I need to vent a little about my dress issues!

I ordered in October, and had my first fitting last week. I tried it on, and it's so tight and 1.5" too short. My mom and I are both very upset about it and the seamstress kept telling me it'll be fine but the dress won't touch the floor. The sample I tried on was a 10 and huge on me, but a perfect length. The rep told me I wouldn't need extra length. When we ordered, we went a size up and was expecting the dress to come in massive. I haven't gained weight and I definitely haven't grown 2". The bridal shop (a high end store) isn't being very helpful and just keeps telling me it will be fine and to get new shoes. I bought these shoes since they were smaller heeled than the shoes I tried on with the sample. And I don't want to wear flats. Even comparing the pictures, it's clear the dress is just shorter overall. I'm so disappointed and don't know what to do! I'm going to get remeasured today, and hope we can come to a solution.

    TJacob - my dress isn't Allure. I did try a few of those and they were all long enough. I bought a Blue Willow (Anne Barge's line). All of the samples I tried with this designer were long enough in shoes and out of them!
