question about dress size

Since I ordered my dress I have lost 50 pounds. I was wondering if anyone else did this and was it a problem having the dress altered? My dress isn't in yet and I'm less than 2 month from my wedding. Should I call the shop and check with them? I got my dress a Fantasia Bridal. I'm worried that they wont be able to take it in that much and I will be left with out a dress.

Congratulations on your weight loss ! That's a great accomplishment.
Call the bridal shop about your dress. It really should be in. Your weight loss is about 2 and ahalf dress sizes, so they are going to have a lot of work to do.

i would start calling the shop about the dress to see when it will be in, and explaining that you want to know cause you have lost a lot of weight.

they can do miracles with dresses these days-so before you start getting too worried i would just wait to see how it will be when you put it on

They arount it can be taken in really depends on the dress, how detailed it is, etc. Some dresses can be taken in a size and I have heard of other dresses being taken in 3 sizes.

I would definately call your shop and see if you can get remeasured, so they know if the dress can be altered or if you can order a different size
