u/Fit-Vast2147

So over the last few months, we’ve been going through alterations so that I can wear my moms wedding dress as my own!! I absolutely love how it came out, and wanted to show the transformation from first try on to pick up. Top left is the first time I ever tried on, I loved the basque waist and lace, but didn’t feel like the sweetheart neckline suited me, so we asked the seamstress to fit the dress to me, and straighten out the neckline. The bottom left is after the first round of alterations, I loved the change in fit and neckline, but still felt like something was off, and determined the sleeves were still a little too thick, which felt unflattering on me. Finally, the right picture is pick up day with final alterations! She took about 3/4 inch off the sleeves, and I feel like it opened up the neckline SO MUCH!!! I just wanted to show the transformation of it all, this dress feels so sentimental, romantic, and unique and I can’t wait to wear it next year :)
