Tailoring: Preventing Wardrobe Malfunctions, One Step at a Time.

This summer I discovered the marvellous benefits of tailoring garments. Although I've always been a sucker for "If it doesn't fit well, leave it"- methodology, I have two lovely dresses in my closet that contour well to my body, but were initially huge disasters. I'm talking, two sizes too big. Sometimes factories don't make extremely small sizes, so you need to hustle fast (especially if you're in a bridal party!). I highly recommend Studio Kim in Toronto; she somehow made my bridesmaid dress fit me in 7 days with no additional alterations.

Exhibit A: My dress was taken in from a size 2 to size 0 - Kim did a great job.

Exhibit B: My mother's dress was also taken in a few inches, and shorted into a "high-low" skirt. Alterations done by Montgomery Alterations in the west end of Toronto. This is also where I did my dress from shetheinside, which I will post at a later date.

And of course, some extra photos of the wedding because it was amazing!

The bride & groom having a great time with the samba dancers. So cute!

I stole this one from their photographer. It was too pretty to pass up!
