- SIZING -
Karly: "When you say 'yes' to your dress, your size is then taken down for ordering, but how do they pick a size? How do you know what size you are?
The consultant will measure your bust, waist, and hip; every designer has a size chart and will differ. Many brides are under the misconception that when we take your measurements, we'll actually be ordering the dress per your measurements, and that is not unfortunately how it works. Consultants will pull out the size chart and will go based off of each of those individual three measurements and figure out what the bride is closest to. That being said, when the dress comes in, it is going to very, very rarely fit perfectly.
And it’s just part of the process.
Brides will need to alter it. This is to their height with the shoes they're wearing that day, a bustle, and other things. The size chart is not an exact science in the sense that the bride will not fit precisely into a sample size. If your bust, for example, is measuring at a 10, but your waist is measuring at a 6 and your hips are measuring at a 14, we’re getting you a 14. But don’t worry, the dresses are made to be altered, and they can definitely be made down smaller. Better to have it big than too small. Trust us!"
