Doesn’t the final try on mean the dress should be done?
August 21st, 2007
Mom and I went to the alterations shop for the final fitting for the dress today. She and I were both under the impression that the dress would be done seeing as it was the last fitting before the wedding. Evidently “final” had a different meaning to the alterations lady. The hem was still not finished. The bustle was connected with a safety pin. The alterations lady did not finish the bustle because she wanted to show us an alternative bustle to the one we had chosen. We did agree that the new bustle looked better. It also needed 4 more hooks. Shockingly, those 4 extra hooks cost more money.
Mom and I will have to do a thorough inspection of the dress when we pick it up on Friday to make sure that “done” really means “done”.
