Ahhh Hitchers I need help...

I would have thought it being a sample it should be cheaper yes. But are you sure you want to buy a dress that is too small ? Couldn't you call round their stockists ?

Ooooh tricky........

How many inches would you need to loose roughly?

Well it fits me everywhere except around the hips

I'd say two max...

Also think the dress should be cheaper with it being a sample so will negociate a price too...

Also this is my worry!!

My mum is going to come over next sunday to have a look at it and see what she thinks too!

I'd get it then, and work damn hard to get those two inches off my hips!

When your wedding again?

And you should hopefully get a bargain !

Hiya

it is a beautiful dress............what size would you need for it to fit properly?

I would get it to be honest and work very hard to get the inches off the hips..

Ahhh fabulous ladies!!

I'd only really need it in the the size above around the hips as it fits everywhere else!

Im going to speak to the manager tomorrow and hopefully get a bargin after my mum has seen it!

I really need the dress in a 14 but the dress is a 12

(im a 12 normally in dresses im just pair shaped!) x

Oh and my wedding isnt until July 2012 x

I ordered my dress a size smaller.When the lady measured me she said i was in between two sizes. This was last November . I have lost 1 stone and 2lb since then. My dress should be in the end of April. I have found it a really good motivator but i did want to lose the weight anyway as it was left over baby weight (although that "baby" is now 3 lol).

I would go for it.

What about wearing some of those 'suck in wonder pants' when you try it on again. That will give a smoother line over the hips & a better idea of how it will fit if you loose a little weight.

The other option is a boned corset, but I am told you need months of wearing such a thing to get used to it, but, it can take you in several inches.

Might it be worth ringing round some other dress shops to see if anybody else has one in the correct size?

This is a size 14

have you tried googling the dress you want....there are lots of stockists near Manchester...perhaps ring them up see if they have the dress in stock in your size?

Hold everything in pants is a fab idea and July next year you have plenty of time to get

them 2 inches off....go for it hunni i would !

If you can alter it ok if its still to small I would go for it, but definitely think ringing round is a good idea as well.

Good luck and let us know with flash!!!!

I had this same dilemma tried on a dress I love in the shop then saw it online for less than half price in a size smaller. My weddings June 2012 so debated losing the weight but have now decided that I am going to leave the dress as I still have ample time and want to polong the fun of dress shopping

Girls!

You never fail to help me in my time of need!!

I went back to see the dress today and it looked tatty and the owner was quite rude and reluctant to give a discount...

So am going to ring around and sort it out if anyone else has it!

Thanks you so so so so so so much x xx
