So I don't have close family or really close friends. Long story short I am Queer and my family doesn't approve, they're not coming to the wedding and I don't consider any of my friends super close. Therefore, dress shopping in person seemed rather depressing and I wanted to opt out so I did. I went online to Anomalie and "designed" my dress, paid and received it. I was incredibly excited to see it and when I saw it in person I still was. I lost a lot of weight after the phase one quarantine, so by the time I received the dress was HUGE on me. Trying it on I look like I'm a box, just no figure, just drowning in it. The boobage area is super low and I look like my breasts are down to my bellybutton and it is way too long. It also didn't help that the one person I was excited to show it to (my MOH) was like "oh I expected something way different, like couture or extravagant because of how you are." Needless to say I was bummed. I have gone as far as listing it for sell online in hopes of getting SOME money back. I am still getting married and hope to find a super cheap used dress that'll fit and make me feel better. I don't know how much alterations would be but given it is huge on me and way too puffy, I doubt they'll be below $200. I just hate this situation and never thought I'd be in it.
