Boning in bust area

Marychanel, on March 14, 2022 at 9:24 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 2
Hi everyone!


I fell in love with a brand new gown another bride is selling. I don’t have time to order a custom dress, so I will need to alter the current gown.
The cups are shaped with boning for the original bride who is about a B cup. Would it be possible to modify/alter the boning size to fit a larger cup size?
I appreciate the feedback!

    That is something only a seamstress can answer. You can make a dress (and a bra/corset in this case) smaller but you can’t make it larger.

    It’s possible to reshape boning to better fit other cup sizes (I worked in bridal for three years, got familiar with alterations) however, if it’s more than a cup size or two difference, boning might not make enough of a difference. You’ll need to compare your measurements to the sellers measurements- because two people can have different cup sizes but really close bust measurements.
