Do you think a seamstress could alter this neckline?

Do you think a seamstress can change the neckline on this dress so it doesn't go all the way up to my neck?

    It definitely looks like it can be altered. Did the shop have someone they recommended? I’d suggest just contacting a seamstress and showing them pictures. Beautiful dress! Good luck!

    Yes! Well, at least I think so.
    My mom is a seamstress and I had a dress with that kind of neckline. She altered it for me.

    Hi Christina!

    Your dress is so pretty! Love the lace.

    I would definitely second Jessica’s advice and recommend you contact some local seamstresses. Share a picture of your dress and explain what you would like to do alterations wise. They would be in the best position to recommend if this is something that can be done with all their experience Smiley smile

    Where would you like the neckline to go up as far as?
