My dress doesn't fit anymore!

I went to my last dress fitting about 2 weeks ago and the dress fit well.... I tried it on again yesterday and to my distress it is now too loose! I have NOT been crash dieting and in fact have stopped going to the gym. I don't know what to do. My wedding is in 8 days and I can't afford to have it altered again. Should I just eat a lot and try to gain weight?!

Please share any ideas you have!!!

Re: My dress doesn't fit anymore!

  • Was it around that time of the month a couple of weeks ago, could you have been retaining water at the last fitting? If so is there a chance that you might be retaining water or something in 8 days and it might fit again?  What areas is it loose in? I may be able to come up with some tricks for you, crash weight gain is probably not the best option just in case you are fluctating.
  • I wouldn't try to gain weight. It depends on how big it looks and where it looks big. If it really doesn't fit properly, you should have it altered again.
  • In a pinch, you can hand stich your gown to your undergarments to ensure that it doens't fall down.
