I had my first fitting today with Josephine!! Love her!! She's such a sweetheart!! I bought it in January of 2006 -- so I was a little ahead of the game and at one point I was really second guessing my decision from looking at other brides dresses. But I fell in all over again!!
It was absolutely perfect!! Just a little snug on top -- since I had unfortunately gained a little weight after coming off a long-term migraine medication when I had hopes to lose like 20 pounds and it never happened. But she's not going to touch the top till my next fitting on September 4th. I need to live on the treadmill and eat only salads It'll be worth it!!
For the bustle she did a french bustle kinda and made it look like it had pick-ups in the back with the sashes then bustled over the train.
Thanks ladies!! I fell in love with my dress all over again -- at one point I really second guessed my choice , but I guess it happens when you buy your dress really early and look at all the other beuatiful dresses LIW brides have It was great to see it on in my size. You know how samples are Josephine was great!! Kleinfeld girls should really request her for their fittings. She was so sweet and was great at showing me different looks for my bustle as it was more detailed with the sashes. Thanks for the recommendations to use her.
