Petite Prices
Q: I’m short (4-foot-11-inches to be exact). Would it be cheaper to have a dress made than to buy one and pay for the alterations?
A:
Like any other type of shopping, it’s best to explore and compare prices before making any decisions. Shop for petite lines of bridal wear, which could fit perfectly from the get-go. If you have your heart set on a regular designer gown, you’ll have no choice but to pay the extra cost for alterations. Something like a simple hem might not break the bank but it ultimately depends on the extent to which your dress is altered.
