What if I need to alter the dress is there any size buffers
What if I need to alter the dress is there any size buffers or allowance?
If your size fluctuates or you want to modify the dress slightly, we always leave a few inches in the seams so that your local tailor can easily make alterations as needed. Dresses generally have a margin of 1 inch on either side of a seam. Flower detailing, beading or belts/ribbons may limit the ability to let a dress out.
Dresses or clothing that does not fit properly but fits the specifications you ordered cannot be returned or exchanged. As our dresses and clothing is made with additional fabric in the seams, you can make minor adjustments at a local tailor, at your own cost.
