Fitting Question

I'm hoping someone can give me insight into my first fitting. (it wasnt what I imagined it to be).

* The dress was not steamed, it was WRINKLED. Is this the norm?
* The seamstress made the bussle with three buttons to show the detail, I think it makes me 'poofy' but she said there is no other way to do it....ANY recommendations would be helpful!!
**Add to that they 'forgot' my headpeice in storage and it was a FUN experience.

THANK YOU for your insight!!!

Yes, the dress will be wrinkled. It won't be steamed until before you pick it up.
doesn't make sense to do it beforehand because it hill be handled a lot during the alterations.

Let your seamstress know you want a less poofier bustle. If you don't say anything, she won't know. Maybe it can be done a different way, maybe not.

Why didn't they get the headpiece out of storage while you were there ?
Make sure they have it for your second fitting.
