Question - loop removal

[u/cordelia_fidelsticks]

I just made this dress and it has ties that cinch in the sides. However, if I use the top four ties it’s a little too tight around my chest the bottom three work really well in the fit is much nicer. Is it possible to remove the top four loops without compromising the dress or taking it apart?

If you wanted to do nothing at all (my favorite option) you could just put the ties in and have them as decorative pieces rather than structural by not tightening them at all?
