Re: My Dress!!!
OMG The dress was amazing!!!!! I didn't wanna take it off!!!!One small problem....the back did not close all the way
I knew I should have ordered in a bigger size! I have a small bust so they explained that a smaller size would be ok - but turns out it was still a bit loose in the bust but too tight around my upper waist!Ugh I wasn't to thrilled but they assured me that seamstress can take it out on both sides a bit and if anything, the back can be made into a corsett (for $100 extra). I like corsett back but dont really wanna spent the extra cash....sooo hopefully they can take it out and it will fit - I am going on a diet!!! lol
They told me to call the seamstress a month to a month and a half before wedding but I feel like that's not enough time so I'm scheduling 2 months before!

They should put a corset for free since it was their suggestion to order a smaller size!! Lol Glad it all went well though!

Is your back a zipper? I LOVE The back of my dress because it has gorgeous crystals and beading down the sides of the zipper but i have been secretly bummed that it wasn't a corset back. That's so exciting to hear it's possible to make it into a corset back! Where did you buy the dress from?

My dress was also too small but it was due to a medical condition and I was all worried but they are just going to make mine into a corset back without a problem. Dont panic lol

Haha I wish! Ugh I should have known better! I dont know what I was thinking but hopefully when they take out the extra material, it will fit.

The back is buttons (inside hooks and then buttons on outside. (pics in album 'My Dress' - last 3).
Yeah I love corsett back too but I kind of like it the way it is becuase it's a V shape and different. Not sure how it will look with corsett but I do like the way it looks on video when MOH is tying the corsett
