2nd Fitting with questions...

Hi girls,

I had my second dress fitting today, and it went fairly well...although I'm never sure, I always have panicked moments of doubt afterwards where I think I should have asked for them to take it in, etc.

So my questions are:

(1) for girls with corset dresses, how do you know when it 'fits'? I feel like she could have pulled it in even more, but the back was almost completely closed - I'm worried I'll lose weight, and it will be too big

(2) are you usually charged extra for extra cups? I told them I wanted a second pair of cups, because the first pair was not enough (sigh), so they upped the price...is this right?

TIA!!!

For question 1, I think it just feels tight enough...I know that doesn't help haha, but when they did mine it felt tight enough. As for cups, yes they cost extra, so an extra pair would make the price go up. HTH at least a little!

It definitely does, thanks!!

haha, yeah, I never know when it's tight enough - even when it feels tight, I always think, I wonder if I could get them to tighten it even more and make me look thinner... I think I would need to actually start cutting off air supply or fracturing ribs before I will admit it can't go any tighter. I should probably just leave it alone, I don't want it too tight!

Thanks again!

For question 1, I'm very used to wearing corsets, so you should feel that it pulls you in. I'd go back for a third fitting and tell them to possibly take the bust in more or the sides. It should feel completely fitted almost as if you're wearing a back brace.

For question 2, I cannot answer since I'm not getting any in my dress. I think each shop is different.
