Had my first fitting today and bawled my eyes out when I got home.......

Original post by billandme

I HATE my dress.......It doesn't suit my body type AT ALL......... It looks HORRIBLE on me and makes my short torso even shorter........this is the first time that I saw my dress on in a full length mirror in my size.........

My seamstress told me that this style isn't good for my body type.(short torso).........

My MOH and I are going out tonight to find another dress for me.........I can't believe this

are you sure that it's not just sitting wierd on you, and alterations would correct it?

It's such a gorgeous gown, and you're not heavy-set at all, so it should look great.... so sorry it didn't look like you thought it would!!!

I am so sorry to hear this! Can the seamstress make some alterations that would make the dress more flattering? I know they can do some amazing things.

I am so sorry..You have a great figure! It's hard to imagine that this dress wouldn't look stunning on you. Was anyone with you when you tried it on? What did they think? Maybe the seamstress can do soemthing to make it a bit more flattering?

After all you went through trying to decide whether or not to spend the money! I'm so sorry! Are you sure it can't be altered to suit your body?

Good luck! And I agree you would be a perfect candidate for the What not to wear show!
