*NOTE: as per bridal bargains... the hardest bm gowns to alter are mori lee, bill levkoff, jessica mcclintock and bari jay due to the lack of seam allowance so make sure if you go with this designer your girls allow enough room for it to be TAKEN IN because if it needs to be let out it could be a problem.

shoes: dyeable shoes online

or have your girls go with a metallic evening strappy sandal that they can use again for other affairs to save them money on the dyeing.
