When your dress doesn't fit....

I ordered my dress Oct 2015. Just picked it up yesterday. When I tried it on in store, the sample was a size 12, it was a little snug but for the most part fit well. They ordered me a 14 and it fits tighter than the 12 did. I honestly do not think I gained weight, and if I did it was no more than 5...

I ordered my dress Oct 2015. Just picked it up yesterday. When I tried it on in store, the sample was a size 12, it was a little snug but for the most part fit well. They ordered me a 14 and it fits tighter than the 12 did. I honestly do not think I gained weight, and if I did it was no more than 5 pounds. They said the other sample dress has been stretched out with people trying it on (how is this possible with lace and beading..?) and that my measurements are for a 14 dress (even though the zipper won't go up where the beaded belt is). The top clasp will close though. I was pretty much humiliated while trying my dress on yesterday. Literally my worst nightmare. I'm on my period so they said that could play a factor?! And that a seamstress should be able to take the sides out a little.

My wedding is May 21 this year and I pretty much need to lose at LEAST 15 pounds by then. Has anyone else been in this situation?!

    Had the opposite problem and the shop was just kind of like "so sad too bad we can't order another because it won't be back until May..."

    When I paid my deposit they gave me a receipt with my measurement on it. Did you get their measurements in writing?
