Dress alterations - removing sequins/beading?

Elizabeth, 19 August, 2021 at 22:53 Posted on Wedding Attire 0 2

I know it's common that people have detail added on to their dress like sequins and beading, but has anyone done the opposite and removed them?

The dress I have bought was a shop sample. It has lace on the bodice and lace appliques on the skirt. I love the lace but it has small sequins scattered around and little pearl beads here and there. I'm not in love with the sparkles and would prefer if it was just plain lace.

Just wondering if anyone has had any experience of removing these or if it's not worth the hassle?

    My SIL had some appliques moved on her dress, guess it depends if the bits you want to remove are seen on their own or part of the original overlay. Maybe just call a seamstress in your area and see if it is possible and the cost as it may be fidlly so could be expensive, and go from there
