So this cake is Supposed to be a wedding dress with a red ribbon down one side. First of all I don't find it even looks like a wedding dress 
and I'm having a hard time with the fondant ribbon. I just wanted something really simple but I'm not liking the look of it. What should I add to the ribbon to make it look complete. I tried doing a little bow and it didn't work 
Any suggestions or tips?? If a bow is the only way, what is the best way to make one?? I'm stumped. And do you think I should add a top border? Or would that be overkill..
I think it looks like a dress. You could try a small flower instead of a bow, but that's about my only suggestion....Good luck with it.
How about adding some white cornilli lace in a small pattern to the dress, or some little flowers or scrolls around the bottom of the dress?
Maybe add a necklace of some sort.

How about cornelli on the top part of the dress and/or some pearls around the neckline.
Right now your ribbon is looking a little plain and flat as is, A small bow is not gonna work with the size/length/ ribbon you have on the dress now. Try to increase the size of your bow so it's in proportion to the dress. Do a search on making bows out of fondant. If you go to the homepage of CC their might be instructions for making bows.
Also:
Try adding some corneli lace (in white) to the bodice.
How about carving the top of the bodice so that it dips down a little and then add cornelli lace. I think it looks fine....I agree that you could add a small flower on the sash, or maybe a bow.
I like the idea of the cornelli lace on top. If you keep the ribbons, try notching the bottom or cutting them on a diagonal so they look like the ends of ribbons. I also like the idea of a ribbon rose at the waist where the ribbons intersect.
Looks like a dress to me!

Thank you so much for ALL of your suggestions! I was thinking of doing cornelli lace but the bride's dress is very simple and elegant and I was trying to make it somewhat the same. I did end up doing a drop flower where the ribbons meet, and cut the bottoms of the ribbon at a diagonal. I unfortunately was in a huge rush and forgot to bring the camera. And on the very HOT car ride out, the icing started to melt a little. But the bride loved it! Thanks again everyone!
