They did a hem to hollow measurement so I don't have to alter it except for stays on the bodice and the bustle. I was a bit upset when they said that it fit so well that I can't lose anymore weight or else the corset back will be overlapping. But here are pics.

You look beautiful. Why can't you lose more weight? Can't they take it in a little if need be so the corset doesn't overlap? You still have a few months before your wedding.

BTW, congrats on the weight loss.

The bodice has beadwork all over, so to do any alterations would mean mucho $$$$$ and the chance that it wouldn't look right. I'm not so much worried about the money, but the aesthetics of the beadwork after a seamstress is done touching it.
