Bridesmaid dress doesn't fit! (Warning... Long!)

Original post by Luvbsb4eva

I went to Pittsburgh this weekend for my second bridal shower... I'll post pics of that soon, and brought my girls their dresses. I get a call about 30 minutes after the shower from my one BM telling me her dress doesn't fit. She can't even zip it past her waist. I freaked and didn't know what I was going to do... but first made sure I called everyone and that they all tried on their dresses, luckily she was the only one.

When I compared her measurements to Raylia's size chart, she definately should have been ordered the next size... I definately felt better knowing that the bridal shop screwed up and not that my BM gained a ton of weight (which she didn't anyways...)

So I went to my bridal shop yesterday afternoon for my second fitting and brought the BM dress with me. I explained the situation, showed them the measurements that they had on file and that she should've had the next size. They said they would figure out what happened and to go for my fitting... my fitting went well by the way, but it needs to be taken in more! I think I lost a couple of more pounds! I'll post pics...

So then after the fitting they had my sis try on the other BM dress that didn't fit, and it fits her everywhere except around her bust... and she can't even zip it there! They brought out the seamstress and she said that she can take it out enough to make my sister fit into this dress, and then have her switch dresses with the other BM so then she will have the correct size. I really hope they can make it work!!

dont worry it will work out, you have enough time for them to fix it. There was an incident at the place they made my bm dresses and all their dresses were delayed, rk bridal was going crazy bc anybody who ordered that designer was late. My girls didnt get dresses until 2 weeks before the wedding and some had alot of alterations to do but it was all done on time. They will just order extra fabric probably and this definitely all can be done before your wedding



OMG I think i'd go crazy if that happened! I think FMIL will have this problem, but it's her own fault... she waited until last week to order her dress... and it won't be in now until 2 weeks before the wedding. And she wants to have a halter strap added. Right...



yeah there was a fire or some accident at the factory. I was fine until after we got back from vegas and they still werent here but we got it soon after. But like i said, it works out and they get it done
