DBT got me thinking a good question?????

How much can you take in a dress??? I have a MIA BM...whos dress i bought and am holding at home....size 14.
my sisters two best friends offered to fill in.....they are a size 4!!!!

ALL my other girls are a 6...so its not like i can alter the 14 a little for a size 10 and give the 10 to the 6 and so forth

THEY'RE ALL SO SKINNY!!!

I say pick on girl and feed her lots and lots of cake and chocolate. I understood that you could only take a dress in 2 sizes...but it would help to have them try it on...you know how crazy these BM dresses are with the sizing...it might work out where it can be taken in...who ever fits gets the job.

I would see if you can exchange it. Its worth a shot or you could say I orderd a 4 not a 14!!! It might work.. Good Luck!

I don't think it is possible to take in a dress that much.
Are you having a flower girl?
If they have enough fabric you can have it cut apart and made into a dress for the FG. I'm sure you can find someone to do it.
I know a few people who had their wedding dresses chopped apart and made into christening dresses for their children.

Maybe the dress runs small? Maybe it's really like a size...10 so ...eh it would still have to be taken in a lot...hmmmm....

ohhh welllll

i was thinking of that for the flower girl, because our JMBs have a mini version of the dress...so maybe i could make something similar for the FG

I just dont think they can do it. Im not sure though. Call the seamstress and see what she says.

It depends on the dress, if it has no bustles, then they could probably do it. but you will need a really good seamstress
