Dress is TOO tight!!!

HELP! 

Just picked up my bridesmaid dress today...David's Bridal took the top in way too tight, the wedding is a week away. 

The dress has always been snug through my hips (it's a lace dress, the lace overlay isn't tight, it's the skirt/slip underneath) but now it's tight around my chest too! 

I'm in full blown panic mode. I can go braless and the top fits a little better but it's not particularly comfortable. 

PLEASE any tips/advice is needed! Can a seamstress/tailor add fabric to the skirt?

    You shouldn't have accepted the dress if it didn't fit correctly. Go back to the shop to speak to the manager.

    Bring it back to the store, tell them it's too tight, and make them let it out for you.

    Take it back to the shop and let them know that it's too tight and needs alteration so you can wear it comfortably.

    They can most likely let the seams back out. My wedding dress was too tight when it came in, so they removed from boning from the inside and took out the two side seams. It gave me an inch or two more room. 

    Go back to the store. Tell them your concerns. Have them fix it.
