What the Construction Allows
The lace-up corset back allows some adjustment in how the bodice closes, while the basque waist leads into the full jacquard skirt. The tiered ruffles add volume and movement, especially through the train. The detachable bow strap changes the neckline styling. Our seamstresses must evaluate the structured bodice and layered skirt before recommending alterations.

At Dimitra Designs in Greenville, SC, our master seamstresses with 40+ years of alterations expertise evaluate the construction before explaining which adjustments may be possible.
