Hello! I recently bought my wedding dress at RK Bridal in NYC. I had tried on about 8 dresses total and this is the one that I fell in love with because it looks so pretty. However, it was difficult to walk in at the store - the sample was several sizes too big and was clipped tightly around my body to make it fit properly. I do realize its a mermaid dress and that's how it's meant to fit, but I didn't realize how important that was until now that I'm thinking about walking all day, dancing, etc, and I'm freaking out. The good thing was that it was a plus size dress (long story) so the size that I ordered is technically 2 sizes too big for me. I am hoping that since there's like 4 inches extra in the dress that I'll be able to get a slightly looser fit from below my hips down. Has anyone had alterations like that done before, altering the original fit/style? The style is Allure Woman W371. Thank you!
