ok so....i am seriously at the point that i might just go get another dress. i really dont know what to do. i posted pics before of my issue....the designer sowed the top and bottom together in middle, which is fine, i guess some of them do that....but the "stitched line" is absolutely driving me insane and my eye automatically goes down to it. im long waisted with short legs.....and i really feel like this dress, JUST because of that "line" is making me look even longer waisted!!!!! i really did love the dress when i bought it, and i figured it was just too big on me and the seamstress said thet could always take the boning out of the top so that it didnt stick out as much so i didnt worry about it. plus....i didnt realize that the dress was sown together from the middle. i went to a master seamstress who told me she couldnt really do anything about it but maybe add more beading and appliques right above that spot to draw my eye away from it. even when i had the dress on at the seamstress....i just felt "eh"....thats not good!! the beading makes the dress not "flowy" as well....which is fine because its so pretty but i always imagined myself in a fluffier dress i guess. i think i listened to too many opinions when i went dress shopping. here's the catch....my mom payed for this dress, and i feel like i would break her heart if i told her i was going to pay for another dress! Or do i just suck it up and make the best of it and shut my mouth?? whenever i try it on, i just feel OK, i dont feel beautiful in it, and then i go home and look at the pics of me in it.....and i dont know why the designer wouldnt have stiched the dress together underneath the sash!! then it would be fine
