No two bodies are the same, and you want your wedding dress to fit your body perfectly. Have you found your dream dress, but it doesn't fit quite perfectly? Or do you want to have an old family dress altered so that it fits your body seamlessly? Then you can have your wedding dress altered. But what exactly are the possibilities, and how is a wedding dress altered? We explain it to you here, so read on!
Altering a wedding dress
Altering wedding dresses is a special task and a craft in itself. It requires great precision because everyone has a different body. It is therefore essential that your body is carefully examined. Altering a dress must be done with extreme accuracy, so it is best left to the expert.
As you already know, it is smart to start the search for your wedding dress on time . Have you found your dream dress? Then it often still needs to be ordered and made to measure. This can take several months. Therefore, buy your dress six to nine months before the big day. That way, you know for sure that it is ready to shine with you on your wedding day.
What adjustments can you have made?
Adjust the length:
The length of a wedding dress is more precise than ever, and in most cases, the length of the wedding dress needs to be adjusted. You don't want it to be too long so you trip over the dress. Is it too short? That just doesn't look quite right with most wedding dresses. Does your dream dress have a train, but you don't really like it? Then it can be shortened as well.
Taking in the dress:
Is the dress just a little too loose? Then the dress can be taken in slightly at the seam where necessary. Because this is done at the seam, you won't see a thing!
Explaining the dress:
Is it tight and are you afraid that your dress will rip at the end of your wedding? Then you can also have it loosened up a bit. Unfortunately, not every dress is suitable for being let out. So always ask about the possibilities in good time! The hem of the side seam needs to be wide to loosen a dress beautifully.
Minor adjustments:
You can also have a zipper replaced with a drawstring, change the neckline, make your dress strapless, or add details. There are many possibilities, so clearly communicate your wishes to the sales assistant.
