I'm ordering a Sophia Tolli dress.
The sample I tried on was big in the hips, but it fit great everywhere else as it’s a corset back so they can make it as tight or lose as needed
The sample was a size 10.
The store is recommending I order an 8, but look at the size chart:
size 8: 36, 28, 38
My exact measurements: 36.5, 28.5, 39.5
size 10: 37.5, 29.5, and 40
With a corset, they said the measurements don’t have to be exact.
Obviously getting a 10 is ‘safe’, but it will be very expensive to alter. I do have that extra 5 lbs of winter weight on right now.
Should I order a 10 to be safe or just go off what the bridal salon is recommending?
