Re: when is good to go for a fitting?
I would say about 6 months start going for fitting. If you go now and they take something in and then 1 1/2 years is a long time cause you can lose weight or gain and you don't want them to keep taking in the dress and letting it out each time. So I would say first fitting after the 6 month mark. no sooner.

I would go when it comes it to see it and to make sure it fits you at this time. First fitting should be a few months before the wedding.

Re: when is good to go for a fitting?
depends how much you need taken in or let out. you might go for your first fitting and it fit perfect and not need anymore. But if you do then you go back untill it's just right. I would say about 2-3 fittings.

And espically if you plan on loosing don't go for fittings now. just go look at it an dmaybe try it on. But don't have them do a fitting now. wait till about 3-4 months before.

Re: when is good to go for a fitting?
yeah, wait....I haven't even bought my dress yet. I'm pretty sure I know what I want but I want to loose more weight before I order a dress, and have to alter it a few dress sizes.

I was told that they can only two two sizes up or two sizes down before the dress gets distorted/changed for fittings. I was in a shop where a girl lost a lot of pounds and her dress was staring to look funcy!

exactly, its too early regardless but especially if you plan to lose weight then def dont go now for fittings bc it will be pointless
