I am in my BFs wedding in about 6.5 weeks. I bought my dress in mid March before I was pregnant. This pregnancy was a happy accident (we weren't trying, but not preventing either). I just got my dress and it won't even zip. To date, I've gained less than 10 pounds, but I'm a belly and boob gainer, so yeah, it doesn't fit.
It's very flow-y and empire waisted, so I assumed I'd be fine, but no. Am I totally screwed? Is sewing extra fabric in a thing?
My BF is totally chill and is just like, "Don't worry, we'll make it work," but I am still worried.
Re: Well shit.
I'd wait a bit longer to do the alterations, though, in case you grow some more
Jan17 Sept Sig: Pumpkin Spice gone too far
shop in the morning and see what they can do for me. If it's going to be insanely pricey, I'll ask my coworker who was a garment seamstress for many years if she can help at all.
I called this morning and the lady was super helpful. She said it shouldn't be a big deal, or too expensive to just add in a panel. She's going to call me on Monday and help me get the details worked out.
Just wanted to share my version of going through this.
