    if your dress needs taking up then i would think they can make a panel from that spare material. yes gt a longer ribbon which will give u that extra bit aswell.

    Heya thanks for explaining it 2 me lol, well i had a look at my dress 2day and it has some popper things in it for a panel but the panel isnt there

    Do u think i could get one that is the same colour as my dress to go in it..?

    Also there wasnt match lace to do it up with so would it be possible to get a longer one maybe..?

    Thanks Sam x

    IT will definately work if it has the modesty panel with no need for alterations. My friends bridesmaids were both size 12 when the dresses were ordered and then one fell pg and was 8mths on the wedding day- and her dress still tied! Okay, we had to put elastic around the button on the skirt as it wouldn't tie up, but the panel stretched far enough to allow for the bump. HTH?

    lol

    i didnt know either till my friend explained

    where your dress laces up is there material underneath to hide your skin?

    if not u could have one added then from the back it wont show how wide apart the lacing is. if thta makes sense. lol

    u could take your dress to seemstress they might have an idea what u can do.

    Hey hun it laces up at the back but dont think it will go out much more, its a size 14 and im a 12/14. it wasnt done up tightly at the top as my mum couldnt pull it tight as she has bad back so may have a little stretch!

    Any other tips...?

    What style is it? Is there any room to alter it- or can a panel be added in later on? If its lace-up there should be enough room to let it out?

    (£16!!!- What a bargain!)
