So I had a mermaid dress made. I love it and its exactly what I wanted, except its a little to tight in the booty area. It zips all the way up but because its to tight in booty, it makes the matieral in the tummy area puckered. Can a seamstress fix this or am I just screwed?

    How long until your wedding?  Any chance of losing maybe 5 pounds?   Have you tried using body-shapers?

    It's possible that a seamstress could let the seams out a little bit, but depending on the fabric and any detail like beading, it could get expensive.  A seamstress will be able to tell you what can and can't be done, and how much it will cost.

    Avionics said it all. Body shapers are your friend.

    Take it to a seamstress. She can give you good advice about whether it's worth it to take the dress out a bit or rely on body shapers.

    If you had it made how did it end up too small? If who ever made it for did so incorrectly they should have to pay for it to be fixed.
