So last night I had my bridesmaids over to try on the dresses. I was thinking a few simple changes would need to be made then an easy finish and move on to the next item on the 'To Do' list.
Turns out we will be starting all over again! Which is something I hadn't prepared for, but it is always a possibility when you have to make three dresses that need to match and look perfect for three different people with three different body shapes. At the end of the day, I would rather start over than make them wear a dress they don't feel comfortable in. As a designer, seamstress, sister and bride it wouldn't be right. And I got to spend the whole day today drinking coffee and designing new dresses - which is pretty awesome really.
I would like to say a huge THANK YOU to Rachel and the team at Backstreet Bargains. They helped me find the perfect fabric for the dresses the first time round and now I get experience their lovely service all over again! And more positives: I will be finishing the three dresses I started! I may auction them on TradeMe, just because I know it is wedding season and there will be other people looking for dresses. They are all in perfect new, custom made condition - just a few sizes too small. So if you are looking for three dresses in sizes 10-14 or maybe just want one for your summer wardrobe, get in touch!
Will be continuing the bridesmaid dress adventure in September, thanks for reading!
