Thinking of ordering from Cocomelody. True to size?

Becky, on December 11, 2018 at 5:08 PM Posted in Wedding Attire 0 10

Is Cocomelody true to size, or close? Thinking of getting my dress there to save money. Would it actually turn out to be more expensive than buying from a boutique like David's Bridal? How costly are alterations, if the dress is not 100% true to size?

    I don’t think David’s Bridal is a boutique at all. They’re a national chain.

    No one can tell you how much the alterations would be except for your seamstress.

    Either way it depends on the seamstresses personal pricing. Then lastly what exactly needs to be done. Is it too long, needs a corset back added, taken out, let out. Also what about the fabric is it lace, does it have beading/sequins? etc... Too many things to determine. Your best bet is to look at the return policy on cocomelody and maybe go in store to david's bridal or other bridal shops and try things on and gather your personal research.

    I've tried on some dresses at David's, and found one I loved. Its just really pricey. So I'm trying to figure out if its cheaper to order from a site like cocomelody, or if it comes out to around the same price with alterations.
