Alterations

Shoulder straps were tightened up. Back straps narrowed (brought closer together toward the zipper for a sleeker aesthetic from the back, (compare pic #3 on form to pic #5 at the alteration shop for the second fitting). Front hemline was altered to PRESERVE the scalloped hem detail on the lace. This was a VERY tedious and expensive ($800) alteration - the lace was completley removed , hem shortened and lace re-sewn onto the hemline to preserve the scalloping pattern (like you would professionally hem a pair of jeans). No alteration or shortening of the train or bustle. Narrowed a bit at the waist, small off the back, low hip top and sides of bust-line.
The original heavy, white, padded cups were removed and a thinner, more natural looking skin tone liner was added (the pads original to the gown made the dress look bulky and gave the bust an artificial "pointed" appearance). Dress was professional cleaned, preserved and boxed at Nichols Hills Cleaners in Oklahoma City - a 10 week process and an additional $400 ( the day after the wedding. It has been kept, undisturbed, in my home.
