace your beautiful shoulders, WBK!
This dress is gorg-town USA!! I can't tell that you have wide shoulders from any of these pics, I think you look fantastic.
I love it. I don't see any issues with the shoulders whatsoever. Maybe add a skinny belt?
I love this dress on you! You have a great figure and I agree with Monica, adding a skinny belt (maybe a neon one) would look great!
As a fellow wide-backed gal, I feel ya. I have a hard time with this issue too.
i wish i were kat fiet.
I think it is so cute!
You look great in it!
I think this is a PERFECT dress. <3
