First Fitting Questions

I have my first fitting this weekend! What should I expect?
I know to bring my shoes/undergarments.... what else? When do I pay my alteration fees--at the first fitting?

Also... which one looks better?? The back of my dress originally looked like this with 4 buttons (as when I ordered it during the trunk show)
but now as the dress went into production, the designer changed it to 6 buttons (as seen below). I cant decide which design I like more. Please help! TIA!

I like the six buttons. Who's the designer? That's an amazing dress! (Although, wow, that model needs a sandwich. Or ten.)

I haven't gone for my first fitting so I don't know what to tell you!

Thanks! The dress and shoes are both white. There's silver flowers on the neckline, so I thought a little silver in the shoes might go well. I got the shoes at DSW! :)

Yes, I think they will be perfect with the dress.

I also like the 6 buttons.

As for what to expect w/ your first fitting. Def. bring undergarments and shoes. I was upset at my first fitting b/c it was so big on me. The 2nd one was much better. Essentially, the seamstress will pin and clip. Then you'll take it off.

I can suggest, for the 2nd fitting, when it will look/fit more like it should take jewelry and headpiece then. You'll get a better idea of the final picture.
