I just had my second fitting with the seamstress and it didn't go well. I felt like I was going to pop out of the dress so we pulled it up more but then the straps were too tight and made my shoulders red in five minutes. It was also still too long. Nothing that we altered fit right. In addition, she kept saying that I couldn't do the electric slide in the dress that I couldn't lean back ever that I'd have to be really delicate all the time. She kept saying this isn't jeans and a t shirt. After the fitting, I cried a lot. I just really wanted it to fit right and look perfect and it doesn't. I want to be able to move around and dance in it and not worry. She is stressing me out so much with all of her negative comments that I don't even like my dress anymore because I just keep seeing everything that's wrong with it. I really want to put on my dress and feel pretty and she just tore me down with her comments.
So, I was thinking about ordering a different dress to wear at the reception in case she's right and I won't be able to dance without popping out of this dress or whatever. I found a tea length one that I love from lightinthebox.com but it costs two hundred dollars and if I ordered it today, it could get here at latest the week before my wedding.
Should I buy the second dress or not?
I did not budget on another dress and before I met this seamstress, I had really loved my dress and planned on wearing it all night. Her comments have literally made me sick with anxiety. I feel like she's going to make the dress worse. She's already had it for five weeks and now it will take another month to make it shorter and shorten the straps. I'm afraid it just won't turn out right.
