Unsure if My dress is cut too short

Unsure if My dress is cut too short

I may be going crazy right now, thinking about this. But, today was my 2nd fitting and I totally forgot to carry my shoes/crinolin. I had on sandals that were 1 inch shorter then my wedding shoes. The crinolin, they gave me I think, was a little bit puffier then the one I have at home. But, for some strange reason, it felt like the dress was altered, a little too short. I want to run back there again, tomorrow, to try on everything again, with the proper attire, to re-assure myself.

What is your opinion?

I know....(I think, they put this especially for me )

Do you think, they can lengthen it, once they cut it. The seamstress can do magic sometimes, with clothing. Right? I just figured, it was too late since it is cut.

Well, I'm sorry to hear this. Hopefully it's not really a problem. WORSE case scenario, can you get new shoes that are flatter?

I think you will be fine- they usually have some reserve in a hem ( I believe so)
Take a deep breath and go back tomorrow.
Take the shoes you had on and your wedding shoes to compare- maybe you are just second guessing?!?!

Have a glass of wine



Good luck

Edited to add- god forbid it can't be lengthed-- Bride 121502 is right....lower heels should do it

I did what you did, use the crinoline and the salon shoes but then the dress was too long since the crinoline was bigger. When I did bring mine in they had to shorten it.
Take in YOUR stuff. You still have time :)

I would try it on again with the proper accessories. It will make you feel better.

Its prob to short b/c of the bigger slip. Go back with you stuff just to make yourself feel better.

That's what I was going to suggest. Go back with your shoes & see it, so if it is too short you can buy new shoes.
