My first fitting...

My first fitting...

when should I go? I have had my dress for forever and it is just sitting there. It is a simple dress, so nothing major hopefully will have to be done.

I was waiting to maybe lose a few lbs. but I should probably get on the ball, right?

I just had mine today! The dress fit like a glove...no alterations!

You should ask the salon where you bought it or the seamstress when they think you should go. They would probably have a better idea of how much time it takes and what needs to be done.

you can go whenever you want. if you plan on losing more weight, you may want to wait until a month before to go for your first fitting, otherwise they'll have to keep altering it as you start losing more weight.

I have heard 4 - 8 weeks is a good time

I actually went last night for my first fitting. They are having to hem it and there are a lot of layers. Your dress looks pretty simple. It should be cheap and be finished pretty fast. But I would go get it done anyway just so they dont make you pay rush charges.
They are holding my dress until april! I have an appointment April 18th to try it on again!
It's so far away!

I would probably go soon. At least 8 weeks out... just be sure to have your shoes and undergarments ...

i plan on going in mid-february, but hoping to lose a few lbs first! i think 6-8 wks before should be ok.

I had my first fitting two months before my wedding, which I thought was a little bit too early, but the place insisted!
