To work through this phase, my stylist would text me. It made the process quick and accessible. 6 days later I received my sketch back!
I immediately had a few changes to make. My stylist was incredibly helpful in answering all of my questions quickly and helping talk to me about what may look best. I asked her to:- Make the train a chapel length (which added $25)- Make the neckline a bit lower- Make the neckline a bit more sweetheart shaped- Make the unlined illusion in the back wrap around a bit to the front of the dress
Here are my sketches before those changes!
4 to 5 days later, she sent me a few updates on the back of the dress. She explained how bustles work (even though they do not do bustles and you need to have them done in alterations) and we entertained the idea of buttons going down to their flair point.
After this I decided I didn't want to buttons going that low, and that I wanted to skirt to be lined more so it didn't get caught in something and dirty at my outdoor venue. Here is the update:
I should be receiving another full sketch of my dress soon with all the updates!
