I have a big poofy prom dress that needs to be altered in length. Also, might need to get some beads replaced. Afraid to take the scissors to it myself. Can't take it to the dress shop because they only alter the ones they sold. Can anybody help me?

You might try calling some dry cleaners and see if they know of someone who does alterations.

what ever, and who ever you take it to, dont wait untill the last minute,and make sure they know exactly what you want,and make SURE, you let them know WHEN, you need it back,and you try it on soon enough, that any mistakes can be fixed in time before the prom.

I know you probably already know this, but I have seen a lot of problems with these things before...trust me :oops:

Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, I thought you out grew wearing dresses? :12224 :shock: :122245

I often wondered why you always chose to dress like a lady during Halloween. This explains a lot of unanswered questions!
