I think if she didn't look so stiff, the boob area might not look so weird. Sewing some cups into the dress might also help. The first dress is lovely but the model just looks uncomfortable in it.

The bust fits her oddly and she looks like she's really got to work to carry that heavy skirt. Perhaps if the model looked like she had eaten in the last month I would not have these feelings... The toga look is horrible but I agree that it could have been done well. I like the little bit of black embroidery that shows up on the ends of the criss-cross.

The classical draping is a good idea that can be easily shaped to the lady and the Greek key trim is deliciously appropriate and super fun. The first one is gorgeous, yes, but I must admit I'm distracted by the odd placement of the boob triangles. Doesn't she know where boobs usually go? And I think I would have picked a model who actually had something to fill them, as well. We teeny-busted gals just don't make the most of those triangles.
