    Can anyone tell me if they have had their pronovias dress let out? I am thinking I might have gotten my size a little wrong and I am one size larger in the bust.

    Everyone says it depends on the designer so I was wondering if anyone had this done? I know I have gained a few pounds recently so I have to lose that before bothering to go to an alterations specialist but I dont think it is going to help in the bust area - the dress is about 1.5" too small up there.

     

    Any tips would be appreciated!

    I think you still have plenty of time to lose some weight. Personally, for me, the boobs are the first to go lol

    SOrry I cant be more help

    @HoneyBear:

    LOL... well my boobs are... errr 'store bought' so they arent going anywhere. Its such a tiny difference! I emailed Pronovias but I have NEVER had luck with ANY designer actually responding to an email not directly sent from a retailer.

    Next thing on my weight loss will be hips and arms. That last 5lbs made my upper arm look more like THIGHS! lol

    My seamstress was able to let out about half an inch on each side.  I wore the Pronovias Rosana dress =)

    @creme_de_violet:

     

    Thanks for the info! Thats such a relief! I guess worst case scenario we have to replace the zipper with corset.

    Funny because I search high and low for a dress with corset but fell in love with this one because the buttons actually BUTTON on the back and go all the way down below my hips. I would hate to lose them now! lol
