Client ordered a prom dress online and she couldn't Zip it. #promdress #alterations

This was the longest consultation I have ever had and I was adamant they find another dress because it was not going to be worth it.

I guess it was worth it for my client because we went from tears to smiles.

I explained everything that was going to happen but the client was fine with what I was going to do.

Alterations seen but not mentioned. I lowered the zipper and added lace ties to the top of the dress.

I also had to expand the armhole because it was really small and that's why I had to make the sleeve bigger

How much did I charge... NOT ENOUGH 🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️

Original dress is a Valdrin Sahiti dress found on a knock off site

This is not an alteration. This is a water into wine miracle.

the way the company photoshopped the mannequins waist 😂😂😂

[jillcampbell]

Yikes! The fabric looks like the stuff that I see in the Halloween costume section at my local fabric store.

[katrinathemaker]

You did a whole MIRACLE! Awesome craftsmanship ❤

I'll never understand young women buying cheap knock off dresses that are not even in the same ballpark as their actual size and then spend a lot of money having it fixed just to still look like they're wearing cheap knock off dresses because no amount of alterations can change that crap fabric. Just buy a slightly more expensive dress that actually fits, it'll probably be cheaper than the cheap dress + the cost of alterations and look better.

You're literally a miracle worker. Basically reconstructing the dress from scratch! Those pictures of the mannequins with tiny photoshopped waists makes me so sad. As a rule it 's best not to buy super expensive formalwear online, but especially when the mannequin itself doesn't even look human!! Marketers must be stopped.

Okay I don't know anything about sewing but from that very first picture you showed of her in it I could tell that it was so poorly made! You worked a miracle!

[EphanyasisOwleyes]

I'm a seamstress and I used to be a custom clothing designer maybe I still am but my point is do people really know how to shop for their real size online because it just seems like people don't know what to put down for their size anymore

[sandinixon]

you did more than an alteration, you remade the entire dress! Beautiful job! the young girl looked so nice in it.

[sfa]

How could anyone “love” that dress? It’s horrendous, but at least you saved the day

[anitas]

Aww you made her so happy. It’s a wonderful thing you do for people. I know there’s a lot to be said about bodies too big, dresses too cheap and too small, etc, but in the end, you are kind and helpful and you make people happy. It’s wonderful.

Oh my god. You are a miracle worker! I was with you in the first half about shawty just picking another dress, but you did that! YOU DID THAT!!!! INSTANTLY SUBBED WITH NOTIFICATIONS ON!!!!

[gmurray]

I am amazed at how well you are able to fit these dresses to your clients. I do have one question-- are they giving their correct measurements? Some of these dresses are disasters. I pray they are paying you a more than proper amount for the miracles you work.

[doloressims]

You are a miracle worker for a load of women who don't understand how to take their measurements so they order the correct size! OMG it is killing me.

[abbeydabbles]

Just watching this again and I'm like, Monde is truly a blessing ❤

[luciatat]

A much simple solution in her hands would have been to return the dress and buy one in her actual size, even if it had to be a different dress. But you did your best with what you had, like always!

[stillpril]

Awww. They sold her a dream and you made it come true.

[LindaSieker-yp]

Your videos are so fun!!! I cannot believe the stuff people buy and expect you to fix it
You are a miracle worker!

[huyenly]

That dress just doesn't fit, not just zip up.
You are a magician! Very talented.

[chrmurr]

After seeing so many people order online and seeing the disaster they received, I would do better if I purchase my dress from a bridal shop.
