Hi all,
Just wondering if anyone has tried to negotiate the cost of your dresses/alterations with the shop when ordering them? I'm quite teeny (particularly height-wise) so any dresses I've liked are going to need substantial alterations and I know there's a huge amount of technical work that goes into this and I really appreciate that, but I do feel like it's a bit of a tax on size. It means that dresses that initially sound like they are within my budget actually aren't because of the phenomenal additional costs. If only I could be a bit taller....
Has anyone had any luck or tips to share on negotiating and ways to get the costs down (beyond going for a much cheaper dress, because they will all need altering!)?
