Junior bridesmaid dress

Junior bridesmaid dress

My bridesmaid dress does not come in junior (or kids) sizing. According to a size chart I found online for this dress they say that a 0 is

Bust: 32
Waist: 24
Hips: 34.

I asked the mother of my jr.bridemaid to measure her and this is what she measured:

Bust: 29
Waist: 26
Hips: 28

Do you guys think it could work? Or, do you think it would be too much to be altered (wouldn't even be worth it)?

hmmm...that seems like a pretty big difference on the hips. Maybe it won't be too bad though since the skirt isn't fitted. Can you ask a seamstress if the alterations would work?

Yes, her mother is going to ask a friend of hers that is a seamstress. But, I'm impatient and was hoping the liweddings girls would have an immediate answer for me!

Yeah...I dont know. The hips might be a problem. I've heard that they can only take a dress in 3 sizes before it starts to alter the look of the dreess. Not sure if this is true or not.

I think they should be able to alter it to her...I've seen seamstresses do some crazy s**t to dresses!!

But I guess it would helpful to ask someone who is a professional!
