eeek.. yes the dress fabric is a charmeuse.
and the price range is also correct.
the exact price is actually at $2575, not including tax...
i have come to terms with my dress costing more than a used car, hah. =P
2. Your dress looks at least $2k to $4K am I right?
I would say the alterations between $600 and up, depending on the material if you are putting more into it or adding embellishments.
But if you are using this exact material as pictured, it is very difficult to deal with, I mean precision is key her by the seamstress.
3. $2k+! That's ridiculous!
My wife spent perhaps almost $300 for alterations this past September. My mom could have done it for her for free.
I guess it does depend on the dress and maybe the city you are in. I'd shop around for a reputable place. But if you can afford it, then why not?
Congrats and good luck.
4. I paid $120 just for the hem. I would have paid an extra 130 for them to take in the sides, but luckily they found my size on a manikin.
