Hi Everyone!!!
I just recently ordered Maggie Sottero’s Grace. I love it…but the regular size was too long. SO the consultant at the salon asked me how high the shoes were that I would be wearing and said that they could order a petite size and that would take 3 inches off the length.
Is this only the length of the dress or will it be short in the bodice as well??? I’m starting to panic! HELP!
Thanks!

I just ordered my petite Maggie tonight. I could be wrong, but when my consultant explained it, it sounded like it would just take some length off the bottom. Maybe you should call your salon to be sure? Grace is beautiful, by the way!

I also ordered a petite Maggie Milana dress and it will just be shorter in the length it will fit just like the regular one did just minus length. It will save be a ton of money since the bottom of my dress is so detailed it would have been a fortune to alter so I am foregoing the tall heels for ballet flats or 1/2 inch heel. It is going to look quite cute at the alter because I am 5’5 121 pounds and my Fiance is 6’4 260 pounds, I think I might need a step stool.

Hi Everyone!
Thanks for the responses. I feel much better. They way she explained it was that it would be shorter…but then I had a panic moment and then was worried what would happen with alterations etc.
Thank you for putting my mind to ease!

I am 5’3 and I ordered the petite. It is just shorter on the bottom. Just a warning ladies to leave alteration room in your budget because even with three inch heels I still need to get the dress taken up 
It wasn’t a fortune or anything but lots of unforseens can add up.
