Size & Alteration Guide
Buying a dress can be tricky, let's break it down for you.
bust
-measure around your bust & back at the fullest part of your bust.
waist
-measure around your natural waist (narrowest part of your waist). Do not suck in! *usually 5-6 inches from bottom of bust.
hips
-measure down 5-6 inches from your waist, at the fullest part of your hip.
waist to hem
-length from waist to floor/bottom of dress *best to wear ideal height of heels while measuring.
Tips for Alterations
-waist is generally easy to take in.
-most dresses can be taken in 1-3 sizes & let out 1 size (depends on seam allowances).
-bust & waist are usually altered for best fit.
-length is very important, it's very difficult to extend the length, unless there is extra fabric tacked down.
