Losing weight after buying dress

StephanieLuna, on June 30, 2018 at 12:52 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 11
Buyer beware! I thought losing 10lbs would help make me look so much better in my wedding dress. I had back fat that would hang over the back of my dress, bigger arms and it made me so self conscious. I didn't realize how big I was! I tried on my dress after I lost the weight and felt amazing but was not prepared on how much it would change the actual fit. The skirt is lower than I originally thought and it hits so low its crazy. Just wanted to let y'all know, this could happen 🙄 Lol

    Don't despair! This is a great problem to have! All you need is a great seamstress that can fix it Smiley smile

    You look fabulous ! Obviously you want to look great on wedding day (I’ve been doing CrossFit 3x week and boxing 1x week). BUT losing weight and looking great is forever so remember the rewards beyond how your dress fits !

    All of what she said. You look great by the way. I am in the process of trying to lose my belly fat. Wedding in Oct. My dress has built in boning so that shouldn't cause too many issues for me because it can be tightened with the criss cross strings in the back. Thank you for the heads up though.

    Thank you ladies! I'm so motivated to lose even more. My dress is a corsette with boning and I think I will feel better with a flatter belly. So I'd like to lose 10 more but no more than that lol

    Congrats on the weight loss. Same thing happened to me. I'm down 9lbs so far, and my seamstress has to take my dress in Again! I have my final fitting at the end of July, she told me not too lose anymore weight, but I'm still 8lbs from my goal. Let's hope I lose it in places that won't effect my dress! Lol. Keep up the good work! Your dress looks great!

    I thought you looked wonderful honey. I agree with the first poster too, it's a pretty good problem to have.
    Wish you all the luck you need on getting the dress how you want it though because that's what matters most.
