    OK so i typically dont write vents, but instead, this time i'm going to take full advantage of a strong group of woman to back me up and support my anger! 

    Bottom line of the story, I am not wrong, they are.

    In October, i tried on my dress and it fit like a glove. It was a size 8 bc i specifically remember asking what size it was and he told me 8 and i was like PAH! i wanna be a 6!!!!! I was the first girl to ever try this dress on in the store, bc they had just gotten it in.

    Anyways, fast forward 3 months, (last night) My dress came in the day prior and I immediatly made an appt to go in the next night and try it on!!! I brought my 3 sisters with me, just incase anything god forbid did go wrong, they were there with their strong hands . WELL I tried on my dress, and sure enough it didnt fit.. NOT EVEN CLOSE.. we couldnt even get the zipper up half way.. I asked what size it was and he said a 6. I said a 6? really? I asked what size the sample was.. He said oh the sample is an 8. I said okkk so the sample fit like a glove, and I told him to order the sample size.... Well 3 months later, here comes a size 6 bc APPARENTLY when i tried the dress on, they had a brand new 6 in house... afteri left the sent the 6 back to get an 8 so more girls could try it on as its a more common size.  I told him that makes no sense.... 

    Anyways... i will spare u the rest of the details but i called this morning, they oredered me the size 8 and when i talked to tthe guy who ordered my dress he was apoligetic but still said i def tried on the six.. such a load of CRAP

    The samples get stretched out because of all the different women trying them on.  Did they measure you when they ordered your dress?

    @GroovyHippieChick:  Well I would normally totally agree, but the "6" that i tried on was brand new. And was told they just got it in and i was the first girl to try it on... (this was reconfirmed last night by both employees)  SO if i tried on a brand new unworn 6 sample... My brand new size 6 dress would fit the same if not similar... The 8sample fit like a glove although i could feel in the breast area how it may have been tried on a couple of times...

    @KatNYC2011:  It said a 6... My mom signed for it though bc she bought me the dress... But honestly, even if i did double check the size, I would have trusted him that he ordered the sample size... Honestly whati think happened.. what he ordered the size 6.. realized before i even came into the store that they wanted an 8 so most girls could try it on, and sent it back.. they got the 8 in and I was the first girl to try it on.. I"ve lost 5 lbs since october.. no way i went up a dress size..

    @kim14410:  I'm glad they are working with you on this especially since you signed off on the 6. 

    I know when I signed my contract they said it was on me to confirm the sizing was right and I was responsible for that part. 

    Sounds like a great salon if they are willing to get you the 8 even though the contract says 6.

    @KatNYC2011:  Well actually, i should ask my mom where that copy of the contract is, bc she has it.. And they didnt show it to me at the salon last night.. but if thats the case and we did sign off on it, i guess your right huh... didnt think of that.. well either way.. Im still mad hahaa
