Hi Brides,

 

I think I'm having a minor meltdown (lol I'm dramatic).

 

I found my dress (Mori Lee 4968) this past Saturday and I am in love with it. But I really wanted a sweetheart neckline. My bridal consultant assured me that with alterations I can make a sweetheart neckline.

 

Here's the thing, I happened to be looking at the designer's website and stumbled across a very similar dress (Mori Lee 3124) with the sweetheart neckline I wanted. The other problem is that style only comes in plus size (which I am not).

 

So I was wondering if I would be able to request the designer to customize my dress to have the neckline that I want. I don't see it being a problem because they're both the same designer. I plan on calling them first thing Monday morning.

 

Are there any other brides out here that was able to have something done like that?

Yes. As long as the designer  team agrees to it. My dress was Enzoani and they offered to make it in sweetheart, however the people at the bridal store of course wanted my business and said it would be cheaper for me to have them do it, to which I agreed...but there was still the option to have it made that way before it arrived. Looks beautiful on you!!

Okay, you Ladies have been so helpful and responsive that I need to ask a final alterations question beofre my appt tomorrow... I always wanted a sweet heart neckline, and it's the only characteristic of my wedding dress list of requirement that my dress doesn't meet. However, I love the scalloped lace edge detailing on my dresses original design and thought is was a nice trade-off.  I've been contemplating altering the neckline to a sweetheart and in a perfect world I would keep the scalloped detailing, but this is an unlikely option based on the feedback from my seamstress after send a pic.  So what to do...keep the neckline as is or sacrafice the scalloped lace and get a sweetheart?

leave it as is... girl you rocking this dress... it looks perfect on you dont change ah thing!

Thank you!  I actually wen with a happy medium... I left the lace intact but altered the underlayer to a modified sweetheart it will be similar to this, but the lace overlay won't come up as high. But I think it's a win win!

Love this dress and it looks fantastic on you!  Any good seamstress can make this alteration and should be pretty cost effective.  The only two considerations that I would make is that if you alter it after production, you may only be able to achieve a modified sweetheart due to the rouching (sp?), I would just confirm this. Also, one advantage of having Mori Lee customize this for you, is that the bodice at the bust line has a the cross-over detail which couldn’t be achieved in alterations.  But the cost for Mori Lee to do this customization could be double if not triple and in all honesty not really necessary unless the details shown are a deal breaker for you.

Let me just tell you that this is one of my all time favorite dresses!!! Unfortunately a friend of mine wore it to her wedding so I thought it might be weird if I wore it as well! haha But its gorgeous and you look amazing in it!!
