okay..so it wont zip all the way...side zipper and gets stuck at my rib cage. seamstress said it can be let out (i think its an inch or less). Dont have a fitting until october so perhpas i can lose a few pounds by then? I have a pretty 'average' figure..(size 6..never have to alter things)..how strange that it would be tight there and fit perfectly everywhere else...
anyone else had this kind of problem?
UGH!

I was told by a seamstress that I have wide ribs for my frame... I feel your pain.

I bought a sample size dress that was too small...I was REALLY nervous but they let it out like like 2-3' and it came out beautifully.

Your dress isnt by chance Oleg Cassini is it? I had the same exact problem and I know for a fact it is a common problem with my dress. I was planning on having my dress taken out like you say, but I ended up losing like 20 lbs (alot stress related..believe me I am not bragging) and now I dont.
I dont think the problem is you...it is probably a quirk with the dress.

Re: Tried on gown for first time.
That happened to me! My dress fits me everywhere except the zipper doesn't go up all the way....like the top three inches or so. I was so worried that I gained like a ton of weight, but I'm a size 4 and there's really nothing fat on my back...what's there is skin and bones. I guess I'm like you and have wide ribs. I haven't tried on my dress since May and I'm really hoping I lost just a little weight so I don't have the zipper issue anymore.

Re: Tried on gown for first time.
mine was so tight on my boobs that they let it out a quarter of an inch on each side and it fit perfectly after that... i would imagine that everyone has one part of the body that never really fits into one size perfectly
