MAJOR VENDOR COMPLAINT ***Update posted on thread***

Original post by jtlax79

Hi, I don't post often on the boards but I felt obligated to do so. After reading raving reviews of a store beginning with an L in Baldwin, my bridesmaids ordered their dresses.

Last night was the first fitting and my MOH goes into the fitting room and can't zip the dress around the bust, there is a 3 in gap in the back. The 2nd BM goes in and has a 2.5 inch gap and the 3rd (who happens to be a model) zips her dress but can't breathe. The dresses were puckering b/c they were so tight and looked awful.

The seamstresses remeasure them and all of their measurements are wrong on their receipts. They tell them that they all must have gained inches in their bust. My BMs are all thin, all 3 dresses were size 6. Meanwhile, they are whispering that they can't really fix the dresses and would have to piece the backs of the dresses together to close the gap. The store blamed the girls for 'gaining inches.' You have got to be kidding me, all 3 of the BMs are only A or B cups and they gained inches around their ribcage?!?! Instead of saying maybe the manufacturer cut the dress wrong, or sent the wrong size, or doing anything to help they immediately accused the girls of gaining weight and said there was nothing they can do about it.

So we walked out of the store, and the BMs have no dresses for my Sept wedding.

That's terrible!!! I'm so sorry that you and your BMs had to go through that.

I am so sorry to hear that! I would have been going crazy on the L store (which I do not know which store it is).

So glad to hear your mom was able to work something out with the manufacturer. I hope it works out!

Sorry to hear things didn't go well!

More power to your mom that's awesome!

If worse comes to worse Ive heard of people going to Estelle's dressy dresses in Farmingdale to buy last minute dresses

I hope everything works out
