Frustrating
My sister is getting married in June, and picked a highend bridal shop to get her dress from, and so she wants us to get our bridesmaid dresses from there as well. Our 15 year old sister and I are her only bridesmaids. When we went to try dresses on this weekend, I found out the only stock one of each dress, in a size 12. So the size 12 doesn't zip up over my boobies, and our little sis doesn't even have to unzip them to get in and out of them. How are we supposed to know how these dresses really fit!!? Ugh, frustrating.
Re: Frustrating
Since they're designer, they go off of body measurements. They have charts and such to determine what size your measurements will fit into.
I actually ordered a bridesmaid dress I had never tried on for my friend's wedding. Just went in, got measured, paid an obscene amount of money, and poof, I got a dress a few weeks later. Of course it needed some alterations, but most dresses do.
Oooooooooooooh, I"m sorry, I read wrong, lol. Don't mind me.
Yes, I know what you mean. I have the opposite problem: I'm very hippy (pear shaped). I was REALLY nervous about what the dress would look like without actualy seeing it on.
Out of curiousity, is there a picture we can see of the dress? Did the store attendant say anything encouraging, like, "oh, I've seen other women like you in this dress, and it works out?"
Here's the dress, I just talked to my mom and we both agreed that if any dress is going to give me good coverage, this one should. The only thing I worry about is the armpit spillage (yes thats a proper term, and I have this problem).
