Alterations - Making Sure Your Wedding Dress Fits

By Morris Riva

Wedding Dress Fits

If you are planning an upcoming marriage, either for the first time, or even a second marriage, one of the key items will be a wedding dress. This is also one of the easier areas to save money if you are willing to consider pre owned wedding dresses. Granted this choice will not appeal to everyone, however it does warrant further examination.

Take your dress to be altered around 3 months before your wedding - you will probably go back for 2 or 3 fitting sessions to make sure it is a perfect fit no matter whether you lose or gain a little weight before the big day! Bridal wear is designed with large seam allowances, which means that you can usually adjust a gown up a whole size if needs be. And however much weight you plan on losing before your big day, please don't make the mistake of buying a dress that is much too small to motivate you - you may end up with a dress you are unable to wear at all. Remember to bring your bridal lingerie and your shoes - body-shaping underwear can affect how the dress fits, and your seamstress will need to know how high your heels are so he or she can ensure the hem falls at the right height. You can also bring along your other accessories to give you a real idea of how you'll look on the day.

Bring along a friend, bridesmaid or your mum to the fittings to get another opinion and to keep you company - another pair of hands is always useful to help you get in and out of your dress and work out the logistics, especially if you need abned dressesto check how your train will be carried etc. Practice walking in your dress and your heels - for example, there's a little trick to walking in a full skirt where you kick your skirt ahead of you before each step to avoid treading on your hem!

It should come as no surprise that the biggest negatives associated with pre owned wedding gowns is the thought that someone else wore and got married in the dress before you. Some brides-to-be simply cannot get past this thought and strongly feel pre owned wedding dresses take something out of their "special day". Yet another way to look at this situation is that you are not wearing a dress someone abned dressesdied in, but instead a reminder of a very happy day. Perhaps the aura of her happiness will carry over to your day as well.

Yet another concern is the condition of some preowned wedding gowns. Since it has been worn there is a risk of having some damage to the dress such as a stain or tear in the textile of the dress. Obviously before buying, a close inspection of the preowned wedding gown is essential to avoid these kinds of problems.
