I bought my dress last July and I loved it, still do. At the time I didn't think about sitting, or moving in it, no issue when just standing. I fit in the sample size but ordered 1 size larger because it was slightly snug. Dress came in and I tried it on and it was a bit snug at the hips & thighs and I realized I can't sit, bend, take large steps, and I don't think I can lift it above my hips incase nature calls. At alteration I was advised the lining has enough to take it out 1/2 and inch but the outer lace lining is one piece with no real seam so not possible to let that out. The lady doing the alterations didn't think it needed to be let out. I love how curvy it makes me look and would never consider changing it or switching but not sure what to do. I am going to try and lose some more weight but the last few pounds all seem to be from my torso which is not helping as dress is a corset back. Any suggestions on what I can do? Do I really need to sit? Only 1 month to go.
