Lace Dress Alterations

Hello! Not sure who needs to hear this, but if you’re in the process of dress shopping and are a fan of lace, just note alterations can get pricey! No one warned me so I thought I would let others know. When hemming the bottom, due to the intricate lace, the options were to cut it off and have it frayed or remove the lace and move it all up 4 inches. The latter being more expensive than the first option. Just a heads up if you’re also a fan of lace!
