Wedding dress alterations

Its a beautiful dress

I have no idea when it comes to alterations to be honest but i would bet money on it that any good quality seamstress would be able to alter this dress to fit you whilst keeping the style of the dress the same.

If you are thinking of buying it from a bridal shop, ask the staff in there as they would have no doubt altered this for someone before.

Good luck but i would be very surprised if you couldnt get this one otherwise they would only be able to see to people of a certain height.

not many brides would be that exact height.

Wow beautiful dress! I tried on a dress in one shop that had really intricate lace at the bottom and my mum happened to enquire how they would manage to take it up and they explained how the seamstress does it. I'm really sorry i can't remember how she said they did it but I know it IS possible, although I think it takes a lot of time so may be more expensive than a more simple dress would cost to alter. Don't panic, like the others said they wouldn't sell it if it wasn't possible.

Gorgeous dress! I'm pretty sure that any good seamstress will be able to make the necessary alterations. It is expected that practically every wedding dress will have some sort of alterations so it must be possible.

My dress also has a lot of lace detail (Emma by Maggie Sottero) and I had to order the extra length as the regular was too short. I've not tried it on with my actual wedding shoes yet but I'm pretty sure a little bit of length will have to come off. I spoke to the seamstress and she said she has altered about 3 Emma's this year so I'm pretty confident in her abilities.

I would suggest talking to the seamstress and I'm sure she'll put your mind at rest.
