MY dress doesn't fit!

ok, so i finally mustered up the courage to go in today and try on my dress. It is GORGEOUS! but-
IT DOESN't FIT!!!!!

It's unreal b/c I have the biggest behind and huge thighs and I have extra space there! arghhh!!!

My bust is so small and come to find out that's teh part that doesn't fit. :(

So now I am dieting even harder but I don't think I can lose weight from my back or bust in order for it to close.

oh well...........

Re: MY dress doesn't fit!

aww don't worry about it, when I first got my dress it didn't fit either... I think it scared me enough that a week later I lost enough weight to fit into it!

Dont be discouraged. You have some time to diet and fit in that bad boy.

Don't worry it will all work out worst comes to worst can they let it out at all?

Re: MY dress doesn't fit!

aww, that's not cool at all. what did the dress store say? what can they do?

Re: MY dress doesn't fit!

aww, maybe it could be let out a little so you don't have to go crazy with dieting? You still have plenty of time to get it altered. good luck!

Re: MY dress doesn't fit!

the place said they can let it out. i find it very strange that it is cut in such a strange way. if anything it should be way too small in the hip and thigh area but instead it's too big.

i'm not going to stress it b/c i have been losing and i think its just the cut more than me.

Re: MY dress doesn't fit!

thats strange b/c its doubtful you gained boobage..lol

its like the last place girls gain, unfortunately

this is why i am dreading trying mine on

try pilates, it will tone and flatten your muscles and not bulk them up.

how far off was it? They can probably do some sort of alterations.

it may be just the gown-- i would just go along with your diet-- and try it on again in a couple weeks before doing alterations--

Re: MY dress doesn't fit!

So sorry to hear that it doesn't fit I think between you dieting and them working on the fitting it will be just fine. Don't panic

Re: MY dress doesn't fit!

Do not feel bad,, my dress was too small on the boobs because I GOT BIG ONES.. AND THE BRIDAL STORE ORDERED A BIGGER SIZE INDICATED THAT IT SHOULD BE HERE IN TIME,,I AM CROSSING MY FINGERSS,,IT IS MAKING ME NERVOUS TO KNOW TIME IS NEAR,, THIS WAS LIKE TWO WEEKS AGO.

Re: MY dress doesn't fit!

My dress was ordered a whole size too small and they just took it out, they took it out a full 2 inches. The bust was HUUUUUGE on my dress, I bought thick cups and wore a bra.
Dont stress, i did and it worked out in the end

Re: MY dress doesn't fit!

honestly, you will be so busy that you will forget to eat! I lost 15 pounds the 2 weeks before my wedding from running around & just being busy & stressing out.

Re: MY dress doesn't fit!

Try the lemon aide diet it is what I use to lose weight quickly.

Or you still have a bit of time try no carbs or cut out sugar drinks and soda water water only.

Also try getting the belly band from target and walmart to help shrink your back and belly through water weight reduction.

Im sure you will do fine and fit perfectly
Good luck

Seriously.. I was eating taco bell twice a week leading up to the wedding I was so stressed and my dress was falling off of me!!

Re: MY dress doesn't fit!

You will lose it..trust me..the stress before the wedding will make you drop. i wasnt trying to drop anymore weight after the final fitting and I did; my dress FELL DOWN during my reception while I was dancing..NO BRA mind you

The best part..I was dancing with our family friends; one is a priest, one is a doc. Needless to say the joke was on me.

You will fit into it and look GORGEOUS! Iff this was your final fit and they didn't do it right, i would march myself back there and ask them to fix it. Just drink lots of water and stay away from salty foods.

Re: MY dress doesn't fit!

Dont worry you have time to make it fit. At the worse just start looking for a corset type of bra to help you minimize the bust. Is there anyway that you can order a bigger size?
